Bricks have different point values and hardness.

    Enter:  WALL

2)  Read the copyright notice, then continue:

    Press:  <ENTER>

3)  The wall has already been built and is
ready to go.  Select a brick with the arrow
keys or mouse and watch the wall begin to
crumble.

4)  The computer will select a brick to play
against you.  Watch the scores at the top of
the screen.

5)  It is your turn again.  Select a brick
