Maniac Mansion: Day Of The Tentacle completed
GOG saw fit to complete this, and I agree. For those who want to vote for the original (running in ScummVM or whatever), you can vote here: www.gog.com/wishlist/games/maniac_mansion_day_of_the_tentacle_original
This has officially been added! I have it!
You can use Double Fine Explorer: <a <a href="href="https://quickandeasysoftware.net/software/doublefine-explorer"" class="light_un" target="_blank">href="https://quickandeasysoftware.net/software/doublefine-explorer"</a> class="light_un" <a href="target="_blank">https://quickandeasysoftware.net/software/doublefine-explorer</a>" class="light_un" target="_blank">target="_blank">https://quickandeasysoftware.net/software/doublefine-explorer</a></a> to simply extract the original data files and run them with ScummVM if for some reason you want to(like the remastered version not running in 10.6.8).
For DOTT they are in the "classic\en\" folder(3 files) and Maniac Mansion(V2_DOS) in in the "Maniac\" folder when you extract the big "tenta.cle" file.
Shouldn't this be marked as completed?
Again, the original is never going to be released by Disney (it's not up to GOG). The remaster was made with the full involvement of the creators Tim Schafer & Dave Grossman, and as said you can switch at any time (in-game) to the original untouched version.
Guys... the original is part of the remaster. Is anyone actually unsatisfied with the release?
IMHO, the differences between the remastered version and the original are academic. I think this should be marked as completed.
It isn't marked as "completed" because the original version still isn't here.
This should be marked as COMPLETED since Day of The Tentacle Remastered is available on GOG: www.gog.com/game/day_of_the_tentacle_remastered
It features both the remastered and original version, and just like the original, Maniac Mansion can be fully played within this game.
Here's my vote for having the original Day of the Tentacle and the enhanced EGA/V2 release of Maniac Mansion in ScummVM-compatible form as bonuses.
The EGA/V2 release, because the lower-res V1 release is what was included in the Day of the Tentacle CD that I own. ScummVM-compatible bonuses, because my OpenPandora (palmtop PC) is an ARM device, but doesn't run Android, so it's very unlikely to ever be supported by the remastered release.)
But please, add the german voice feature. I prefer playing games in english, except for point and click adventures. I love the old ones with the german sound and voice.
I'd love to see this on here!
Since Day of the Tentacle is getting remastered, I would assume that it's also getting released on GOG, so I have an addendum to this wish. The original Maniac Mansion was available on Day of the Tentacle and is confirmed to be in the new version as well, but could it be possible to also offer Maniac Mansion as one of the bonus items that comes with the game? I only ask this because some people may want to experience Maniac Mansion without having to play through a big portion of Day of the Tentacle first, and since the game files are already there, I feel like this wouldn't be a big issue in terms of programming or licensing.
It's been confirmed at IndieCade that the Remastered version will feature the full original Maniac Mansion game (as well as the unaltered Day of the Tentacle with Monkey Island: SE-style switching).
Yes, there original one would be great. But I think it is in fact a IP right issue. So I would expect by selling the rights to Doublefine they are bound to no to sell the old one elsewhere. It is a little bit like the Monkey Island thing. They only sell the remastered one.
Hopefully Doublefine does a good job ;-)
Take my money!!!!
hope it comes soon, near all Lucas Arts Adeventures available here but this on of the best isnt :(
I know a remake is coming but still I had to vote. This cannot come quickly enough.
Was just searching for this and was really disappointed that it was nowhere to be found. DOTT and the first Maniac Mansion game should be mandatory installment on GOG, and on everyone's computers.
Of course the original Maniac Mansion is close to 30 years old now and was already problematic to run on a 486, but it's also less than a MB so it's not like there's a lot of code to rework (supposedly it works in a DOS box, but haven't been able to find a working copy of it).
Do this now please. Want.
Old CDs got lost in many moves. Mightn't work anyway... Make available please.
yeah the MUST release this one
gabriell 123 where and when? from looking through news i found that they had already announced Day of the Tentacle: Special Edition for PS4 and Vita.
but the game was yet to be released at an unspecified date for the PC, Mac, and Linux
in any case i hope it arrives on GoG at some point in the near future and also retains the original Full Maniac Mansion game Easter Egg contained on the arcade machine...would be so cool.
why? They already gave this out revamped and for free....
I'm pretty disappointed this wasn't in the last wave of Lucasarts Games
Upvoted. I'd buy this in a heartbeat.
We need this. Now. Enough said. #Kappa
Double Fine is making a special edition of DotT for 2015. Btw. Grim Fandango Remastered will be released 27.01.2015.!
One of the essential games you'd expect to find on GOG but are surprised to find is missing...
I want this so bad.
I have wanted this for years. I even sent Lucasarts a letter begging for it about 5 years ago.
I would pay $60 for this game. This game was brillliant.
I wish a Linux and french language game on GOG.
I buy directly.
One of the games that should definitely be here if you guys still take your founding principles seriously. I understand however, that there can be some copyright issues and other difficulties. Nevertheless I hope that it's in plans. It's an absolute must have on every classic game distributor's list as well as an on adventure gamers collection.
Any Hope to get the game?

Day Of The Tentacle...... A MILESTONE... would be a MUST BUY game
Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, The Dig, Grim Fandango would be very nice!
Oh god, I would buy it a million times over.
Easily one of my favorite games of all time, please make it happen.
This and all the other SCUMM games from LucasArts would be a huge coup for GOG. I'd pay a mint for this and Full Throttle, and with the renewed interest in Grim Fandango's PS4 remake, the timing could not be better.
I would love to play this again, it was one of my favourites.
This is one of my most desired old games. A solid gold classic!
DOTT PL0X U.U
Being able to play this game again would be great! This is one of the funniest games every and was brilliant! I would love to be able to share this game with my wife. She missed ever getting to play this great game.
you could even charge like FIFTEEN DOLLARS it would be fine
Want this also its awesome.
This game is required playing for anyone who calls themselves a gamer.
I love DOTT!!! Please add!! We all need this!!!!!
DOTT gets my vote
Hell yes please add day of the tentacle for Mac with german Langu...
I know you're working hard to bring this to our desktops again, GoG. Even if you don't succeed, I'll love you forever for trying.
