Press and hold <Esc>. After 2-3 seconds you will see the message "Suspend mode." If you want to switch your Cybiko computer to Suspend
mode, release the <Esc> button. To switch your Cybiko computer off, hold <Esc> until the message "Power OFF" appears. Then release the
button. Now your Cybiko computer is off.
SUSPEND MODE
Cybiko computer automatically switches to the Suspend mode when it is inactive for a period of time.
In Suspend mode:
§ The screen is cleared.
§ Cybiko sends and receives signals from your surrounding environment at a quarter of the frequency of active mode.
Note: This mode allows you to save your battery charge. So, if you don't intend to use your Cybiko computer for a bit, we recommend
putting it into Suspend mode.
How to get into Suspend Mode:
Press and hold <Esc> until the message "Suspend mode" appears, then release the button,
OR
Press <Fn><Esc>.
How return to Active Mode:
Press and hold <Esc> for 2-3 seconds, or press <Fn><Esc> to return to Active mode.
When you come out of Suspend mode, you'll be able to go straight back to the game or application you were just using!
RECHARGING YOUR BATTERIES
With fully charged batteries, and depending on your environment, your Cybiko computer will last 3 to 10 hours in Active mode (Chat or Lost in
Labyrinth), and from 1 to 2 days in Passive mode (Calculator or Clock). The most power-consuming operations are Interactive games, Vibration
Alert and RF Transmission.
How to recharge the batteries on your Cybiko computer:
1. Plug the charger into a wall socket.
2. Plug the charging adaptor into your Cybiko computer. Charging will begin.
Note: You can continue to play while your Cybiko computer is charging. Full charging will take about 10 hours. It is best to recharge
batteries overnight and leave your Cybiko computer on.
Note: If you're not planning to use your Cybiko computer for more than one day, we advise you turn it off. Completely running down
your Cybiko computer lowers the life span of the batteries.
Note: Don't leave your unit turned off while charging batteries for more than 15 hours, or damage to the batteries could occur. But
don't worry, there's no problem charging with your unit turned on!
10 • ON-LINE GUIDE
AUTO SHUTDOWN
When the batteries are super low, you will see the message “Battery dead” and your Cybiko computer will automatically go to Power OFF mode
unless you plug it into the charging unit.
When Auto Shutdown occurs, plug your Cybiko computer into the charging unit and just keep on playing!

Labyrinth is a memorial to human greatness, happiness, kindness and cruelty. The first civilization perished 200 thousand years ago, and left a
fearful lesson for humans. Everyone knows it exists but few have returned from its heart..

