GAME PLAY INSTRUCTIONS

Can you handle the frenzied pace and put the pieces together?! Frenzy is a fast paced game of strategy and quick analytical thinking. It's easy to learn and impossible to master.

Your objective is simple: fill the 6 empty circles with fitting pie wedges (displayed in the center circle) in order to clear the completed pie and earn yourself points. The higher the ratio of like colored wedges in a completed pie, the higher number of points you're awarded. Completed pies filled with 6 pie wedges of the same color earn the maximum number of points (25) AND earn you an additional life.

Your enemy is time: Should the timer expire before a wedge is placed, a life is lost. As you fill your pockets with more and more points, the timer is gradually quickened. Simple.

STRATEGY

Wedge positions are dealt at random. You must negotiate between the temptation to score a maximum number of points and staying alive in order to do so. CAUTION: This is a game of skill, not chance. Your reflexes, flexible mind, quick decision making AND YOUR STRESS MANAGMENT determine how long you'll last - not the God of Wedges.
