When I first had the idea for a Free Game Friday segment, the first two games that came to mind were Wasteland and Maniac Mansion Deluxe.

I first played Maniac Mansion years ago on my Commodore 64. It was a wonderfully nonlinear adventure game with multiple solutions to its problems, excellent humor, and a lot of replayability. It took me forever to figure everything out when I first played, but when I learned of this LucasFan remake, I downloaded and played through the entire game in a night or two. Guess I remembered the solutions to all the puzzles.
