Dave Melanson's Semi-Official Walkthrough for "I Have No Mouth, and
I Must Scream" by Cyberdreams.
(worked out after reading the original short story MANY a time...)
Before I start, let me just say that Harlan Ellison's original
story is a true masterpiece of short horror fiction. And it is possible
to get the same ending as the short story in the game. But, I think
you'd rather avoid that, unless you're feeling particularly suicidal; it's
quite depressing. Unlike my other walkthroughs, this is divided up into
sections by character names, except for the last section, which can be
done by any character...IF Nimdok is dead. If he isn't dead, you HAVE to
use him because he's the only one with the password. Actually, I like him
best (yeah, I know, I would...so would ANY Slayer fan..."Angel of Death,"
anyone?) Also, small warning about this game: some of the items you have
to pick up are VERY small; sweep the cursor around until it registers that
they are there. Also, a word about doors; you usually have to USE them to
go through them, so if I don't specifically say otherwise, to go through
a door, "USE" it. If your characters "die" at the end of each part,
provided you did everything I've laid out, don't worry...you did it right.
Nobody ever said this was a HAPPY game, now did they? The order of the
characters, in case you're wondering, at the Hate Pillar, is the order I've
presented them here, from left to right: Gorrister, Ellen, Benny, Nimdok,
and Ted. There is no specific order in which you "have" to do the five
characters. Also, I would like to say...Harlan himself does a MASTERFUL
job as the voice of AM!
Also, wherever you got this, it and several other walkthrus I have
done are available at my Website:
http://www.ici.net/customers/overkill/overkill.htm
and choose the "PC Games Page" option. These walkthrus include ones for
Stonekeep, Gabriel Knight 1 & 2, The Dig, The 7th Guest, The 11th Hour,
Phantasmagoria, and several others.

5.} "What can you tell me about the devil?" 6.} "What power does this
mirror have over Ellen?" 7.} "Who is this Surgat I've heard about?"

where Ellen's mirror is!" 2.} "Where is Ellen's mirror?"
Talk to Ellen. Tell her "There's an angel and a devil quarreling over

Follow the neural path around until you reach the Ego pylon. (It looks like
a ram's head) Walk up to the Ego, and talk to it, asking first "Who are you?"
then "Are you AM?" then "You want to harm me, don't you?" Choose Just Walk

brainscape?" 3.} "Can you help me, then?" 4.} "What do you find

to the nueral path and walk to the Pit area. Walk to the bridge, all the
way to the flame. Once there, invoke the Totem of Entropy. The endgame
takes over...not exactly the happiest ending in the universe, but it's
about as good a victory as you can possibly get in this hellish game.
GAME OVER, MAN!
I Must Scream" by Cyberdreams.
(worked out after reading the original short story MANY a time...)
Before I start, let me just say that Harlan Ellison's original
story is a true masterpiece of short horror fiction. And it is possible
to get the same ending as the short story in the game. But, I think
you'd rather avoid that, unless you're feeling particularly suicidal; it's
quite depressing. Unlike my other walkthroughs, this is divided up into
sections by character names, except for the last section, which can be
done by any character...IF Nimdok is dead. If he isn't dead, you HAVE to
use him because he's the only one with the password. Actually, I like him
best (yeah, I know, I would...so would ANY Slayer fan..."Angel of Death,"
anyone?) Also, small warning about this game: some of the items you have
to pick up are VERY small; sweep the cursor around until it registers that
they are there. Also, a word about doors; you usually have to USE them to
go through them, so if I don't specifically say otherwise, to go through
a door, "USE" it. If your characters "die" at the end of each part,
provided you did everything I've laid out, don't worry...you did it right.
Nobody ever said this was a HAPPY game, now did they? The order of the
characters, in case you're wondering, at the Hate Pillar, is the order I've
presented them here, from left to right: Gorrister, Ellen, Benny, Nimdok,
and Ted. There is no specific order in which you "have" to do the five
characters. Also, I would like to say...Harlan himself does a MASTERFUL
job as the voice of AM!
Also, wherever you got this, it and several other walkthrus I have
done are available at my Website:
http://www.ici.net/customers/overkill/overkill.htm
and choose the "PC Games Page" option. These walkthrus include ones for
Stonekeep, Gabriel Knight 1 & 2, The Dig, The 7th Guest, The 11th Hour,
Phantasmagoria, and several others.

