Maniac Mansion Cheats

When one of your guys is captured, to free him easily; just get another one of your guys captured!

1. Once two guys are captured, go to the middle of the wall in the basement.
2. Have a guy stand at the door to your right.
3. Push the stone in and the door will open.
4. You're free to go!

The key to the dungeon is hidden inside the chandelier in the living room, the room you enter on your way to the library. To break the chandelier, you will need:

- A cassette tape. (The cassette tape is found in the library beneath a secret panel by the telephone)
- A record. (The record is found in the Green Tentacle room)

1. Take these two items to the second floor, to the room with a piano and TV.
2. Once there, put the record on the victrola and the cassette into the tape recorder.
3. Turn on the recorder, and then the victrola.
4. Wait until the vase on the piano breaks before turning off the tape recorder.
5. Once the tape is made take it down to the living room and put it in tape deck of the old-fashioned radio.
6. Play the tape. The high frequency will shatter the windows and then the chandelier. And the key will fall onto the floor!

The code for the prison's final security gate (the one that leads to the lab) is all zeros.

You can skip to the end of the game after you unlock it.

To do this, you need either Razor or Syd. When you have Ed out of the room, get his hamster. The card key and the dimes are also things you can get if you do it in time.
When you are one of the characters, place the hamster in the microwave and turn it on. The hamster will explode.

For an extra thrill give the hamster back to Weird Ed. He will get mad and kill you. You won't see the killing, but you'll end up in afterlife with nothing, but you can still get stuff from places, like the sponge. You can still get caught by Edna or Ed if you are in there room. Also your friends can't see you and you are invisible. Enjoy you death!

To get past the green tenticle; give him the wax fruit which can be found in the left-hand door on the second floor, and the Pepsi that can be found in the refrigerator.

Don't use Bernard to do this, as he will chicken out.

When you go into a room where someone who lives in the house is. Just when they see you switch to another person for about a minute, then switch back to the person who was going to get caught and they won't see you.
