Hints for LucasArts games

I even thought the Foo Fighters were just big fans for naming a 1997 song after an object in Zak! So, yeah: great song and fan of the band ever since.

And the word doesn´t even appear in the game. It just says “Use Jojo with pump” so if you don´t know the word you are none the wiser either.

Americans wouldn’t. Spanner is British.

If I recall correctly there’s a monkey that freezes on some occasions, so you pick it up and produce the right conditions to make it freeze because unless it’s a red herring that’s just a thing you do. Like a hundred rooms before it has an actual use. :wink:

(This isn’t a Sierra game where you’ll die doing that.)

:point_up_2:

I know, I was answering Milan’s comment about British people.

Huh?! I had to put the banana on the metronome to mesmerise him into a wrench shape. There was nothing about freezing.

Is it different in the SE or something?

I meant freezing into position.

It’s some random puzzle that I haven’t seen in a decade.

Your avatar was difficult though. I had no idea what a pulley was and I first played the version with only a text inventory.

Haha! :grinning:

They should have a “switch off annoying references to future games” tick box. :thinking:

Not getting it.

Good!
That means I was vague enough as to not spoil anything. Not even if you played MI2 multiple times.

I’m staying :see_no_evil: just in case. I might bookmark it for after though, just to see if I’m as confused as Milan :laughing:

Doubtful, when it comes to stuff like this! :sweat_smile:

He did completly make stuff in the past, though. I mean technically, being so vague to not even be true anymore is super secure, but is that still an actual spoiler? :thinking:

Yeah, it really is a spoiler, not making stuff up. But it is quite secure in the sense that it is hard to guess if you did not play MI2 before unless your mind is as twisted as Ron’s or even if you did but weren’t paying enough attention to details (myself included - my aha-erlebnis came a few years later while reading an article on MI2)

So it´s not really a gamplay spoiler but of a story thing? I´m really confused.
