In this iteration of the Locked Door series, you still need to unlock a locked door. Introducing many more locations including an old garage, a chasm with a rusty drawbridge, a softball field, a locker room, and a mysterious passage.
This solution is by David Welbourn, and is based on Release 1 of the game.
