Sam & Max: Season 1 Hints
What am I doing with these bank accounts?
1 of 9: Your goal is to get all the money into Bosco's account, the one on the bottom. The first step is to unlock it, for which you'll need his password.
2 of 9: Now let's see if we can figure out how this works. Click on an account's name to hear Sam's comments. (Read to the bottom of these hints for a step-by-step solution.)
3 of 9: Clicking on "cook the books" on an account reverses all arrows connected to that account and sends any money connected flying in the new direction.
4 of 9: For example, if you cook the books at Kittens 4 Peace, the two side arrows will point in and the top arrow will point up. This will send the money in the Pro Lobby Lobby into Kittens 4 Peace. Not too helpful, but you can see how it works now.
5 of 9: You can do this puzzle by trial and error; it's not that complex, and if you get hopelessly tangled you can always click on "Uncook" to reset the puzzle. But if you're fed up with it, read on for one solution:
6 of 9: 1. Cook Kittens 4 Peace (that is, click on "cook the books" in the Kittens 4 Peace account). This sends $500,000 to the Kittens.
7 of 9: 2. Cook Toy Mafia. This gives all $1 billion to them
8 of 9: 3. Cook the National Treasury and Bosco. This appears to do nothing, but it sets up their arrows so they'll flip in the right direction with the next move.
9 of 9: 4. Cook Online Gambling. This sends the entire pile first to Grandma Bosco, and then to Bosco -- who is now filthy stinking rich, and you just bought yourself a virus.
