As a man named Buford, level by level, you climb to the top of a hotel 
to tryto save Tiny Mabel from Horrible Hank.

In each level, there are a few stories of the building, which all have 
window son the outside.  To climb up to the top to beat the level, you 
must wait for a window to open, then press up on the control disc to 
climb up.

However, there are a few more things in the levels to make them more 
interesting.  If you run into a boulder that Horrible Hank throws, a 
rat, or a bird, then you'll lose a life.  Lose all your lives, and 
you'll have to start your game all over again!  But, if you run into a 
heart, you'll get temporary invincibility and 50 points added to the 100 
you automatically get for beating a level, then another 50 points for 
each thing that you run into that would normally hurt you when you're 
invincible.

After you beat all the levels, you'll start at the beginning of the 
building again, except you're score will keep going, and the levels will 
be harder than the first time around! Good luck!

Here are some tips, approaches, etc. that you can use for winning at 
this game.

* Get as many hearts and run into as many things while you're invincible 
as possible.  I usually stay at the bottom of each level until I get a 
heart and sometimes run into something, then as I'm climbing to the top, 
I get at least one heart and run into at least one thing.  I've gotten 
something like 1050 points after only the fourth level on the first time 
through the building doing this!

* If you're on the fourth level or so, and you have a lot of lives, jump 
off the side of the building.  That's right, you heard me.  Jump off.  
By doing this, you will still keep your score, except you start with it 
at the bottom of the building, so you can gain more points. And, as far 
as I know, you only loose one life.