CYLANDIA
Welcome to CyLandia – the bright and mysterious CyWorld, which is a life simulator where your new friend called Cy-B lives and grows.
Learning about life and developing good habits, teleporting and trading with other players, getting married and giving birth to new Cy-Bs – this is
one interesting, fun CyLife game…enjoy!
The goal of the game
The goal of the game is to have your Cy-B live a full life to a ripe old age. While playing CyLandia you can earn money, give birth to little Cy-Bs
and more. The more developed your Cy-B is the higher your score you receive at the end.
Main Features
One human day is equal to one year in CyLandia. Each year in CyLandia has 4 days and 4 nights. When the moon appears in the window,
Cy-B has to go to bed.
Your Cy-B can do many things. Cy-B eats, drinks, goes to the bathroom, sleeps, etc., etc., etc. Initially you must assist your Cy-B to execute
these basic tasks. But soon, with good training, your Cy-B will get in the habit of doing these things on its own. To encourage good habits, be
sure to reward your Cy-B for doing a good job.
Your Cy-B has the 'genetic predisposition' of its parents. This means that if Cy-B’s parents were genetically intelligent, this Cy-B could also
be rather clever. But you'll still need to help him study - remember, nothing worth having is ever easy.
Trading with other CyLandia players – Train your Cy-B right and you could become a millionaire! You will start with a set amount of CyBucks –
Cy-B's money. You must manage his/her money intelligently by buying necessities wisely, investing in shares, and even selling goods to make
money. Take chances, be aggressive and see what happens!
Teleporting Cy-B to other devices. He/she just may meet their future spouse, get married and have a new Cy-Baby – Cool!
Pay attention to the CyLandia Newspaper for late-breaking news like new job openings, CyBurger shortages, clues, share offerings and more.
Start the game
BEFORE YOU START: Once you start the game, you cannot stop while your Cy-B is alive.
Your Cy-B is a small, artificially intelligent creature you must care for and train everyday. If you do not care for your Cy-B, his/her life will end and
cannot be regenerated.
Note: CyLandia Game continues while using another Game or Application and EVEN WHEN YOU TURN YOUR CYBIKO COMPUTER
OFF.
Run CyLandia often, especially when your Cy-B is small. Cy-Bs need your attention to learn good habits that stay with them for the rest of their
lives.
ON-LINE GUIDE MULTI-PLAYER WIRELESS GAMES • 21
Check your Cy-B at least 4-8 times per day. To ensure your Cy-B is getting his/her needs met, be sure to check on him/her often.
How to Start the Game
Press the <F7> button on the Shortcut Bar, or open the Games Desktop and choose the CyLandia icon.
Your Cybiko computer will display the Intro-screen, then you will see Cy-B's apartment. Use <ç è> to view the different rooms in the apartment.
If you don't want to start the game now, DO NOT TOUCH THE DOOR. Press <Esc> to exit.
To start the game, touch the Door by moving the focus over the Door and pressing <Enter>.
A small Cy-B enters the flat. You're on your way in CyLandia!
First level: Cy-B – baby
This period lasts approximately 3 years (3 human days). Your Cy-B is small, fragile and earless. You must teach your Cy-B how to:
§ go to the bathroom
§ eat
If you train him/her fast and well, your Cy-B can pass to the next period early, at one and a half years old, not the normal three years. Your score
rises every time your Cy-B does the necessary task without help. You'll receive bonus points for early completion of tasks.
§ drink
§ wash
Second level: Cy-B – teen
Your Cy-B is getting bigger, but is still earless. The main objective of this period is to prepare your Cy-B for a job and for family life.
Basics
During this time you must teach your Cy-B to:
§ clean his/her room
§ study (read books)
§ exercise and enter sports
If your Cy-B has not achieved a certain level of intelligence, strength and sociability, he/she will not be able to find a job and earn money.
You must remember that the better you train your Cy-B the better job he/she will get in the future. And don't forget about the score!
§ sleep at night
§ treat his/her diseases
§ communicate with other Cy-Bs
Getting a Job
At 15 years old, your Cy-B is allowed to work. Read the CyLandia News every day to check out the job market. If you were not lazy during the
previous period, your Cy-B should be able to get a very good job with a good salary.
Big Business
As you will find Cy-B has a list of basics needs consisting of:
§ Food
§ Drink
§ Water
You must purchase these items with CyBucks. If you buy them at the store or from a tradesman, they will be very expensive. You must find a way
to purchase them at the lowest price. CyLandia gives you this opportunity! First, you find a friend who sells you something at a reasonable price.
Second, you can buy shares. Every item is produced by one of three companies. When you buy stock in a company their products will be
cheaper for you to purchase. If you buy stock in all three companies, you achieve the lowest price.
There are 4 ways to get money in CyLandia:
§ You will get a small allowance, every year (one human day) while your Cy-B is under the age of 15.
§ You can get a job and earn a salary. Good jobs pay well and will cover your expenses.
§ You can sell goods to the store. This is a great way to get money instantly, but it is not very profitable, as stores do not pay well for goods they
buy.
§ The most profitable way to earn money is to sell goods to other CyLandia players and/or buy shares in companies (i.e. food, electric, etc.) The
more companies you own in the same field, and the more shares you collect, the cheaper prices will be for goods in the store. Then you can
buy these goods, sell them to other players and count your profits!
And it gets better…– you can earn money by selling your shares to others at a much higher price than you paid.
But remember – you must earn the right to buy stock. The CyLandia Newspaper proposes shares issued.
Also, you have a limited portfolio and can't buy everything, so, think about what you want for Cy-B, and have fun. You could live a full life
and…get rich!
§ Electricity
§ Telecoms
§ Medications
Third level: Cy-B – adult
Love and Marriage
At last your Cy-B is sporting ears – this is the symbol of maturity and shows that he/she is self-reliant. Now that your Cy-B is an adult and has a
job, he/she can also fall in love and get married. You need to be faithful and allow daily visits, or your Cy-B will not have the opportunity to get
married.
Giving Birth to Cy-B babies
Once married, your female Cy-B can have a baby. Although this happens very rarely, it could happen to you! A baby Cy-B will appear if the
conditions are just right. After the little one arrives, take care of him/her. Raise him/her just the way you did your first Cy-B, but wait…. now you
need more money to buy food to feed everyone! Have fun!
22 • ON-LINE GUIDE
Death
When your Cy-B has lived a long, prosperous life in CyLandia, it's time for him/her to take a rest. One day you may find that your Cy-B has
disappeared. But don't worry, now you have a second generation and if the first generation did well… look out CyLandia – Gen2 will be a whole
new experience!! ....

