10 INCREDIBLE Parts Of Video Games You Can Easily Miss
6. Getting The Secret Code - Maniac Mansion
Maniac Mansion manages that ancient art of an older game having puzzles that seem simply impenetrable. When you discover that this game has a sealed lab entrance that has a number code to unlock, it seems that you're facing up against yet another one of these.
And so you'd go through all sorts of tasks in order to finally obtain this code, which varied in difficulty from fixing some broken wires, to getting a high score on an arcade game in order to use whatever score you got to unlock the door.
However, the door still has a code before it's set to whatever sweet score you managed to get. Hilariously, said code is the incredibly easy to guess 0000, meaning that, if you'd tried to guess for long enough, you probably could have gotten in within your first ten tries.
Although this is especially painful to learn after basically going through the Twelve Labours of Hercules, it's undeniably funny to learn you could have dodged all of this by just guessing the first few codes that could come to your mind.
