SPARTAN IS A GAME SIMILAR TO JOUST.

COLORED BUBBLES WILL FLOAT AROUND FOR
A WHILE AND THEN TURN INTO A DIAMOND.
RUN OVER THE DIAMOND TO PICK IT UP.
THE OTHER CREATURES ARE THE TURTLE,
WHO CHANGES DIAMONDS INTO HORSES BUT
POSES NO DANGER TO YOU; THE SHARK, WHO
KILLS YOU AND CHANGES DIAMONDS BACK TO
HORSES; THE JELLYFISH, WHO KILLS YOU
BUT DOES NOTHING TO THE DIAMONDS OR
THE SEAHORSES; AND THE EEL, WHO KILLS
YOU AND DOES NOTHING TO THE DIAMONDS
OR THE SEAHORSES.
