Let’s hear a little bit more about the ...

as “Run for Your Life with a Trophy while under Heavy Fire,” the fi rst
player to carry the gold trophy for the specifi ed time is the winner!
Dodgeball
Smack other players with dodgeballs while avoiding them yourself.
The last player standing is the winner!
King of the Hill
The fi rst player to stay on the moving patch of glowing green swirls for
the specifi ed number of minutes is the winner!
Fragfest
The clock is ticking ... . How many kills can you rack up before time
runs out? The player who disposes of the most players in the specifi ed
number of minutes is the winner!
Chicken
You’re on the run from a fl ock of fl esh-eating fowl! Slaughter a chicken
with a weapon to release a star. Collect the specifi ed number of stars
to win!
As you start inflicting pain on your opponents in one of our spectacular battle arenas,
you’ll notice all sorts of nifty on-screen status indicators in your Heads-Up Display
(HUD) that will let you know how you’re doing. You’ll find these status indicators
in the top-left corner of the
Whacked!
game screen. So make your fighting more
effective ...
Use Your HUD!
Indicates the
amount of time
remaining or
accrued.
Indicates the
number of stars
you’ve picked up.
Indicates the
number of lives
or amount of
health you have
remaining.
Indicates the total
number of kills
you’ve accrued.
Another indicator of who’s in
the lead is the “leader beam.”
Simply look for the player
bathed in a heavenly column of
light. If you can’t see the leader
beam, it may be shining on you!
In Combat game mode, the
leader loses more stars than
any other player when killed. If
you want to rack up star points,
look for the leader beam and
do some damage. If you’re in
the lead, watch your back!
The Health Bar rises and falls
to refl ect your changing health
status.
When the Health Bar is
depleted, you are dead dead
dead! (Don’t worry, though—
death is only temporary.
You’ll respawn after dying.)
These icons appear in the HUD with numbers beside them to indicate status.
