DESCRIPTION:
-----------
   Boggled is my rendition of the classic Parker Brothers game "Boggle".
The object of the game is to find as many words as possible from among
16 lettered cubes. You play against the computer, which has access to 
a dictionary of 32,000 words. 

   This release is a significant upgrade from version 1.0. It includes
SuperVGA (640x480) screens, 3D-rendered graphics, digital sound effects,
user-defined dictionaries and more.



REQUIREMENTS:
------------
   A 386/486 processor
   DOS 3.0 or greater
   SVGA video card with VESA driver/support (640x480x256)
   At least 460k of conventional RAM
   At least 305k of Extended Memory (XMS) - 912k recommended
   Approximately 900k of disk space
   Optional sound card (Supports PC Speaker, Sound Blaster & SB Pro,
			Adlib & Disney Sound Source)
