Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders playthrough and hints

:joy:

Yeah, I remember reading the whiskey now. But I don´t think I had tried the Kazoo before. Yes they´re both funny.

Ok, tomorrow I’ll replay Zak. But only to read the kazoo and the bottle

Takes only like 10 minutes.

But it´s neat to see that Zak gives you hints like “I think I should REALLY go to Seattle first!”

I didn’t know you could find that out either, heh. I’ll have a look next time I play.

Also if you in the bedroom you try USE bed, he’ll tell you “No time for sleeping, I have a plane to catch
In the C64 version (and I assume the DOS version) you can do that though…

That was one of the first things I tried. (Not surprising for me :joy: )

Me too! I think that’s ever since The X-Files Game where I got really stuck and it turned out you had to go to bed :laughing:

But I think It´s possible in every version at a later point to just have him go to bed and watch him sleep. :slight_smile:

Oh yeah, he’s had a few naps in mine. I like watching him sleep :eyes:

Getting Annie in bed is a real challenge though …for sleeping, you dirty mind

That’s like “turn on computer(game) and go to sleep”

Yup, me too.

Btw, not participating in the challenge. I forget if I ever checked the kazoo and I didn’t remember the name of the whiskey.

… you should use the answering machine. Several times. After paying your bill.

And you can phone to Al the Alien.

I’ve done that, but I only recall getting two different messages. Not sure about the highest number of times I’ve used it in one save file, though.

Really?! :open_mouth: But I don’t have his number!

Maybe you can find it somewhere? This being a public company that shouldn´t be too difficult.

What @milanfahrnholz said! :slight_smile: If you need more hints, drop us a note.

btw: This is actually part of a not so important puzzle.

And one with many different solutions.
But it’s funnier if you played MM before. Actually life is better if you played MM :slight_smile:

Or TWP. :wink:

Indeed! @tasse-tee is playing the games in the wrong order. :wink: To get all in-game jokes in the LucasArts games I would recommend to play them in chronological order: MM, Zak, Indy 3, Monkey Island and then TWP.

Well, she’s saving the best for last (kinda)…

I thought she would like to play Monkey Island next … :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
