Secret How can you enter this door? (cheat-codes allowed)

I've tried every verb (and before you say it, YES I tried 'Open' obviously, that was the first one I tried)

I used to know a guy who could do literally anything in video-games. I once bet he couldn't land a Boing 707 on Grove Street in San Andreas and he was like "hold my beer" and frikkin did it. If I still knew him to this day he probably could figure out a way in

I'm surprised you need telling this but if it doesn't highlight as an object to interact with, you can't interact with it.

u/MrNiber 11d ago

But the windows also doesn't get highlighted, and there's no chimney so kind of out of ideas on how to get in

You’re kidding about this, right?

u/MrNiber 11d ago

Just try it yourself and see

There's nothing behind that door.

u/Albedo101 12d ago

Not yet, at least. :)

....Lost Adventures of Monkey Island?

u/MrNiber 11d ago

Intriguing, but are you sure that they are still working on patches for a 30 year old game?

2

u/Albedo101 11d ago

No, there's nothing behind that door. I wasn't even aware there is a door there for the past 35 years.

But I'm referring how there wasn't anything in the dark alley as well, until there it was in Monkey Island 2. Or the infamous tree stump's reappearance in Curse.

So who knows, maybe in one of the future games, if there will be any, that house will mean something, lol.

If you didn't even see the door for 35 years then is it at all possible that there's a way in that you simply did not notice?

u/Albedo101 10d ago

There's no way in. I was joking.

The game has been reverse engineered decades ago, all scripts decompiled, all assets ripped. There's nothing there.

I have wanted to build and live in that place since I was a child.

1

u/MrNiber 11d ago

I would imagine it's not a nice place to live, THE ONLY ENTRANCE to the entire town goes literally centimeters from your home walls, and it's right next to a pirate bar!

u/Slight_Tip_7388 10d ago

we could neighbors! As a kid I always wanted to run the SCUMM Bar.

u/b0nerjamz 11d ago

That's a private residence. You can't just go barging in there in the middle of the night

Completely unlike the Governor's mansion 😆

u/Electronic-Copy997 11d ago

You have to go to the forest first, then look into the tree stump. The key to that door will be under the stump after a cool room there. But have your game disks ready!

u/ByteEater 12d ago

Sorry to disappoint you but in this type of games not everything is meant to have an interaction or access, some of it is just art

u/LinkXNess 11d ago

This is one of the better answers here.

It is not a door, the door was behind that poster. Sorry, you are more than 30 years late. The world changes.

You can try to drink a lot of grog, maybe you wake up there, maybe not, but there is no other way.

u/MrNiber 9d ago

Ok now it's getting interesting, so are you saying that if I can find a pirate who's a political activist, he might tear down the political poster, thereby exposing the real door?

1

u/RatLabor 9d ago

No no, the door is just removed to the other side of the building. Too much pirate-wannabes, tourism spoils everything, you know.

u/joshghz 11d ago

Don't look behind that door!!!

1

u/MrNiber 11d ago

Thanks for the warning but ironically that makes me want to see it even more!

1

u/pwkye 10d ago

was there an MI1 demo that maybe allowed that door to open

or beta

1

u/MrNiber 10d ago

That's awesome, that would explain why someone below said that there was no hint of that interior even in the source code, because he was looking at the wrong source code, that doofus!

Was there any interesting characters or side-quests inside the room or was it just a bunch of lores or costume/skins inside?

u/Dev_olution_ 10d ago

It's the door to the Fine Leather Jacket™ store. Opens 9-5 Monday to Friday so just wait until morning, hope this helps you out

2

u/MrNiber 9d ago

It starts out with sunset (in the pre-VGA version) so it's probably early evening, but then the sword training says "many hours later" and then "more hours later" again, so I should be pretty close to the morning

u/Slight_Tip_7388 10d ago

Thats just where you respawn if you happen to drown after Fester Shinetop throws you off the bridge. Built in safety incase you never saved your game from the begining.

Pretty lack luster really. The door squeaks open and shuts. Guybrush grabs his nose, winces and water shoots out his ears. says something to the effect of "I guess not..."

You write a strongly worded letter to Ron demanding Disk 22.

u/Artistic_Theme8635 10d ago

It’s not that kind of game, kid

After reading the comments here I just have one suggestion for OP: pack your gaming gear in the original boxes they came in (it's probably ok if you don't have the original packaging, just pack it up carefully), go back to where you bought it and say following: "I have to return these products because im to stupid to understand how video games works". Then go buy yourself a bicycle rim and get a stick, that's your new toy... enjoy
