- Note: During the game you make little use of the keyboard, except to type
- in the addresses to let the Cab Driver know where you want to go. You must
- then use the available commands displayed on the screen. The exact use of
- these commands is not described in this solution as their actions will be
- obvious, and full details are provided in the documentation accompanying
- the software.
-
- Examine each room carefully during the game, as well as the objects
- scattered around them.
-
-
- THE SOLUTION
-
- You begin your adventure in the Bathroom. It seems that you have been
- drugged. You don't remember who you are. Take the overcoat and examine the
- contents of the pockets. You will find some small change, a lighter with
- the initials J.S., some cigarettes, a handkerchief with the same initials,
- some sunglasses and a wallet with a key, plastic card and a 20 dollar
- bill.
-
- Take the .38 revolver armed with six bullets, and open the door.
-
- Look at the mirror.....where have you seen that face before?!! Leave the
- room.......you're in the Hallway.
-
- Directly to your LEFT is the Ladies' Bathroom. Enter this room (while
- preparing a good explanation should you ever get caught in there!). In the
- bathroom and to your LEFT, you notice an expensive pearl earring; take it
- if you feel so inclined, but it is not essential to your quest.
-
- Leave the room and in the Hallway, head for the Bar in front of you and
- climb the stairs to the second floor.
-
- If you examine the pictures on the wall, you'll see yourself in some of
- them! Enter the office.
-
- Open the drawer. Inside, you'll find a bill with an address - 934 West
- Sherman.
-
- Take the bill if you wish and open the door to your Left with the key from
- the wallet.
-
- In the Office, you'll find a corpse; Search the body and take the keys to
- the Mercedes you saw before, parked in the street.
-
- Open the desk and take the pen and key marked "Front".
-
- Leave the room by going out through the window behind the corpse and to the
- fire escape. Head for the third floor.
-
- Enter that strange room through the window......Hmmmmmmmmmm.......not the
- most reassuring place in the world!
-
- Carefully examine the trash can. You'll find a syringe. Take it.
-
- On the window ledge, you'll find three capsules; Examine those also. It
- seems it was here that they tied you up and drugged you.
-
- Take the elevator to visit the rest of the building.
-
- Inside the elevator, press the third button from the top, and you end up in
- the Casino.
-
- Insert coins into the machine until you win a jackpot. You will indeed
- require a lot of change for the cabs.
-
- Take the elevator again and press the basement button. You now end up in
- the sewers!
-
- Before descending into the sewers, SAVE YOUR GAME because you don't stand a
- chance of defending yourself against the alligator that roams down there
- and which appears from time to time!
-
- Head for the bottom of the sewer and examine the whirlpool that seems to
- remind you of something. Now, head for the exit but before leaving, SAVE
- YOUR GAME again because if you go out in the backyard alley, you risk
- meeting the big bad guy!!!
-
- Get to the Mercedes down the street and unlock the door with the key that
- you found on the cadaver earlier. Enter the car and open the glove
- compartment.
-
- You will find a photo there (I hope it's not a picture of your wife!!), a
- car registration form in the name of Joey Siegel (do the initials J.S. ring
- a bell?!) and the address 1212 West End St.
-
- If you feel so inclined, try starting the car (Ah! the old car bomb trick!
- I hope you had saved your game!!).
-
- Get out of the car and go to your RIGHT. You should meet the prostitute
- whom you promptly punch! Open her purse and go through its contents. You
- find another 20 dollar bill and a revolver which could become useful if you
- have the intention of shooting non-stop throughout the game. As for the 20
- dollar bill, take it if you can find a way to make change for it, otherwise
- it's useless.
-
- And now, go to the LEFT to the newspaper stand, examine the headlnes and
- the date. This must be 1941!! Buy the paper and the merchant supplies a few
- important details. Go to the LEFT where you might meet the mugger. If you
- do, strike him, but take note of this: You can meet and strike the mugger
- only 4 TIMES during the whole adventure, so try to avoid him as often as
- possible by SAVING YOUR GAME regularly.
-
- You now face the weapons dealer shop. You may also meet a beggar who offers
- you some information for 20 dollars. As you won't need the money for the
- rest of the adventure, you may give it to him, but you could also ignore
- him. You could also enter the store and purchase the "special of the day"
- if you feel like it!!
