Deaths
One of the more iconic parts of Macventure games are the deaths. There are a number of ways to die, and each one has its own unique dialogue to accompany it. I’m not going to spoil what those say, you should definitely check that out for yourself if you want to. This list serves a dual purpose: it can be used to avoid all deaths, or to be able to die in all the ways possible. As far as I know, this list is complete.
- Take too long to get out of the car
- Use Axe on Self
- Use either of the Knives on Self
- After making Scarlet appear, try to leave by an exit other than the stairs or the door to the foyer
- Hit Scarlet
- Try to Use the No Ghost on Scarlet without first Opening it.
- Search the dresser in the Guest Bedroom and take the Ruby. To die, don’t Leave the Ruby when you’re in an outside area.
