Hi Forumites, Ive been discussing the Apple II port of Maniac Mansion with a fellow IRC'er for the last hour or so.

be careful with boot params, they are certainly not a method of skipping through to certain parts of the game in place of saves. the least of your concerns with boot params are the lack of inventory items. by using a boot param you effectively skip the setup of many important variables. you might be...

$30 is very expensive, keep your eye on ebay and certain web shops and you will find it cheaper, I paid no more than $12 for both of my versions(EN/JP).

The perfect playback is not surprising. The porter used the ScummVM source code, and has also used the same code to port Inherit the Earth, Simon the Sorcerer 2 and Flight of the Amazon Queen.
