Zak McCracken and the Alien Mindbenders

	Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The first one to reach completion was The New Adventures of Zak McKracken by "LucasFan Games", containing graphics from the Japanese FM Towns 256 color version, country-specific backgrounds from King of Fighters and some original art.
		The Zak McKracken Theme originally composed by Matthew Alan Kane is a popular song for remixes and reinterpretations.
		Among the artists who have made cover versions of it are The Dead Guys, Puffy64, DJ Lizard, Razor and the Scumettes and the German band Glückswald (http://www.glueckswald.de).

	Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders
		Zak is tired of dreaming up yams about vegetarian vampires and carnivorous cantaloupes, but he agrees to do this one last story before he writes his novel.
		Zak's dream is also a convenient place to run the credits for this zany adventure by Lucasfilm Games.
		Zak and his friends have to solve dozens of puzzles, and there are a number of possible solutions.

	Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders
		Zak didn't dream often, and when he did all he usually remembered were a couple of grainy fl-and-white images, some lingering emotions, and a lot of bluster.
		Zak was coming to the faint patch of red/grey that indicated his exit, so he decided to cross the room.
		Zak stared at this for a while before finally placing it - it was the base of the device, as seen in his dream.

	Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders - Commodore 64 Review
		The main character in Zak McKracken is a tabloid writer, so the game came with a little "issue" of the magazine he supposedly wrote for, the National Inquisitor.
		She fills Zak in on the nature of the crystal and its purpose, and so begins his adventure that will pit Zak against the evil Alien organization and "The King", evil mega phone-conglomerate TPC, and help him figure out how to raise his consciousness and lower his golf scores.
		Zak McKracken is equally hard to die in, and for that, I think I appreciate these old LucasArts games more than I liked the old PC Sierra adventures.

	Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders walkthrough - solution
		Zak is upset by this, as he wants a real story that will win him the Pulitzer Prize.
		That very night he has a bizarre dream in which Zak is faced with a giant face on mars, a mysterious map, an attractive woman in pink, a mysterious machine, a giant pair of Groucho Marx disguise glasses and a huge yellow ankh, all whilst listening to a damned catchy tune.
		It seems that aliens are trying to take over the Earth, and somehow Annie had a dream in which she was told how to defeat them.

		Zak should USE the yellow crystal shards on the altar, then USE the flag pole on the little notch on the left.
		Zak should USE the yellow crystal to teleport to the dot on the map near Cairo.
		Have Zak USE the glowing object on the base, USE the candelabra on the glowing object, and USE each of the three crystals in their proper position as shown in your dream and the diagram in Annie's office.

	Zak McKracken for beginners
		Nobody is claiming that Zak was ever going to "An Educational Game" (whatever that is) or deadly serious (games should be fun!) but the deeper side of Zak is what attracted me. And probably explains why no other game seems to have quite that special something.
		Zak is non-violent, it's real world (mostly!), it's mind expanding, it explores, it has more female characters than males, and treats them as human.
		Zak was possibly the first and last game to successfully combine fun with mind expanding ideas.

	Another Zak Mckracken and the Alien Mindbenders Review [Archive] - Adventure Forums
		Zak was the second adventure game by Lucasarts that really turrned heads, and went on to be an award winning game for it's awsome story.
		You play as Zak Mckracken (you might have guessed that), a reporter for a sleezy tabloid and who's only ambishion in life is to win a Politzer award.
		Zak isn't a bad game by any means, but it doesn't deserve most of the praise it gets.

	The International House of Mojo - Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders
		As the story begins, Zak McKracken, ace reporter for the National Inquisitor tabloid, has a dream one night which reveals an alien conspiracy to take over Earth.
		Eventually the game expands to let you control four characters: Zak, Annie Larris (an expert on ancient cultures), and Melissa and Leslie, two Yale coeds who managed to travel to Mars in a van-turned-spaceship.
		But one night in bed, Zak McKracken uncovers evidence of an extraterrestrial plot.

	Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders Reviews - Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders Player Reviews - Zak ...
		You are Zac, your average tabloid journalist who suddenly comes upon an alien scheme to make all humans on Earth ALOT stupider with a little gadget of theirs which transmits mind-bending hums over the phone lines and such, thus, the Alien Mindbenders get to take Earth from right under our brainless noses.
		The aliens assume nobody will recognize them with a pair of ''nose glasses'', but even the aliens (who resemble the Aliens from the film 'Bad Taste', might I add) aren't the brightest light bulbs.
		Tons of ridiculous adult humor are amuck here in Zac McKracken, all among the lines of Saturday Night Live material, especially Zac's cheesy tabloid heading ideas, and even some cruel fl humor involving a goldfish and a garbage disposal, which earned this some criticism just like Maniac Mansion and its hamster tidbit.

		These innovations were immediately taken into account by the competition, especially Sierra.
		Gilbert's attempts, Maniac Mansion and Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders, however, remained in 16 colors, and the point-and-click engine wasn't completely integrated since the player would still have to construct sentences using clickable keywords combined with objects in the game.
		It was The Secret Of Monkey Island that was finally a complete work, with 256 colors, a complete point-and-click engine, a dialogue system with optional responses, puzzles solved with items, original graphics, atmosphere music, and a characteristic sense of humor.

	Review: Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders \| Gameology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		All of these intergame references really help to produce a sort of "meta game" across the Lucas Arts library; even though Zak and MM are certainly not "sequels" or the like, there is enough continuity here to make them fit nicely together.
		Perhaps the very worst is the high volume of frustrating "mazes." The mazes seem to be randomly generated at times; though I am pretty good at making maps, I discovered that doing so was useless here.
		In short, Zak is a good game that deserves its place in any serious GAG collection.

		Oh, and since there has been an alien sighting there, you must check this out too.
		Both the squirrel and the aliens are real and it is up to you to stop them (not the squirrel the aliens — who want to make us all stupider than they are — not a really hard task I suppose).

		This item is not eligible for Amazon Prime, but over a million other items are.
		Following up on LUcasARts success with "Maniac Mansion", Zak McCracken & the mindbenders was a storyline game similar in content & operation to most other lucas arts story games, (i.e.-Monkey Island series, Day of the Tentacle, Sam & Max, etc.) This game needs to be brought back to life in some form!!
		I'd play the old version if my computer could run it correctly, but as is the problem with all of these Lucas games from the late 80's/early 90's..
