GAME PLAY

Real Ghostbusters is a one or two player multi-level game in which the
players control members of the Ghostbusters team. The objective of the
game is to fight your way through each of 10 levels, capturing and storing
ghosts on the way. The end of each level features one or more guardians
who, when defeated, will yield a key allowing the player(s) to exit that
level. The characters are armed with both guns and Proton Beams. Creatures
can be shot with either weapon to transform them into ghosts. The ghosts
can then be zapped with the proton beam to store them in the player's backpack.
Ammunition for the gun is un-limited; the proton beam has a limited charge
which is displayed at the top of the screen. Also displayed are the number
of lives remaining and the number of ghosts collected. On reaching the
end of a level there is a short graphic sequence in which collected ghosts
are beamed into ghost storage. A bonus is awarded for each ghost. Some
creatures and objects (e.g. oildrums, wheel-barrows) also award the player
with bonuses: BEAM ENERGY UP

SHOT POWER UP

AURA POWER - providing a shield for a limited time.

SLIMER - the friendly ghost who will hover around the player, acting as
a shield and zapping any creatures he touches. (The latter two bonuses
will be lost if the player loses a life).
