Quidditch Training is based on Quidditch, a game invented by J. K. Rowling and described in her Harry Potter books.
The player takes controll of a Quidditchplayer. The rules are a bit different from the original: There are no teams playing against each other but only one player. Flying on a broomstick, he trys to achieve as many points as possible until the time is over.
Most important besides the player are the four balls:
 |
one quaffle |
 |
one snitch |
 |
two bludgers |
There are to different ways to score:
But there is also a possibility to loose points and time:
To find the goal and the quaffle there are two arrows that guide the player. To find the goal you have to fly in the direction of the yellow arrow. Following the red arrow leeds to the quaffle. If the objects are allready on the screen the arrows disapear.
If the timelimit is reached one has gained a certain amount of point. If your score is high enough you can enter your name in the local highscore. Then the program generates a matching password and with these informations you can enter your name and score in the international highscore on the homepage.
To install QT simply unzip the file "QT_engl.zip" into a directory on your Harddisk. There you will find the gamefile "Quidditch Training.exe". Execute it to start the game. If you start the game for the first time it creates a highscorefile in the game directory.
