This is the NES version of Maniac Mansion running in ScummVM. This combines both NES-specific skips with the mouse-and-keyboard interface and a much higher clock speed to make for a very fast and fun speedrun.
This is a proof of concept 5:40 run. Many mistakes were made and could likely be brought down considerably with better routing and cleaner play.
Additionally, keyboard hotkeys for functions like Get and Open are finnicky, I don't know if this is on my end or something intrinsic to running the game this way. Whatever the case, I often avoided them during this run, which further contributed to time loss.
