Canasta for Windows Information File ==================================== Canasta is a strategy cardgame for Windows 3.1. It is the computer version of the classic Canasta game played all over the world. Canasta is played with two players, and in this computer version that means you against the machine. There are three difficulty levels, so you always have an opponent that matches your skills. The rules are challenging, but the online Help file (press F1 when you're in Canasta) explains them all. Once you know the game, it's great fun! INSTALLING CANASTA ================== Follow the steps below to install Canasta : 1. Start Windows. 2. Run the program 'install.exe' in the directory with the Canasta files. That is usually the floppy, CD-ROM or download directory you received Canasta on. 3.

If you let the install program create a Program Manager group, double-click on the 'Canasta 2.5' icon to start the game, otherwise run 'canasta.exe' to start.