-
- Always to your LEFT, you're now in front of a taxicab. Go to it and ask the
- driver to get you to 1212 West End Street, the address you found in the
- Mercedes. The ride costs you 75.......pay and get out of the cab.
-
- Enter the building. In front of you is a private entrance. Take the plastic
- card from your wallet to use the elevator. At the top floor, examine the
- penthouse and on the fireplace is a photo and another address (520 S.
- Kedzie). Leave the building, enter the waiting taxi and go to that
- address.
-
- You will now be in front of a house, the door to which you are unable to
- open. Shoot the lock off with your pistol and enter the house.
-
- On the table you find a paper on which is written the number combination:
- 33-24-36 (a pretty good number for a safe, eh?!). You also find another
- expensive pearl earring. Now, all that's left for you to do is to find the
- woman who might fit between them!
-
- Open the desk drawer, take the diary and the key.
-
- It is now time to head for 934 West Sherman. Enter the building and head up
- the stairs to the office of Dr.Brody. Open the door with the key found at
- 520 S. Kedzie. In the office, shoot a bullet at the filing cabinet lock and
- you'll find various files in it.
-
- First, read the Siegel file to discover the Diethanol Thimene antidote
- called Bisodumitis. Read the other files too, to gain more interesting
- facts.
-
- Examine the contents of the medicine cabinet and take the Bisodumitis
- (click on the bottle) and place the product into the syringe.
-
- Inject yourself with the contents of the syringe. The drug goes to work
- quickly and you begin to remember.
-
- Take the Sodium Pentathol capsule from the cabinet; it will come in handy
- in a few moments. Get out of the office and go to the second floor in front
- of Dr. Ace Harding's office door.
-
- Unlock the door with the same key as for the other Doctor's office. Fire a
- bullet at the shadow behind the door and enter the office.
-
- Open the file cabinet and read the contents of the files. Open the desk
- drawers and your memory comes back gradually (it will come back with more
- regularity from now on). You can always take bullets for the .38 if you
- like. And now, you must search for a new destination.
-
- Examine the map found in the Mercedes. The following address is indicated:
- 1060 South Peoria Street, which is actually Joe's Bar, the place you
- initially started from!
-
- Time for another little visit. Unfortunately, the taxi doesn't go that far
- and you must walk part of the way. You risk encountering the mugger, so be
- careful. Walk to the bar on the RIGHT hand side.
-
- (Enter the bar through the sewer if you like, but it's much easier to use
- the front door since you found the key to it earlier).
-
- Once you get into the building, go to the second floor office and open up
- the safe since you now have the combination. Inside the safe are a small
- box and a file folder. Take the key from the box and read the file. Leave
- the office and head down he street towards the Mercedes.
-
- Open the trunk with the key found in the safe. You find there a lovely
- (Hum!!) looking woman, tied up and gagged. Remove the bind with a mouse
- click. Inject her with a dose of Sodium Pentathol and she blurts out the
- address: 626 Auburn Road. Take a cab and go there.
-
- In front of the house, open the mailbox and take the ransom note found
- there. Head for the house and knock on the door with the knocker. A butler
- answers but refuses to let you in! Punch him down too!! He falls
- unconscious.
-
- Climb to the first floor and in the first bedroom you discover a woman
- sleeping. Open the drawer and grab the notepad. Rub the pencil on the
- notepad and you can now read the message writen on it. How about that for
- informative clues!
-
- Go to the other room and there, a man is stacking Z's!! Take the attache
- case, open the drawer and take the letter left there. You can eat the
- chocolates if you wish and the same thing goes for the bologna sausage down
- in the kitchen too!! Leave the building and head for 1060 South Peoria.
-
- You now have all the elements you need to go to the Police Station. But
- first you must get rid of the gun.
-
- (Notice that from now on, the mugger may appear at any moment, so SAVE YOUR
- GAME as often as possible).
-
- A good place to rid yourself of the weapon is in the whirlpool inside the
- sewer. Go through the backyard alley to avoid meeting the alligator. Throw
- the gun down there.
-
- Now head for the Police Station and with the evidence you have - the
- notepad, diary and letter - you have the solution to the enigma.
-
- Right on! You've solved this adventure and as a bonus you now get to print
- your reward!! See you in Deja Vu II!!!!!!!!!!
