CFL Charlie


CFL Charlie game

Rules for the game:

  1. Get CFL Charlie to pick up a CFL bulb in the basement. Use the Left, Right, Up and Down arrow buttons on they keyboard to move CFL Charlie from room to room, and then up (down) the stairs to go to other floors.
  2. Hit the "spacebar" to either "change" the lightbulb, or once you have changed it to a CFL bulb -- to turn the light off. There are game messages in the left-hand bottom corner if you make mistakes. Also make sure you hit the spacebar when you are standing in front of the TVs or computer in order to turn those off at any time (note: they are energy hogs)
  3. You have to be reasonably near the lightbulb when holding a CFL in order to "change" it, as well as to then turn it off
  4. If you take too long (about 14 seconds) to get to a light when carrying a CFL you will "drop it", and have to go back down and get another. If you break too many you won't have enough and the game is over!
