I first played Maniac Mansion back in the very early nineties. I usually didn't get very far, about one third into the game or so. But it was enough for me to get to know most of the characters involved in the storyline. In 1998 I found a pack of ten LucasArts adventure games on CD-ROM in a shop outside of Antwerp. When I got home I installed all of the games and had lots of fun. However, I remember installing both Sam and Max Hit the Road and Maniac Mansion's sequel Day of the Tentacle without actually playing the games. Today I finally sat down and started playing Day of the Tentacle, which was a typical LucasArts adventure game with lots of humour and quirky puzzles. I solved the game in one go (with some help from GameFAQs, I might add - the age of the Internet has made me a bit lazy compared to my die-hard Sierra On-Line days (I have played through Police Quest (the original Amiga and DOS versions) five times) when I solved everything myself. I just don't have the patience any longer. Mind you, I did wait a long time before visiting GameFAQs today. Nevertheless, the game has been solved at last and it was worth it! I would recommend Day of the Tentacle, actually!