8 BALL
Billiards is one of the most popular games. We want to introduce you to an exciting variation of billiards. The key ball is number 8, from which this
game gets its name, "8 Ball."
Game Rules
ON-LINE GUIDE MULTI-PLAYER WIRELESS GAMES • 23
This game is a variation of billiards. There are two basic balls colors - solids and stripes, and there are two special balls - cue ball (white) and 8
ball (black).
Break - the way a player's color is determined
The player, on the initial break, can choose any place on the right-most quarter of the table to shoot from. If a ball is sunk during the break, the
player that broke must shoot at that color for the rest of the game - that is his/her color for the game.
If both solid and stripe balls are sunk on the break, the table is still open, and the next sunk ball determines which player gets which color (solid or
stripe). If the player doesn't sink any ball on the break - the next turn goes to the partner. If any ball is sunk on the break, the player that broke
gets to shoot again.
About taking turn
You must shoot the cue ball so it hits the ball of your color and at least one ball of your color is sunk - this is a correct turn. If not - the next turn
goes to the partner
The rule of cue ball
If one player sinks the cue ball the turn goes to the other player who must place the cue ball on the right-most quarter of the table and shoot at
any ball on the rest of the table.
Victory
If a player sinks the 8 ball before he/she sinks all his/her color balls, that player loses.
Whenever a player has sunk all of his/her balls, he/she must shoot at the 8 ball. If he/she sinks the 8 ball, that player wins. If a player sinks the
cue ball while shooting the 8 ball he/she loses.
How to Start the Game
Press the <F5> button on the Shortcut Bar above the screen, or open the Games Desktop and choose the 8 Ball icon. The 8 Ball intro-screen will
appear. Press any key and the intro-screen will disappear.

selected partner and will display the message "Waiting for answer." If a connection is established, the game begins.
You can choose "2 Users 1 Unit" mode in the partner list to play the game on one Cybiko computer.
If you want to play against Cybiko computer, choose "Computer”.

Your goal is to become the Pinball champion by scoring the most points. The playing field contains six holes. If the ball falls into a hole, you score
a defined amount of points and an animated character appears.
If the ball falls into a hole, it will be shot from the top right of the playing field.
The board contains speeding obstacles. If the ball hits an obstacle, 10 points are added. You will be awarded a ball for each 5,000 points.

REVERSI 3
The game was invented by Mr. Waterman in England in 1888.
Rules of Reversi 3
The game is played on an 8x8 square board. Each player uses disks of certain color.
The object of the game is simple: dominate the board with your color!
Black always moves first.
Players take turns placing one disk on the board.
Capture - when any of one player's disks are surrounded on both sides (in any direction) by another player's disks. Captured disks then are
converted to another player's color.
A player's disk must be placed next to one of the partner's disks to create a capture.
If a player cannot make a legal move then the partner takes successive turns until the other player can make a legal move.
When it is no longer possible for either player to move, the game is over. Disks are counted and the player with the majority of his/her color disks
on the board is the winner.
Rating
In the game on two Cybiko computers there is a rating system.
Each player has a rating, which is formed from the game background. This consists of the opponent's rating and the result of the game. The
rating of a new player is 1,600 points.
Timer
In the game on two Cybikos, each player has the game time - the time for a player's own moves. If you exceed this time, you lose.
How to Start Reversi 3
Press the <F5> button on the Shortcut Bar above the screen, or open the Games Desktop and choose the Reversi 3 icon. The Reversi 3 introscreen will appear. Press any key and the intro-screen will disappear.

BLAZING BOARDS
Play Blazing Boards and show the world what kind of skills you have on your skateboard. Give it a chance, and you will be able to take the crown
of the best skater in the world!
Rules of the Game
Blazing Boards is a rear-view skateboarding racing game for 1 player. The object of the game is to grab the maximum points for performing tricks
while flying through the skateboard track in the shortest time possible!
When the game starts, you'll see your skater on the board. You have to wait for the numbers to count down from 3 to 1 on the screen. After this,
the word "Go!" flashes on the screen, and then you begin to control your hero - a skateboarder who performs different tricks and get points for
them. You must also complete the track in the limited amount of time available. Upon starting the game, each player has 2 minutes 30 seconds to
complete the race. Each time you pass checkpoint, your time to complete the level increases by 30 seconds. The objects that you may use to
perform astounding tricks are as follows:
• Use ramps that help you to jump.
• Use rails to perform tricks.
• Pick up bonuses - blaze icons - on your way. If you pick up 5 blaze icons, you start blazing - this'll greatly increase your speed and
jump height, and you will be able to complete more wicked tricks. Be on the alert and skate around obstacles that are in your way:
traffic cones and bars. If you are delayed, you’ll fall and waste a lot of time!
You may perform tricks in the air, on a rail and on the ground.
