ZAK MCKRACKEN AND THE ALIEN MINDBENDERS (?) (?)
All maps | Map 1
Complete solution:
BEDROOM
In the bedroom open all the drawers and pick up the phone bill,the fishbowl
(including Sushi), and the kazoo. Go to the TV/kitchen and pick up the
cushion on the wall. Insert the TV plug into the power outlet then pick up
the other cushion and get the remote control to turn on the TV. After you
have watched the TV,open the cupboard and get the yellow crayon. Then get
the butter knife and the egg in the fridge. Go back to the bedroomand get
the cashcard from under the desk and tear off a piece of wallpaper near the
door. Use the crayon on the torn wallpaper and you now have a starnge map.
Go through the TV/kitchen and get the small key near the outer door. Then go
down the stairs and outside.
TO BAKERY
The bakery is just left of the stairs. Push the button three times until the
baker throws some bread at you then pick it up and head for 14th avenue.
TO LOU'S LOANS
Buy the guitar, toolbox, golf club, noseglasses, hat and wetsuit with your
cashcard then go to the hair salon.
TO HAIR SALON
Open the toolbox,and use the wirecutters to get the bobby pin sign, then
head back to 13th avenue.
TO PHONE COMPANY
Wear the hat and noseglasses and pay your phone bill. The alien will think
you are one of them! Then get the application and use the crayon on it, and
then head for the mailbox at the bottom of the stairs outside your room. Use
the small key and place the application in the mailbox and close it. Then go
to the TV/kitchen and use the monkeywrench on the pipe under the sink. Put
the stale bread in the sink and turn on the button. Get the bread crumbs and
then use the fishbowl in the sink. (Sushi has a safe home and Zak has a
helmet) Then go to the bedroom and pick up the corner of the rug. Use the
monkeywrench on the loose floor boards and you now have a hole that leads to
the aliens secret room. Then go outside to the bus. Use the kazoo to wake up
the driver then use your cashcard in the reader.
TO SAN FRANCISCO AIRPORT
Buy the book from the devotee and use the ticket to Seattle.
IN AIRPLANE
After the stewardess has given you the peanuts, head for the toilet and use
the toilet paper in the sink. Turn the sink on and when it overflows push
the help button on the wall. Quickly head to the front of the plane and open
the micrwave oven,put the egg in it and turn it on (What a mess!). Go back
to the seats and when the stewardess starts cleaning the microwave get the
cushion and the lighter that falls out. Open all the bins until you find the
oxygen tank then sit down.
AT SEATTLE
Get the branch from the tree and give the peanuts to the squirrel. Use the
golf club on the loose dirt (I know the feeling) and head into the cave. Use
the what is function to find the birds nest and use it in the fire pit with
the branch and the lighter to start a fire. Go to the strange markings and
use the crayon on them. Once the door is open go in and use the remote
control to get the blue crystal.Then go back to San Francisco.
AT SAN FRANCISCO
Go to your mailbox and by this time a letter should be there. Its your KING
Fan Club Membership. Head for 14th avenue.
14TH AVENUE
Place the blue crystal in the slot in the red door. Annie will appear and
tell you her dream. Give Annie the butter knife and the rope. Switch to
Annie and look under the blotter to get her cashcard. Send her to Zak's
bedroom and use the rope in the hole in the floor. Switch to Zak and go to
London and through to Katmandu.
AT KATMANDU
Go right to the guard and give him the book and he will let you in to see
the guru who will tell you how to use the blue crystal. Then head to the
prison. At this point I suggest you save the game as the next part has to be
done with split-second timing. Take the flagpole and quickly use the
cashcard in the yak to escape before the policeman gets you. Go to London
and through to Zaire.
AT ZAIRE
Go to the Shaman and give him the golf club. He will show you a secret dance
which is in fact a combination to a door. Make sure you write it down! Then
go back to London and to Miami.
AT MIAMI
Give the book to the drunk and he will give you a bottle of whiskey. Then
buy a ticket to Bermuda.
AT BERMUDA
The pilot will give you a parachute and eventually you will get taken into a
spaceship. Note the combination the pilot uses. Then push the button on the
inner door to meet the KING. Show him your fan club membership and give him
the guitar. Then use the Lotto-dictor to get tomorrows winning numbers. Head
to the exit and use the same combination the pilot used. You will find
yourself in mid air so use the parachute and eventually you will land in the
ocean. The cushion will keep you afloat. Use the kazoo and eventually a
dolphin appears. At this point save the game.
Use the blue crystal on the
dolphin and use the dolphin to quickly go underwater to the right side of
the seabed. Remove the seaweed and take the glowing device and quickly head
back up and give it to Zak. Switch back to Zak and by this time an alien
will appear and take you back to the secret prison. Don't worry as you have
Annie stationed above and when the alien leaves send Annie down to pull the
switch. When Zak has recovered go to the cupboard and get your artifacts
then go back up the rope with Annie. Give the whiskey to Annie. Then go to
Lou's Loans and buy a Lotto ticket. Use the numbers you got from the
spaceship. Then go to the airport and get a ticket to Mexico.
AT MEXICO
Go to the Mayan temple and enter. You will have to search in the dark for
torches to light with your lighter. Head towards the centre of the temple.
the green figures on the walls are the outer tunnels and head towards the
blue figures. This is a hit or miss affair but the fewer doors mean you are
heading towards the centre. Eventually you will find a room with a statue.
At this point switch to Melissa and Leslie on Mars.
