FLUFFY

™

AGES 5 & UP

The ALERT icon (the sixth icon) is to remind you of some action your E-Pal needs. The flashing alert icon means your E-Pal needs to feed, sleep, clean and/or play. Remember to try to guess what action is needed for your E-Pal first. If you don't guess right, the icon of the correct action will flash with the alert icon. When you have both E-Pals (FLUFFY and TREVOR) activated, the alert icon may flash for whichever E-Pal needs action! Once you have satisfied your E-Pal's need, the icons stops flashing.

GETTING STARTED

Pull the tab out behind the unit to activate the game.

You will see the word TIME appear on screen with an hour glass.

It's time to set the time. It's important to set the correct time so that you can keep FLUFFY and TREVOR on schedule for their many activities!

Use the LEFT and RIGHT buttons to move to the correct hour. To move from AM to PM, you will have to scroll through all the AM hours first. When you reach the correct hour, press ENTER.

This will take you right into the game which begins with an opening animation of a magic wand opening the door that leads to FLUFFY!

The game takes place at HOGWART’S SCHOOL where both FLUFFY and TREVOR live with their masters, HAGRID and NEVILLE. FLUFFY is HAGRID's three-headed dog. TREVOR is the toad that belongs to NEVILLE.

Once you automatically see FLUFFY through the door in the opening of the game, you must keep FLUFFY in good shape for 2 days. You keep FLUFFY in good shape by taking good care of him.

When you see the ALERT icon flash on screen, you need to figure out what FLUFFY is doing.

For example, maybe FLUFFY needs food. So press the MODE button to

get into the activity mode selection and then use the LEFT and RIGHT

But if you can’t figure out which of the activities FLUFFY needs, don't worry. If you don't figure which activity to play, soon the screen will actually flash the icon of the activity that she needs, for example, the FOOD icon would flash on screen.

Then use the LEFT and RIGHT buttons as described above to toggle to the food icon and press ENTER. Then play the FOOD game. If you win the game, you will still score points -- although not as many as you would have scored had you figured out on your own that FLUFFY was hungry and needed food!

If you don't select the correct activity according to the alert within one minute, you will LOSE points.

If you can keep FLUFFY's score above 80 for 2 days, then you will hear RIBBIT! SFX (at 12:00 am on the third day) -- letting you know that TREVOR has been activated!

Once TREVOR has been activated, you can toggle between both pets -- and have two pets to take care of instead of one! But only ONE of these two pets will ever appear on screen at a time.

While the games are all about FLUFFY and TREVOR, you'll also see some other friends appearing on screen from time to time, including HARRY POTTER™, NEVILLE, HAGRID and HERMIONE.

Your E-Pals won't die. But if your score for FLUFFY drops below 20, then you see FLUFFY retreat behind the door again. If your score for TREVOR drops below 20, then you see him hop off screen never to return. In order to play with a pet after you've lost him, you need to press the RESET button and start all over again!

If you lose FLUFFY within the first 2 days, then you will not get a chance to play with TREVOR. Playing with TREVOR must be earned -- by keeping FLUFFY in good shape for 2 days first! There is one exception to this -- entering a secret code to activate TREVOR early! More on that later!

There are 7 "games" for the player to play with FLUFFY and TREVOR. Your scores will continually rise and fall depending on how well you perform in the games!

FUNCTIONS

You can play 7 different games each for both FLUFFY and TREVOR -- 14 games in all. In addition to your games, your game also has a clock, an alarm function, a stopwatch, sound effects, name editing, score keeping, a pause feature, and a contrast level to obtain the clearest possible on-screen action!

The activities include:

FLUFFY’S SLEEPING Music puts FLUFFY right to sleep. HARRY POTTER™ will appear and play HAGRID's flute. This will put FLUFFY right to sleep. It will take a 3 button code to activate HARRY POTTER™ to play the flute and put FLUFFY to sleep.

The combination will be a combination of the LEFT, RIGHT, and ENTER buttons. It is a random combination each time you play. Do the correct 3 code combination, and you will see FLUFFY curl up and go to sleep. When you enter an incorrect combination, FLUFFY will bark at you! When you input a wrong key, the pattern will be shown again.

To wake up FLUFFY, enter the sleep mode and play the minigame again, once again performing a 3-button code.

When FLUFFY is asleep, he can't perform other activities! So you have to wake him up before playing any other games!

FLUFFY'S CLEANING

You can only clean FLUFFY when FLUFFY is asleep. So you

must have enough "sleep" points stored. If you enter this

activity and have enough "sleep" points stored, then you will

automatically see HARRY appear and play his flute.

While HARRY plays the flute, you can keep FLUFFY clean

and FLUFFY's coat shiny and healthy by combing. It's easy!

You will see the opening animation. Then the game will start with HARRY playing the flute. Then either the "L", "R" or "E" symbol will appear on screen for a very short time. Then one of FLUFFY's heads will appear (the left head when "L" appears, the right head when "R" appears and the center head when "E" appears). When you see the head, press the correct button.

For example, if "L" appears on screen followed by FLUFFY's left head, then you must press the "LEFT" button to win the game! If "R" appeared, you need to press the RIGHT button to win. If "E" appears, press the ENTER button to win the game!
