                    MEAN STREETS SOLUTION  
                    ---------------------  
                   
  
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."