ON MARS
Use the girls to get the boombox (Melissa), data tape from radio, and the
cashcards and fuse from the glovebox in the shuttle bug. Note the oxygen
tank. Make sure you use this before heading off. Take Leslie to the left of
the shuttle past the hut and use her cashcard in the monolith slot. Get the
token and go into the hut.Use the token to open the metal plate,take the old
fuse out and put the new one in. Close the Mars door and open the hostel
door. Go in and get the vinyl tape from the locker. Open the lockers and get
the flashlight. Then pull the covers on the bed and Leslie will pick up the
broom alien. Get the ladder to the right. Go back to the shuttle. Give the
vinyl tape, ladder and torch to Melissa. Top up the oxygen for both girls
and the send Melissa right to the Mars door.
Use the ladder on the mars door
and use the combination from the Shaman. There are three buttons. Push left
one once, right twice, centre once, right once and centre once, and the door
should open. Go to the Giant Chamber and to the first door on the left. Use
the vinyl tape on the data tape and place it in the boombox. Use the stairs
on the pedestal then turn on the boom box to record. Touch the sphere on top
of the pedestal and the door will open. Go to the middle door and you will
notice that the sphere is damaged. Turn on the boombox to play and the door
will open. Go to the third door and open it with the ladder. Then go to the
giant statue on the right and read the strange markings. Make a note and
send Melissa back to the shuttle. Put the fuse back in the glovebox and use
the oxygen. Switch back to Zak.
IN MAYAN PYRAMID
Use the crayon on the strange markings to make it the same pattern as the
one on mars. The statue will open and you can take the crystal shard. Get
out of the temple, heading to the outer doors and go back to San Francisco.
AT SAN FRANCISCO
Cash in your Lotto ticket and you should have 10,000 dollars extra. Go to
the airport and get a ticket to Lima.
AT LIMA
Put the breadcrumbs in the recepticle. At this point save the game. Use the
blue crystal on the bird and head to the LEFT eye of the Hill statue. Take
the scroll and quickly head back to Zak and give it to him. The alien will
appear again and take Zak back to the cell. Use Annie to rescue him as
before. Now take Annie and Zak to London.
IN LONDON
Give Annie the pole,wirecutters,two pieces of yellow crystal,scroll and
whiskey if she hasn't got them. Send Annie out the door to the guard. Give
the whiskey to the guard and when he falls asleep switch off the electric
fence. Go to the far right and use the wirecutters on the fence to get to
Stonehenge. Use the pole on the altar and place the two pieces of crystal on
the altar.Read the scroll and the crystal will be fused together. Take it
back to Zak and give it to him. Now send Annie and Zak to Cairo.
AT CAIRO
Send Zak to Zaire to the Shaman and he will teach him to use the yellow
crystal. Now using the map Zak can teleport to any of the platforms that
have not been damaged. Use it to go to Lima and get the candelabra from the
right eye. Then teleport to the Pyramid in Cairo. Use the lever to open the
stairs and light the torch in the lower room. Then go to the sphinx to the
strange markings.Switch to Annie and bring her there also. At this point go
to Mars and send one of the girls into the first room in the Giant Chamber
with the flashlight. Follow the maze until you come to a statue with
markings on it. These are the markings needed to open the sphinx. Send the
girl back to the shuttle and switch back to Zak.
Use the crayons on the
sphinx markings and open the secret entrance. Follow the doors with a man
and a shining object on them to get to a secret room. Send Annie in on the
same path as she needs to decipher the hieroglyphics. Push the buttons in
the order required and then use the crayon to add to the wallpaper map. Now
send Annie to the pyramid making sure she goes out the same way as she came
in.(There is another secret room which holds the guardian who you don't wish
to meet) Send Annie up the secret stairs in the pyramid. Now get Zak ready
to go to Mars. On the wall there is another pattern needed on Mars so make a
note of it. Put the wetsuit on ,use the oxygen tank,and the fishbowl with
the duct tape. Put the fishbowl on and use the yellow crystal to teleport to
the Mars Face.
MARS FACE
Use the pattern on the markings and go through the centre door. Follow the
white doors and you will come out in the Giant Chamber. Go to the centre
door and get the ankh,then go back out to the right door to the force field.
Put the ankh in the panel and push the button on the machine. Then get the
keys (one of them will crumble) and go to the Shuttle. Make sure everyone
tops up with oxygen. Send Leslie to sweep the sand outside the hostel with
the broom alien. Bring everyone to the Monolith and buy tokens. Make sure
the girls have two each (for return fare) Take the tram to the Martian
Pyramid with Zak and the two girls.
MARTIAN PYRAMID
Assemble them all outside the door and get Leslie to sweep the sand with the
broom. Use the bobby pin sign to open the door and send them all in to the
sarcophagus. Use one of the girls to push the feet on the sarcophagus and a
secret stairway will open. Send Zak and the other girl up the stairs then
release the feet to close the stairway. Use the golden key in the panel and
position Zak in front of the power crystal. Get the girl to push the button
in the panel and quickly switch to Zak to get the power crystal. Go to the
left of the room and get the girl below to push the feet again. Bring
everyone down and send the girls back to the shuttle before they run out of
air. Close the door on the shuttle remove their helmets and use the controls
to send the girls to earth. Teleport Zak to the secret room in the pyramid
in Cairo. Assemble the glowing piece,candelabra and crystals and then use
Zak and Annie to pull the switch on either side. Then sit back and watch....
