Maniac Mansion is from 1987 and is more then 15 years old and is hence no more protected or? If Maniac Mansion is no more protected so is Maniac Mansion Deluxe too since it is based on the Original and Why is there no Review of the Original? <_<

Fun old game, plenty of nostalgia. A word of advice: don't use a walkthrough, just be patient. If that doesn't sound like fun, this low-graphics old game probably isn't for you.

The game uses the Adventure Game Studio engine. Even then, this game would be more under Abandonia Reloaded than this portion of the site.

And what does that mean for us?

That presumably LucasArts isn't oing after sites hosting the game other than the authors of the remake?

Or that they only go for sites that actively come to their knowledge because they create publicity - like Abandonia. (You'll figure out to whom which they/that/their refers.)

I considered this game a bit difficult without a Walkthrough.

I thought it funny that the characters in the game had disproportionate heads. One thing I loved to do was ring the bell several times to torment them. Another thing I found funny was Dr.’s wife chasing you out of her room.

I realized that there were two forms of game over:

- all characters are captured by the wife, son or one of the tentacles, but the game continues even if it is impossible to resume;
- you press the button (or something) and detonate the nuclear reactor (or something) - and the mansion explode killing everyone.
