===================================DISCLAIMER==================================
I have decided not to allow websites other than Gamefaqs (www.gamefaqs.com),
IGN (faqs.ign.com) & Gamespot (www.gamespot.com) to host my FAQs from now on.
Please don't ask, because I will not grant permission. It's just that too many
sites don't keep their version of my FAQ up to date which makes for a lot of
hassle in my mailbox.
So if anyone sees this FAQ on any site other than those mentioned above, please
let me know and I will take care of the situation, thanks.
Just to make things crystal clear for some people, this FAQ is not to appear
anywhere at the following URLs:

(C) THE GAME
###############################################################################
Bricklayer J. Gastronomy
This game has you racing around a track against a second car. The only catch,
is that you have to answer math questions in order to move along the track.
###############################################################################
(C-01) HOW TO PLAY
###############################################################################
Before you get started, you need to choose which mode you'll be playing. The
left number ranges from 1-9 and represents the difficulty of the math
questions. The right number ranges from 1-2, and 1 means you play against the
CPU, while 2 means you play against a second human player.
For each turn you get to choose whether your question is worth moving ahead 2
or 3 more spaces on the track [it takes one extra space to turn on a corner].
After this point, the question appears and use "left" and "right" to move to
either digit [the answers can be 3 digits maximum], then use "up" and "down" to
select the actual numbers themselves. Once you think you have the answer you
hit "fire" to enter your answer.
If you're correct, you move the number of spaces that you chose earlier. If
you're wrong, then you stay where you are. In either case it's the other
player's turn to answer a question [you don't get to see the CPU's question].
If you stop on an "X" you get an extra turn. If you stop on an upside-down
"T", then you get to move 1-4 spaces without answering a question.
If your cars crash into one another on the narrow sections, then one of you
will get forced off of the road. That person's next few turns will repair the
car until you can race once again. Once either of you reaches the finish line,
the game is over and you can start another one.

(C-02) DIFFICULTIES
###############################################################################
There are nine possible difficulties to play the game on, and they each involve
the following.
1 - Adding two single-digit numbers, or subtract two single-digit numbers.
[ie: 1 + 2 = 3]
2 - Adding a single-digit number to a single or double-digit number, or
subtracting a single-digit number from another single-digit number.
[ie: 1 + 12 = 13]
3 - Adding a single or double-digit number to another single or double-digit
number, or subtracting a single-digit number from a single or double-digit
number.
[ie: 12 - 1 = 11]
4 - Multiply a single-digit number with another single-digit number, or divide
a single or double-digit number by a single-digit number.
[ie: 12 / 6 = 2]
5 - Multiply a single-digit number with another single-digit number, or divide
a single or double-digit number by a single-digit number.
[ie: 9 x 2 = 18]
6 - Multiply a single or double-digit number with another single-digit number,
or divide a single or double-digit number by a single-digit number.
[ie: 12 x 2 = 24]
7 - Multiply a single or double-digit number with another single-digit number,
or divide a single or double-digit number by a single-digit number, or
subtracting a single-digit number from another single-digit number, or
adding a single-digit number to another single-digit number.
[ie: 4 - 4 = 0]
8 - Multiply a single or double-digit number with another single-digit number,
or divide a single or double-digit number by another single or double-digit
number, or subtracting a single-digit number from a single or double-digit
number, or adding a single or double-digit number to a single-digit number.
[ie: 24 / 12 = 2]
9 - Multiply a single or double-digit number with another single-digit number,
or divide a single or double-digit number by another single or double-digit
number, or subtracting a single or double-digit number from another single
or double-digit number, or adding a single or double-digit number to a
single-digit number.
[ie: 24 / 12 = 2]

(D) EXPERIMENTAL
###############################################################################
For a little while now I've had a paypal link in all my FAQs at the very bottom
here. Mainly as a small experiment since a few other FAQ authors have also had
the same idea.
I had a few people email me before I put this link in because they wanted to
send money, so it's here for those people.
For the record I've received about $87 (which works out to a bit more in
Canadian lol) last I checked, so I've been getting cases of pop and making some
excellent progress on a few FAQs.
If you don't want to send money or can't then send me an email, it's nice to
hear what people thought about my work and there's always room for improvement.
My email address and paypal address for those that want to contribute are both

Many thanks, and I hope you continue to use my work!
