1. Introduction
===============================================================================
This is an educational adventure in the style of the EcoQuest games. The game
features a girl named Pepper and her dog Lockjaw. Being seen by her evil uncle
one day, Pepper and Lockjaw are both thrown into a time machine which sends
them back to Philadelphia in 1764. Time has been altered, and various things
from the future are now being seen in the past. It's up to Pepper and her dog
to try and put things back the way they were.
===============================================================================
2. Walkthrough
===============================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1. Act I: Pepper Travels Through Time
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The game starts in the front garden. Use the tap to fill the dog bowl. Get the
gum from the path and give it to Lockjaw. Get the soft gum and use it on the
piece of drainpipe on the grass. Get the piece of drainpipe and use it on the
drainpipe on the house. Use the drainpipe to try to climb up to the roof.
Lockjaw won't let Pepper climb up. As Lockjaw, use the paw icon on the
flowerbed to find the harness. As Pepper, get the harness and use it on Lockjaw
to climb up to the drainpipe. Select the roof to climb off the drainpipe. Use
the window to clean it. Look through the window to see Fred. Pepper and Lockjaw
will fall through into the room with Fred, and he will throw Lockjaw into the
time machine. Use the time machine to travel back to the year 1764.
[JLR note: If you use the tap twice, Lockjaw will drink a second time and then
walk over and "use" the tree as a place to relieve himself.
If Pepper and/or Lockjaw look at the bird 3 times, the bird lays a giant Easter
Egg. She looks a bit stressed out from it all. Luckily that's the only way
this game lays an egg...
Touch the flowers to get Mrs. O'Brien to pop her head out her window, and then
talk to her. You can do this multiple times, but you only get points for the
first iteration.
Don't touch the spinning wheel where you see Lockjaw's tail until you want to
depart. Take a little time and check out the room. There's nothing to pick
up, but you can discover Uncle Fred has stolen a world globe from the school
and has a can of red paint he has plans for... Click the microphone on the
microwave to find out how hefty a microwave Uncle Fred is using.]
Talk to the man in the stocks twice. Get the dipper from the bucket and use it
on the bucket to fill it with water. Give the dipper to the man in the stocks
and then use the stocks to free the man. A watchman will arrest Pepper for
freeing the man and will throw her into the storage shed. Get the hammer on top
of the crate. Use the hammer on the nails on the window. Get the canvas at the
right side of the shed. Use the hammer, nails and canvas on the window to block
the view of the guard.
[JLR note: After you put up the canvas, get the herbs on the right side of the
ceiling.]
Move the crate at the left side of the shed and Pepper will fall asleep.
[JLR note: Smell the dirt before using the paw icon.]
As Lockjaw, use the paw icon on the dirt to dig a hole. As Pepper, use the hole
to escape the shed. Get the pebbles from the alley Get the bone on the floor.
Use the bone on the baby clothes and the boy clothes. Get the clothes from the
floor. Use the boy clothes on Pepper and the baby clothes on Lockjaw. When the
watchman appears, walk to the alley to hide from the watchman. Answer the quiz
questions to complete the act.

2.2. Act II: Pepper Explores Philadelphia
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
West. Talk to either guard in front of the bridge. Get the string from the
tree. East. Talk to the man playing frisbee. East. Talk to the man playing
frisbee. Talk to the people on the bench. Get the bag near the tree. East. Use
the pebbles on the top window of the sewing shop and talk to the woman. Knock
on the door of the millinery shop and talk to the woman. Enter the bakery and
talk to the woman. Exit the bakery. West. Walk up the top-left path to the
street. Knock on the door of the pub and talk to the man. Talk to the man on
the bench and he will ask for marbles. Open the bag in the inventory and then
give the bag to the man to receive a shilling.
Knock on the door of the shop and talk to the woman. Enter the post office and
talk to both men. Try to get the package from the left side of the counter.
Answer the three questions to get the package. Exit the post office. South.