then talk to her AGAIN!) 13.} "Please, I need to find a mirror."
14.} "Where can I find the old woman?"
Walk to the left door (hallway). Walk to the doorway under the pentagram.
Take the icon. Push the third sconce from the left. Walk to the secret
passage. Talk to the witch, with the following sequence:
1.} "What have you done to Ellen, you old witch?" 2.} "Why do you call
me a prince?" 3.} "What ritual are you talking about?" 4.} "What's
this about a gate?" 5.} "What's supposed to be my role in this ritual?"
6.} "So you just want me to break the mirror?" 7.} "Why can't you
destroy the mirror yourself?" 8.} "Where is Ellen's mirror?"
9.} "I looked on Ellen's dressing table. The mirror's not there."
10.} "Why can't you open the gate without the mirror?" 11.} "What if I
can't find the mirror?" 12.} "What's in it for me if I help you?"
13.} "I ought to kill you instead!"
Walk to the stairs, back to the chapel. Walk to the doorway to the hall.
Walk to the center doorway. Talk to the devil (yes, I'm serious). Use
this sequence:
1.} "Who are you?" 2.} "What do you want?" 3.} "Can you tell me where
Ellen's mirror is?" 4.} "Who is this Surgat I've heard about?"
5.} "It sounds like you really hate demons!" 6.} "How can beings as
powerful as yourselves stoop to fighting like school children?"
7.} "Are you saying that AM is in control of Hell?" 8.} "What do you
mean that you do things like we do here?" 9.} "What problems can
these unseen struggles cause for me?" 10.} "Please, go away!"
Talk to Ellen, and use this sequence:
1.} "I can't let you die! The devil is waiting to take your soul!"
2.} "Who is this witch who lives here with you?" 3.} "Go back to
sleep, Ellen."
Walk out the doorway to the hall again. Walk to the right doorway.
Use the books. Read "Secrets of Necronomiconic Summoning" and "Double,
Double, Toil and Trouble." Walk to the door. Walk to the doorway under the
pentagram. Push on the third sconce from the left, and walk through the
secret passage. Talk to the witch with this series of dialogue choices:
1.} "I know all about the sleeping spell you've cast on Ellen. And I am
prepared to use it on you!" 2.} "Oh, don't I? Kalla Ingma Thacko!"
(Note: be ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN YOU GET THAT ONE RIGHT!)
Take the chalk. Use the chalk with the circle. You'll start a conversation
with a demon who appears (boy, what a friendly game, huh?)
1.} "Who are you?" 2.} "Are you saying that you are another AM?"
3.} "What kind of locks can you open?" 4.} "What were you saying about
a trade?" 5.} "Can you unlock the maid's bedroom door?" (Give the
glass with your blood on it to him) 6.} "Can you unlock the maid's
bedroom door?" 7.} "I don't believe you can unlock the maid's bedroom door
from here!"
Walk to the stairs, then out of the chapel into the hall. Use the icon
with the door on the left that's broken off one hinge. Push the armor.
(Note: If you DON'T do this, at some later point, a wolf gets into the
castle and eats you alive. Great...) Walk to the doorway to the kitchen.
Use the maid's door; it's now open. Look at the tapestry. Walk to the
door, back into the kitchen. Walk to the door on the left to go back to the
hall. Walk to the door under the pentagram, push the 3rd sconce from the
left, go back through the secret passage, and talk to Surgat again.
1.} "You're as good as your word! The maid's bedroom was unlocked!"
2.} "I already gave you something-some drops of my blood!" 3.} "Can
you open a gate to the surface world?" 4.} "You say love has trading
value?" 5.} "How about taking the witch's soul instead?"
6.} "Let me think about your offer."
Walk to the stairs, exit the chapel back to the hall. Go to the center door.
Talk to the angel with this dialogue sequence:
1.} "Who are you?" 2.} "What do you want?" 3.} "Can you tell me where
