Russki Duck -- How to play?



Hi all,

I'm digging out some old Apple //e games for grins, and have started playing 
Russki Duck.  I don't seem to have the instructions and can't find them on 
the web.  I tried reading the FAQ for help sites, but I can't view it.  I'm 
not even going to ask why...a quick glance through the newsgroup tells me 
this is a hot topic and I really don't want to get involved.

I can move around the map, pick up & drop items, and open boxes with the 
hammer.  I know you can get points by taking objects back to where they 
belong.  I know bombs scatter objects in a room.  I know you can find a duck 
in a box, and two pieces of a 'WIN' card.  And there is a CIA card that lets 
you pass a green barrier in the CIA building.  But I don't know what the goal 
of the game is.  Can anyone clue me in to this?

On another note, I read Scott G.'s post 'A Tale of Two Apples.'  He made some 
interesting points.  I had an Apple //e, and was wanting a //gs, but then 
Apple more or less killed the //* line in favor of the Mac.  I have been on 
PC's ever since.  I've thought about buying a Mac now and then, but always 
decide my money is better spent upgrading my PC system.  Apple is just too 
proud of their computers.
