When you choose your party, choose Bernard, and Razor.
At the start of the game, move Dave west to the front door. Pick up the mat,
then pick up the key. Switch to Bernard and move him to the front door. Do
the same for Razor. Switch back to Dave, unlock the front door with the key
and give the key to Razor.  Enter house, and head Dave and Bernard into the
foyer.  Note that there is no handle on one of the doors. To open it, go over
to the gargoyle on the right, and push it.  Then switch to Bernard and have
him enter the now open door. Use 'what is' to find the light switch, and turn
it on. Go west, avoiding the radioactive slime to the fuse box. Pick up the
key, and remember where the fuse box is, and the door on the left. Go back to
the foyer. Switch to Dave and head out the front door. Once he is outside

the lights on in the library, go over to the phone, and open the loose panel
just above it. Pick up the blank cassette tape. Save the game and head back
to the foyer.  Get Bernard to open the door next to the Grandfather clock.
You are now in the kitchen. Should you come across Edna here, you will end up
in the dungeon. If this happens, get another person like Dave caught, and
Dave can the push the loose brick under the barred window while Bernard escapes.
Assuming all is well, have Bernard get the flashlight on the counter, then go
east, open refriderator, pick up Pepsi, then east twice, into the pantry.

open the newly discovered door, but don't go in.  Now go all the way to
outside the front door.  Open the bushes, then open the grate and go in.
Follow the pipes east until you come to what is lrft of the spilt devoloper

quickly and enter the weight room before Ed catches you.  Now get Dave or
Razor to open the fusebox (in basement, through door with no handle from main
hallway.  Remember the Gargoyle!). Save game.  Switch to Bernard, turn on the
flashlight and enter the room through the door in the paint blotch on the
wall.  Examine the left hand side of the wall at the back to find some broken
wires.  Switch to whoever you left at the fuse box and have them throw the
curcuit breaker.  Quickly switch back to Bernard, and fix the wires with the
tools.  Leave the room, then switch to the person at the fuse box, have them
switch the curcuit breaker back on and leave the room.  Next, switch back to
Bernard and enter the bathroom (via weight-room), and fix the water faucet
with handle.  Turn the shower on, and read the message.  Note the phone

the wall safe and pick up the sealed envelope.  Switch to Dave and phone Edna
again, then sneak Bernard out, shut the door and wait in the radio room.
Then go downstairs to the pool and refill your jar.  Shortly Dr Fred will indicate
that the power will be shut off for five minutes, this is just another chance
to repair the broken wires if you failed to do so earlier.  Get all your
charactures in the foyer and switch to Bernard.  Give the stamps to Razor,
and the small key and key card to Dave, save game and then head Bernard to
the kitchen.  Save game if Edna does not catch you.  Open the microwave oven,

Now use demo tape with envelope.  Once done, go back downstairs and outside.
Use envelope in mailbox, pull flag.  Leave Razor by the front steps for
later. Switch to Dave, and go to the arcade room.  Go to 'Meteors Mess' and use
quarter in slot.  Note Dr Freds high score of 5858 which is also the
combination to the secret lab.  However, if he has not played the machine yet,
you will have to wait and watch.  Also, to get your quarter back, you must use
the small key with coin box.
The doorbell should ring shortly as this is a conmtract for Green tentacle
from the three dudes.  Get Razor to pick it up.  If the doorbell hasn't rung
yet, switch to Bernard, who should still be in the radio room, and get him to
turn on the radio.  Use the radio and call the police on 3412.  Switch to
Razor and go into the front room and give the rusty key to Dave.  Now get
Razor to push the gargoyle, switch to Dave and send him down to the basement.
Next unlock the door with the rusty key and enter the dungeon.  Unlock the
upper padlock with the glowing key, then unlock the lower padlock with the
glowing key.  Dave will take care of the Meteor.  Use the combination from
the arcade machine to open the inner door.  If the meteor police have been,
examine dungeon floor and you should find some ID.  Once you have the ID,
enter the Zombiematic room and give the badge to Purple Tentacle.  If you
don't have the ID, then have Razor give the contract to Dave, then as Dave,
give it to the Green Tentacle.  Green would then guard Dave under any
circumstances and thus he would had been able to enter safely.  From here you
can now enter to where Sandy is.  Move Dave past here over to the locker,
open it, use radiation suit, use card key in slot of automatic door, enter in
to meteor room, then pull switch to save Sandy, Dr Fred, and finsh the game,