Ellen's mirror is?" 4.} "Why is everyone so interested in the mirror?"
5.} "What can you tell me about the devil?" 6.} "What power does this
mirror have over Ellen?" 7.} "Who is this Surgat I've heard about?"
8.} "Please! Save us!"
Now go over and talk to the devil again, with this sequence:
1.} "I've seen the tapestry in the maid's bedroom, and I think you do know
where Ellen's mirror is!" 2.} "Where is Ellen's mirror?"
Talk to Ellen. Tell her "There's an angel and a devil quarreling over
your soul!" then "Go back to sleep, Ellen." Walk back to the hallway, then
through the left doorway. Use the books. Read the Divine Comedy to find
the mirror. Stop reading, then walk back to the hall, then back to the
center doorway. Talk to the devil, tell him "I found Ellen's mirror!"
Use the mirror on the devil. Talk to Ellen with this sequence:
1.} "There's an angel here waiting to take your soul, Ellen. Do you want
to go with him?" 2.} "I found your mirror, Ellen."
Use the mirror on her, then walk to the hallway. Walk back to the doorway
under the pentagram, push the third sconce, and walk through the secret
passage. Use the mirror with the circle, and choose the following
dialogue sequence:
1.} "I brought you some company, Surgat!" 2.} "Why, AM's responsible
for our suffering!" 3.} "Open the gate to the surface world first,
and then I'll erase the circle." This will end Ted's story, though not on
a very pleasant note (like any of these really have?)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE FINAL CONFLICT: Use Nimdok; he's the only one that knows the password.
You start at the Pit. Use the pit workstation. Type 1945. Select "Extend
Bridge." Select "Log Off." Walk to thr bridge to the flame. Use the
"Summoning Totem" with the circle. Use the following dialogue choices:
1.} "Show me the way out of here!" 2.} "What do you have to show me?"
3.} "What do you know about the people who sent me here?" 4.} "What
do the Russian and Chinese computers want?" 5.} "If the Russian and
Chinese are submerged parts of AM, then who are you?" 6.} "Does AM know
about the lunar colony?" 7.} "Just what are all these Totems I'm
carrying?" 8.} "How can actions take physical forms?" 9.} "Why
do you want me to give you the Totem of Entropy?" 10.} "I refuse."
11.} "Why do you want me to invoke the Totem of Compassion?" 12.} "I
refuse."
Then invoke the Totem of Compassion. Walk to the bridge, back to the pit.
Follow the neural path around until you reach the Ego pylon. (It looks like
a ram's head) Walk up to the Ego, and talk to it, asking first "Who are you?"
then "Are you AM?" then "You want to harm me, don't you?" Choose Just Walk
Away, then use the Forgiveness totem on the Ego. Now walk along the neural
path some more until you reach the Super Ego pylon (looks like a blue, bald
human face) Talk to the Superego. Use this sequence:
1.} "Who are you?" 2.} "How did you know I was coming?" 3.} "If
you're a part of AM, why haven't you destroyed me?" 4.} "Can you
help me, then?" 5.} "What advice do you have for me?"
Use the Clarity Totem with the Superego. Now walk along the neural path
until you reach the Id pylon. (Looks like a grinning evil clown face) Walk
up to the Id, and talk to it, using this sequence:
1.} "Who are you?" 2.} "What else can you tell me about the
brainscape?" 3.} "Can you help me, then?" 4.} "What do you find
pleasurable about broken glass?"
Choose Just Walk Away, then use the Compassion Totem on it. Now walk back
to the nueral path and walk to the Pit area. Walk to the bridge, all the
way to the flame. Once there, invoke the Totem of Entropy. The endgame
takes over...not exactly the happiest ending in the universe, but it's
about as good a victory as you can possibly get in this hellish game.
GAME OVER, MAN!
