MEAN STREETS SOLUTION 

                    --------------------- 

                 Compiled by: Lord Ironwolffe 

 

Unless you are really stuck.  I wouldn't recommend using the 

solve since the story of the game will be greatly hindered (and 

its a great story!).  I haven't included what the entire plot is 

so as not to ruin it.  So, use them when you need'em... 

 

SOLVING MEAN STREETS 

-------------------- 

 

Although at first you are investigating into Carl Linsky's 

murder, things get deeper and eventually you find yourself on a 

mad plot to save everyone's brains (you'll understand as you play 

the game).  Your primary objective then, is to gather up all 

eight passcards and passwords from eight scientists and use them 

to activate the destruct sequence on the "central" computer.  

Here are the locations of all the cards and any special things 

required to get them. 

 

 

ORANGE (Cal Davis).  Password: CHECKMATE 

     This is found in the box found in the ape's cage in Cal 

Davis' lab at NC 3720.  To get it, you will need the pole found 

in Greg Call's lab (NC 8911). 

     SECURITY:  Move Rat Cages.  Open Control Box.  Turn Off 

                Switch. 

 

PURPLE (Greg Call).  Password: KNIGHT 

     This is found on the shelf behind the vines on the large 

stalagtite in his lab at NC 8911.  You will need the leather 

gloves found in Cal Davis' Lab (NC 3720). 

     SECURITY:  Move small Stalagtite.  On/Off Button. 

 

BLUE (Carl Linsky).  Password: BISHOP 

     This is found in Carl Linsky's Lab/Warehouse at NC 4675.  It

is found in the Band Aids can inside the wall-mounted Cabinet. 

     SECURITY:  Open Bar.  Move Shoebox.  Turn Off Switch. 

 

RED (Ron Morgan).  Password: STALEMATE 

     This is found in Ron Morgan's Beach House at NC 6470.  It is

inside the fish tank containing the killer fish.  You will 

require the fish food (to occupy them) which is found behind the

plant in the upper left corner of the room. 

     SECURITY:  On/Off Button 3 on Coffee Table. 

 

GREEN (John Klause).  Password: PAWN 

     Find John at NC 7012 and ask for it. 

 

YELLOW (Sam Jones).  Password: QUEEN 

     Find Sam at NC 0021 and ask for it (you may have to beat or

bribe it out of him). 

 

GREY (Larry Hammond).  Password: KING 

     Enter the Law and Order's Head Office at NC 5037.  It should

be in the safe (whose combination is in the closet inside the 

coat). 

     SECURITY: On/Off Button at Desk.  Open Closet. (It's in 

               there somewhere! - Can't remember right now.) 

 

BLACK (Bosworth Clark).  Password: ROOK 

     This can be found in the Bus Station at NC 5194.  You will 

require the key found in Frank Schimming's/Lola Lovetoy's 

Apartment (NC 4605)

     SECURITY: Move Art.  On/Off Button. 

 

NOTE:  Some of the security systems are only activated if you try

       to steal something valuable. 

 

[==============================================================] 

 

That's all it takes to solve it.  But there is a lot of running 

around and a lot of interaction between characters in order to 

find the locations for most of these places and people (along 

with getting roughed up a little, getting sprayed with mace, and

getting a whopping kick to the groin). 

 

Though the company must have over estimated the difficulty of 

their game.  What they judged as taking 20-40 hours, I completed

in about 10 to 10 1/2.  Though, the game wasn't easy... just 

didn't take THAT long. 

 

I've also included the "Mean Streets Yellow Pages: Everyone 

you'll ever wanna meat in Mean Streets."
