Jerry Martin plays Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People - Part 23 of 53


It's time for Episode Three. At this point, the episodes start getting more interesting.


Episode 3: Baddest of the Bands

At the start of Episode 3, Strong Bad plays Limozeen's Hot Babelian Odyssey on the Fun Machine. We finally have our Limozeen reference. Up and Down let you move, while Right fires and left shoots bombs. The CTRL key shoots out a tractor beam. As you play, however, the game will glitch up, and the Fun Machine will malfunction before bats fly into the room. Afterwards, Strong Bad realizes the Fun Machine is broken and that he will have to take it to Bubs to get it repaired. From here, you have control.

Get the Black Metal Detector before you do anything else. This time around, it comes with its own shovel detachment, allowing you to immediately dig up anything that you find at the start of the game.

You'll also have a microphone in your inventory, and you can use it in various places to get various things done. If you head to the basement and use the microphone there, a box will magically appear and you'll get the Sloshy Shirt for the photo booth as soon as you examine it.

If you examine the couch in the TV room to the east, you'll find the leopard print pants for the photo booth.

Back on the main floor, check the couch near the window, also known as the Luxo-Lounger. You'll find the Larry Palaroncini shot glass, the first of four Limozeen shot glasses in the episode.

Further to the right is the kitchen. If you examine it, Strong Bad will shock himself. (This is for a new achievement called "Strong Bad Abuse," and you'll need to do this to get credit for it.)

Further to the right still is the front door and the mailbox. If you go to the mailbox and use the microphone there, another box will pop up containing the Perry Palaroncini shot glass.

Back in Strong Bad's house, check the fridge and click on the aerosol cheese. Take it. You'll need this for later.

Upstairs and to the right is Strong Bad's computer room. Take the lighter; you'll need it later. Also, examine the plug. When you unplug it, Strong Bad will shock himself again. You can also examine the Ordinary Light Switch to turn the lights on and off to get the cover for the Limozeen's Hot Babelian Odyssey game.

Left of the computer room is Strong Sad. Talk to him about bats once, and he will mention "the Von Blaudbloods," a rich lineage of fruit bats that Strong Sad is raising from his bat hutch. If you talk about the bats again, you'll find out that the hutch is indoors because the bats love the delicate mixture of dank and damp in his room. 

Further to the left of Strong Sad's room is the bathroom and Strong Mad's room. On the dresser is an album cover defaced by Strong Bad with a woman carrying a sword and a giant dinosaur. 

Go to the map. Place Bubs' Concession Stand on the map wherever you want, then head there.

If you click on the contest entry form on the concession stand, Strong Bad will take it and read it. It seems that Limozeen need a new album cover and that they are holding a sweepstakes to see who can send a cool enough photo. Whoever gets their photo chosen gets to spend a whole day with the band, much to the delight of Strong Bad.

If you use the Black Metal Detector on the right side of Bubs' Concession Stand, you'll find the Two-o-Duo page of the Limozeen game manual.
