Maniac Mansion released on Steam

I did. I actually made a kind of walkthrough back then (drew a map and a list of items with where to find them and what they can be used for).

They shouldn’t come undone unless you didn’t really fix them. If you have fixed them properly you will see something soon…

Hm, I did it with the lights turned off, and he said he thinks he fixed them but it’s dark… guess it didn’t work then…

Maybe you can figure it out already.

If not: Have you seen how an electrician works when the lights are out?

Really? Didn´t he complain about it being to dark to fix them or something?

Yeah, but my batteries ran out. Guess I need to find some more.

Nope. He just said something like, there we go, I think they’re fixed, but it’s hard to tell in the dark.

I guess so. :slight_smile:

You´re right about that!

I didn´t know that was the response. If they´re undone he was probably wrong about them being fixed and you´re also right about needing the flashlight.

I always said that you are the best!

Hooray, I got further! I now have a card key (or a keycard, you weird writers), have unlocked the arcade machines (though not to any avail) and have managed to play the green tentacle an acceptable demo. I can’t get the radio tube out of the radio because apparently no one knows how to do that. I think I need the tentacle’s help, but I shall keep thinking on that.

(though not to any avail)

Wait a bit for a cutscene.

because apparently no one knows how to do that.

That´s right!

Well for 1987 standards, that is pretty much spelling it out. I wonder if the official hintbook* would put any different.

Did it work? No? Then they’re not fixed.

Why not? He’s says it’s too dark to see.

Do you have any object that could shed some light on the matter?

Yes, but my object ran out of power. Then either find new ones (no need to look for a charger, it IS 1987 after all) or try to economise like you would in any Zork-like text adventure (it IS 1987 after all).

I’d say that puzzle chain is not far fetched or moon logic.

*Incremental hints not from the official hint book, but from yours truly.

My tip is moon logic in itself:

That’s called consistency. :+1:
Ooor they could have renamed everything else: keysilver, keyrusty… :old_key:

BTW I´ve always assumed that refered to the Inglewood Forum, which is pretty bold considering that venue´s size and reputation.

But… Yeah okay can’t argue with that.

They obviously meant this forum, in the future.
