Anyone out there is a lucky owner of the game with instructions manual?

I have crappy scans, and unfortunately the DPI setting is unknown.

Anyone there would be so kind to tell me the exact size of the booklet, both closed and open?

Also, if you would also send me a 300dpi scan of that booklet, it would be great! I am planning to add it to my game simulator.

Thanks Smile

I only have the game, no box or manual. But I do have a complete Trojan Horse, in the same series, if you should ever need it Smile ...

I love Trojan Horse, it's one of my favourite games!

I have been searching for one to simulate it. Thanks for your offer, but at the moment I am not starting any new games.

The new version of the simulator has just been released - 15 years after the original release wow!

Source code also available

You got a good copy of the manual? I know I had the game at one time, but I think I sold it. Apparently I was smart enough to scan the manual first... Just found them on an old hard drive.

Honestly wasn't looking for them since I didn't think I had them.. Found a folder full of manual scans I had completely forgotten about. Cool

Measurement notes:
Gakken Towering Rescue: 4 1/8 x 2 15/16 (inches) Per page

Little late, but I thought I'd mention it... Mr. Green

Sure I was so lucky to keep track of the email address of the man who provided me with the game manual scans over 15 years ago!

He was very kind to get the game from his basement and send me the scans in just a couple of days. Smile

Speaking of the "mystery box", is there anything that could be useful for my purpose?

I still miss good quality scans of several manuals including:

- Las Vegas (Bandai) at 150+ dpi
- Hippo Teeth (VTech, both mini and necklace) in English
- Hot Line (VTech, both mini and necklace) in English
- Bomb Fight (VTech, both mini and necklace) in English
- Monkey Jump (VTech handheld) in English
- Wild Man Jump (VTech tabletop) in English
- Crazy Chewy (VTech tabletop), original VTech version (not Innovator Electronics)
- Snoopy (tabletop)
- DK Jr. Nintendo (tabletop)
