Sam & Max: Season 1 Hints
How do I defeat Auntie Biotic?
1 of 10: What have you got in inventory that might take her down?
2 of 10: Well, nothing, actually. She won't even take you seriously as a threat until you have something more than that ridiculous ray gun your gun morphed into. Maybe the virtual Bosco has something you can buy.
3 of 10: Now you can at least take her on, by using the wooden sword on her --
4 of 10: -- but since she always gets to go first, you never get to the sword since she always takes you down before you get to your turn. We need some armor!
5 of 10: But there aren't any shields or armor around (aside from the stuff she's wearing), and defending yourself with a quip is amusing but not useful. What you need is something that will pop up in front of you.
6 of 10: Like that pop-up ad in the alley next to the Control Room, say.
7 of 10: To use it, first make sure you've turned pop-ups back on (by clicking on the Ping computer in the Control Room again), then go challenge Auntie Biotic again. This time, when the game asks what you want to defend yourself with, use the pop-up.
8 of 10: And you instantly discover that the wooden sword is no use against her +1 armor. You need something more powerful --
9 of 10: -- like maybe that +2 sword that's stuck in the Liver 'n' Onions billboard over Sybil's store.
