     Intro:  So your Aunt Hildegarde has died but in order to inherit
     her fortune,  you must collect 10 treasures by 9:00 am the next
     morning. In this text file,  I'll TRY to describe and tell you how
     to solve each puzzle and get each treasure.  This is all from
     memory so if I can't seem to remember how to do it exactly,  I'll
     give you hints on how to solve it.

     (*) - By doing this, you'll end up with another treasure.

     1.  How to enter the house:  Go north and open the mailbox and get
     the paper with the peculiar design on it.  Go south, turn the
     statue west, then turn it east, then turn it north.  Aha.. a click
     to the north.

    *2.  How to negotiate the hedge maze:  After entering the house,
     there is a thin piece of paper in the dining room.  Get it and put
     it on top of the other paper with the peculiar design.  Now you
     have the map to the hedge maze.  Be sure to print it out on the
     printer then good luck!  (Remember to have a shovel with you before
     you go in)

    *3.  How to move the cannon:  Get the cannonball from the pile and
     put it in the cannon.  Somewhere in the house you'll find a match.
     Like the cannon with the match and it should move.  Open the
     compartment and get the mask.

    *4.  Getting the diamond ring from Tokyo:  This part is a part I
     really don't remember too well.  It should be fun for you to figure
     out how to do it... but I'll give you some hints anyway.   Keep
     these things in mind:  Do NOT push the red button until I tell you.
     Keep pushing the east button until you can't go anymore (due to the
     encounter with the Tokyo army & air force).  Press the buttons to
     destroy the tanks & planes.  Do not push red button. Black button
     kills tanks and white button destroys planes.  Anyways,  after you
     defeat the tanks & planes, it would be wise to save the game.  Next
     you'll encounter the rocket.  After the truck launches the rocket,
     push green button then push black button.  Move east again.  Now <I
     forgot> Save game if you are in the Park but have not yet destroyed
     the monument.  One of the buttons... Blue I think will get the
     diamond from the monument.  Now after getting the diamond, keep
     moving east until the Chihuahua hits the eastern part of the dome.
     When that happens <here is where the red button comes in handy>,
     push the red button three times.  After the dome has the hole, get
     the diamond ring.  Note:  Wear all treasure that can be worn.

    *5.  Elevator/Closet:  This closet is really an elevator.  To go to
     the floor you wish, just move the corresponding peg.  For ex.,
     basement is the first peg,  foyer is the 2nd peg, and the upstairs
     in the 3rd peg. Go to the 3rd floor,  exit and turn the newel that
     is on top of the stairs.  (This will stop the stairs from turning
     into a slide) To get to the 4th floor <sawed off peg>,  get the
     bucket,  put the elevator on the foyer floor.  Go to the pond in
     the garden and fill the bucket with water, go back to the elevator
     as quick as possible (use the patio door) and hang the bucket on
     the 3rd peg.  Exit the closet and go upstairs (providing that you
     disabled the stairs/slide mechanism) and go to the elevator
     entrance on top of the stairs.  You'll be standing on top of the
     elevator and just wait... the elevator will move up and you'll be
     on the 4th floor.  To open the chest,  open the panel first.

    *6.  Computer:  Get all the punch cards you can find.  There should
     be seven total.  Turn on the computer and insert the punch cards in
     this order:  Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet.
     Look at the indicator lights.   Call the number you get on the
     phone in the living room.  Go back down to the computer and look in
     the hopper. Suprise.. a toupee.  Wear it.

    *7.  Sack on 3rd floor:  Get the sack before opening the window.

    *8.  Chimney:  Enter the chimney in the living room.  Drop all and
     climb the chimney (keep going up until you get to the roof).  Go
     east, go down and get the penguin.  go back up and west, then go
     back down.  Get everything.  All treasures that can't be worn, you
     can just leave in the living room.

     9.  Screening room:  Enter the little booth,  put the filmstrip in
     the movie projector and the slide in the slide projector.  Turn on
     the slide projector (take off lens of both machines) and focus the
     slide projector.  Turn on the movie projector.  Look at the screen.
     Remember what it tells you.

    *10.  Piano:  At the piano, type what the word(s) that you got from
     the screening room.  Open the trap door.  Down.  Go south and get
     the pillar from the niche.  Go north.  You can drop the pillar. Go
     up and push the piano south.  Go down then north and get the
     parking meter.

    *11.  1st Safe:  Move the painting in the hall from the foyer to the
     piano room.  Remember the wax candles.  Remember the # of fingers
     each statue was holding up?  That is combination. So,  knowing the
     colors of our flag,  turn the dial accordingly.  It goes right,
     left, right.

            Hey - that is nine treasures.  All you need is one more!
            <Remember, watch your time!> To continue:  Have these items
            with you: All the wax statue candles.

     12.  Getting past the gap in stairs:  Remember the skis in the
     closet?  Wear them at the top of the stairs and ski down.  At the
     beach,  get the green match.  Light one of the statues with the
     fire (not the match).  Go south, then west into the underground
     cave.

     13.  Underwater passage: Drop all but the wax statues and the green
     match.  Cover the green match with wax (wax is dripping down from
     the burning candle).  You can drop the burning candle. Go down,
     down, west, up, up,  now you will be at the surface of the water.
     Go up again (should be pitch black).  Light the match then once of
     the candles.  Go north, and up.

    *14.  Bomb Shelter:  This room involves a little thinking.  First of
     all,  pull down the right end (the end below the hatch). Pull the
     chain.  Burn the rope.  Stand on the right end. Wait... Now drop
     all... get the ladder, put ladder in hatch.  Get all. Down. Put
     ladder on hooks (or was it in hooks????)... Look at the plaque.
     The Combination is hidden in it.  See the first letter of each of
     there 3 guy's names?  Those are the directions you will have to
     turn the dial.  Also count the letter in each person's name and
     that'll be the number to turn to.

     15.  Come on down!!!:  You opened the second safe and got the film
     reel, note, and peg. You did read the note... did you?  You're
     almost done with the game.  Go back into the house to the closet.
     Put the peg in the hole.  You should be in the prop room.  Your
     evil cousin is here.  Attack him with any object you see.  The
     first few attempts will be in vain but do it anyway.  Once you
     injure him, untie your Aunt.  Now you finished Hollywood Hijinx!!!!
