Mansion Comments: Dr Demented's Den

[hawaii]

Normal
Room 15503

Pls. check out floating head. Doesn't it come out chasing Jack to fast?  There is no lamp to kill it with and he does have to balance those conveyer belts...maybe a tad to much for normal???

Room 15907

There is a coin right on the snake, lower level, near green door.  There is no benefit to killing that snake, except a loss of Jack's life.  hmmm

Room 16506

Do you think that Jack entering this room quickly is a cheap death?

Dr Demented Normal:

I got 100% of secrets and 20 000 points

I finished in just under an hour. Usually I lose all of my lives a couple of times before I finish a game on Normal and even sometimes on Easy. This game is fun, but very easy. Maybe too easy for Easy, but definitely too easy for Normal.

In room 15907 you cannot get the one coin unless you kill the snake.

No other glitches, or problems. Just a little too easy and a little too fast.

Actually, you can get that coin without dying... stand *right* next to it, then use your jump left key (default numpad 4) and you should get it as you jump over.

margherita,

The mansion's designer was Jacob Vann. Glad you liked it!

I'll look into the suggestions you posted.

Yes, but there is also a shield in the very same room, behind the left column. You can see its outline pulse red. I'm pretty sure Jacob intended for observant players to see the shield, take it, and kill the snake with it for max money score. I'm inclined to leave it as-is. Thoughts?

Do you have the right room number Missy? I don't see how there could be a cheap death in 16506. How so?

Actually, it is possible to jump over the snake and get the coin without dying, because I've done it. But the shield there also is a life saver. 8-)
