Have you read the hints on this thread?
I don't think there is a walkthrough, its a pretty short game.

wallet, stamp, and pen, maybe by the time I get to play you will have got further and will be able to help me if i get stuck, where are you stuck?

Then you're done, grunt... All you need to do is put the envelope in your mail thing outside and close it (!)... That's it...

Title: Re: Maniac Mansion Mania 1
Post by: DoorKnobHandle on Sat 26/03/2005 19:31:20
:) "to be on the ball" is a very german expression. I don't think you really use it in english!

you really say that? anyways. I speak american english and never heard of it... we're getting kinda offtopic...
Title: Re: Maniac Mansion Mania 1
Post by: on Sun 27/03/2005 11:45:51
Well, around my area we say that. But not all U.K people say it. Anyway, we should really talk about something else before we get way too much off topic.

Well just to add my two cents worth, I am Irish/Canadian and have always used this expression.

Well, if you look to my parents and not my saxon ancestors, I'm British (as in my family have lived here for years and years), so i don't know what they say in other countries much. Now, lets just finish this before we drift off into the land of where... um.... where um.... The clouds are made of bubblegum and the trees sing in french.

You get the address off the TV, which you need to turn off with the remote.

The remote can be found under the couch cusions.

I couldn't remember so I did a search for you

http://www.adventuregamers.com/underground/games.php
I give you the main page just in case there are some other games you haven't played.
Just go down the list its under the M's and once you download it don't forget to run winsetup.exe first to choose the english version.
Have you played 5 Magical Amulets? thats a great game

Thanks again.

I've finished MMM #1 and now I am stuck in Frank the farmhand #2.

I got the pînk pig and now the entrance is blocked. I tried getting out by the right side of the screen but I can only go to archeologist and hut.  I tried the chisel but it did not work so I though of making the bomb to get rid of debris, but where do you get the flint for the bomb and then how do you light it? ???

I've been playing for a few hours and I guess I am just plain dumb or hypnotized.  I just  can't think clearly anymore.

If you can shed some light, please feel free to do so.  It will be appreciated. :)

I don't think I should be answering your question in this thread do you (not that I have an answer right now for you lol) but maybe if you post in the Frank the Farmhand thread, say what you have in inventory, maybe I can figure it out or somebody else will.

Joyce,

You are so right.  I apologize to everyone.

I was so tired when I wrote that post that I didn't even realize that I was asking for help for another game.

Sorry again. :-[

Joyce, I downloaded this game but cannot play it.  It keeps telling me I need DirectX 8.0. I downloaded both 8.0 and 9.0 and yet it is still asking for DirectX 8.0 so I cannot play it.

Hi Sunshine
I replied in the 5 magical amulet thread, just in case Grunt2 tells us off again. That made me feel like I was back at school and got told off by the teacher LOL

Right at the beginning, before you even leave your bedroom, look at desk, open drawer and the pen is inside

Good luck.
