Maniac Mansion is a classic point-and-click adventure game that was originally released for the Commodore 64 in 1987. The game was developed by Lucasfilm Games (later known as LucasArts) and was the second graphic-adventure game published by the company.
The game features a graphic parser that is controlled by joystick and cursor, where elements of a sentence are clicked to result in the desired action.
The game is set in a spooky mansion and follows a group of teenagers who are trying to rescue their friend from an evil scientist.
The game was also released for other platforms such as Amiga, Apple II, Atari ST, NES, and PC-DOS, and it was well-received and is considered a classic of the adventure game genre.
The game’s creator, Ron Gilbert, went on to create other classic adventure games such as Monkey Island and Day of the Tentacle.
