With their King’s Quest and Quest for Glory series, for example, they would include two manuals with the games: one for all technical issues (controlling your character, interacting with the world, etc) and one purely devoted to the game itself, it’s backstory, characters and such. Most times those last ones were pretty artsy and beautiful to look at, not to mention read, like the poem in King’s Quest V.
Manuals for a more civilized times, that’s for sure. Nobody would even think today to include TWO MANUALS with a game. Right now even a full colour manual is something to be happy with, go figure.
Oh well.
