Setting Up
Set up your PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system according to the instructions supplied with your system. Check that the system is turned on (the on/standby indicator is green).
Insert the Buzz!™ Junior: RoboJam disc in the system with the label side facing up. Attach game controllers and other peripherals as appropriate. Follow the on-screen instructions and refer to this manual for information on using the software.
Memory Card
To save game settings and progress, insert a memory card (8MB)(for PlayStation®2) into MEMORY CARD slot 1 of your PlayStation®2 system. You can load saved game data from the same memory card or any memory card (8MB)(for PlayStation®2) containing previously saved games.
Buzz!™ Junior: RoboJam features an autosave function that saves progress after a save game file has been created. At certain points during the game, a "Save" icon will be displayed on-screen indicating that progress is being saved. While the icon is on screen, DO NOT remove the memory card (8MB) (for PlayStation®2) or turn off your console.

Main Menu
Press the colored button that matches your game choice.
Play Game
Press the blue button to play a new game. You now have two choices:
•
QUICK GAME: Just choose your game length and the color of your robot.
•
STANDARD GAME: Choose your game length, robot color and game difficulty, and pick a name for your robot.
Game Length
Choose from SHORT, MEDIUM, LONG or MARATHON. You might want to go for a short game to start off with, but if you're feeling up to it, go for the Marathon game to really show me what you're made of.
Choose a Robot
Next, each player must choose a robot - their colors match the buttons on your Buzz!™ Buzzer, so if you want to be blue, be quick! Once all players have chosen, press the Buzz!™ button to proceed.
If you've chosen the QUICK GAME, you'll go straight into the first game here. If you've chosen the STANDARD GAME, there are a few more fun options to choose.
Choose Difficulty
Choose from EASY, MEDIUM or HARD.
Enter Your Name

Press the orange button to swap the robot's body.
Ready to Play?
Then press the Buzz!™ button to start the first game. If you want to find out more about the games, meet me in The Games section later on in this manual and I'll give you a few tips.
Custom Game
In a CUSTOM GAME, you can choose which games to play and in which order.

Once you've filled your list, you can give it a name - it's just the same as naming your robot in the STANDARD game. Make sure you save your custom game. If you don't save it, you won't be able to play it again later so don't come crying to me - you'll make me rusty!
Play Custom Game
Once you've created your custom game, select this option to play. Choose which custom game you want to try, then carry on through the options as with a STANDARD game (see earlier in this manual for more details).
