Movement and Selection
* Click a Troll to select it.
* Tell a Troll to go somewhere by clicking a point on the map.
* Click a Troll a second time to de-select it (when no Troll is
selected you can inspect any object on the map by clicking it).
* You can also drag the map with the mouse.
Actions
* Pressing Space carries out an action such as Mine, Eat Mushroom,
Eat Fish, etc. depending on where the Troll is standing.
* Mining allows a Troll to gather Stone and Gold (see details
below), but also risks an encounter with a Monster!
* If a Troll gets tired of Mining it may demand some Fish.
* Trolls are afraid of Water, so in order for them to swim to a
fishing ground, they need to eat a Psychedelic Mushroom for
courage.
* Mushrooms can be planted on Mud patches. Once a mushroom is
fully grown it can be eaten by a Troll.
Mining, Resources & Building
* Mining allows the Trolls to gather Stone and Gold.
* These are used to build the Troll Castle (which is the objective
of the game).
* The status bar at the top of the screen shows how much Stone and
Gold the Trolls have, as well as the progress towards building
the Troll Castle.
* Walls must be built first - completely covering the yellow Sand
square. After that, a Tower must be built on each corner.
Finally, each Tower can be upgraded to a Gold Tower by pressing
Space. This completes the Castle and the game.
