K I N G ... A LAND & RESOURCE MANAGEMENT GAME Note: This is a basic game, see BASIC instructions. C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S ! ----------------------------- YOU HAVE JUST BEEN ELECTED PREMIER OF SETUTS DETINU , A SMALL COMMUNIST ISLAND 30 BY 70 MILES LONG. YOUR JOB IS TO DECIDE UPON THE COUNTRY'S BUDGET AND TO DISTRIBUTE MONEY TO YOUR COUNTRYMEN FROM THE COMMUNAL TREASURY. THE MONEY SYSTEM IS RALLODS AND EACH PERSON NEEDS 100 RALLODS PER YEAR TO SURVIVE. YOUR COUNTRY'S INCOME COMES FROM FARM PRODUCE AND THE TOURISTS THAT VISIT YOUR MAGNIFICIENT FORESTS; HUNTING, FISHING, ETC. HALF OF YOUR LAND IS FARM LAND, WHICH ALSO HAS EXCELLENT MINERAL CONTENT AND MAY BE SOLD TO FOREIGN INDUSTRY FOR STRIP MINING. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS WREAKS THE LAND FOR ALL OTHER USES, AND IN ADDITION, THESE FOREIGN INTERESTS IMPORT ( AND SUPPORT ) THEIR OWN LABOR SUPPLY. IT COSTS YOU BETWEEN 10 AND 15 RALLODS PER SQ. MILE TO PLANT CROPS. YOUR GOAL IS TO COMPLETE AN 8 YEAR TERM OF OFFICE ... GOOD LUCK !!
