    The idea of the game is to steer Sammy Snake around his garden eating

   the apples and avoiding the walls and poisonous mushrooms.  When he

   starts there are only Yellow apples on the screen, each worth 5 points.

   As he eats these Yellow apples, Red apples appear randomly to replace

   them, which are worth 10 points each.  As the red apples are eaten they

   are replaced by poisonous mushrooms which will cause instanteous death if

   touched.  To aid you in avoiding the mushrooms you can squirt venom at

   them causing them to shrivel and reappear in a new location.  The use of

   venom is however expensive, it costs 15 points per shot.

    Death can occur by contact with any of the following:

              Walls,
              Mushrooms,
              Your own tail.

    As you eat the Apples your tail will grow in length in proportion to the

   score received.
