Installation

Supported Phones

In general all Series 60 phones are supported. There are, however, certain issues with some phones. The Siemens SX-1 will play the sound delayed. The Nokia 7650 might cause trouble when you try to install the game because of the installed game's size of about 500 KB.

Installation Process

After downloading the game .SIS file from this site, transfer it to your phone via Bluetooth or Email. The automatic installation feature of your phone should then guide you through the installation process. Make sure you install it to your memory card - if your phone has one :)

Documentation

Keys

Left softkey for selection

Right softkey for cancel/back or (un)pausing the game

* key for releasing and catching the ball

Stick / cursor pad for moving the bat

Starting the Game

In the title screen press left softkey to see main menu. Select "New Game". Select difficulty and start level. (Available number of levels depends on installed level set.) Press left softkey again to start the game.

Playing the Game

Press * key in Get Ready screen to start playing the next level. Use left/right to control the bat and use the * key to release the ball. Try using left/right together with * key to give the ball some more speed and control its direction.

Make sure you hit the ball before it leaves the bottom boundary of the screen. If you don't catch the ball, it is lost and you will have to continue the level with the next ball - if you still have one left..

Tractor Beam

When you're not holding the ball, you can use the * key to activate the tractor beam of the bat. Then you can catch the ball and keep it glued to the bat until you release the * key. Using this technique you can also save a ball that is about to be lost..