Walk up the top-right path. Give the shilling to the guard to walk up the path
to Ben Franklin's house.
[JLR note: he seems to assume you will know the answers to questions about Ben
Franklin. I didn't. You need a copy of the manual. Mark Seibert has a web
site that had it at https://www.markseibert.com/. (He also has what seems to be
the original script or plan for the game. There are several variations from
what actually got produced.) You get a random selection from the following.
True: Ben was born on Milk St. in Boston.
Say false: Ben was NOT the oldest child in his family.
Say false: Ben did NOT like soap making.
Say false: Silence Dogwood is NOT his cousin.
True: Ben did run away at 17 to Philadelphia.
Say false: The Leather Apron members did NOT work with leather.
True: The King of France did congratulate Ben on electricity experiments.
True: Ben was planning on going to England this year.
Say false: Ben did NOT meet his future wife Deborah in Boston when just a boy.]
As Lockjaw, smell the window sill, the dog bed, the water dish, the dresser,
the bookcase, the bone and the door. Drink from the bowl. Eat the dresser, the
sweets, the key and the bone. Use the key on the dog bed to hide it. Use the
mouth icon on the butler when he enters the room. Use the dog bed to get the
key. Bite the clock to open the secret tunnel and then walk north to enter the
closet.
[JLR note: Also use the bone on the dog bed to hide it in addition to the key.
To get the key back you can use the paw on the bed or bite the bed, but
apparently you cannot get the bone back out of the bed. Lockjaw keeps losing
bones. Instead of biting the butler, use Lockjaw's fleas on the butler to get
4 points. This needs to be done fairly promptly after the butler shows up, or
the program takes over and does a bite.
You can use the fleas on just about everything in this room, although you only
get points for the butler. Try using the fleas on the water bowl to find out
they have life preservers...
If he drinks twice from the bowl, he'll relieve himself on the clothes
dummy. Bite the dummy to shred the dress (apparently not needed, but fun...)
The seamstress later makes a comment about suggesting Ima Pugh dye the dress
yellow when the girl wants it fixed. Lockjaw gave it a permanent stain?
(this comment shows up when Pepper talks to the seamstress about the Pughs.)]
Use the paw icon on the shroud to move it. Smell the rat hole and then bite the
rat hole. Walk east to enter the tunnel. Walk to the fire at the end of the
tunnel to see the general. As Pepper, walk south. Talk to either guard three
times and they will both leave. Get the piece of tin on the grass. North. Knock
on the door and talk to Deborah. Knock on the door again and show the package
to Deborah. Use the package in the inventory to find the electricity book. Open
the book in the inventory and then look at it to find out how to make a Leyden
jar. Knock on the door again and show the book to Deborah. Answer the quiz
questions to complete the act.
[JLR note: The book directs you to the user manual for a diagram.
By the way, you can walk south and talk to the guards in Act III if you don't
do it here.]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.3. Act III: Pepper and the Kite/Key Experiment
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get the tomato from the tomato patch. Talk to Ben to receive a string and a
doctrine of personal mellowness. East.
[JLR note: If you click the truth icon on Ben's notes on his desk, you get a
remark about how he liked to write to pretty young women. Ahem, this may be a
veiled reference to his pursuit of females. Apparently he was well-known for
his amorous adventures while in France.]
Get the schematic from the printing press.
[JLR note: Look at the schematic in your inventory.]
Get the rubber stopper and magnet from the bin at the right side of the room.
West. Show the schematic to Ben and he will ask Pepper for hot water. East.
South. Try to get the matches from the stove. Talk to Sally. Use the tomato on
Pepper and Sally will heat the water in Ben's bath.
[JLR note: If you really want to kill time, before you use the tomato here,
take it over to the guards at the river at Penn mansion (Pugh house) and use it
on them. Don't worry, you won't lose it, but the guards have an interesting
discussion about how tomatoes are in the deadly nightshade family and therefore
are poisonous.]
East. South. Open the sideboard at the left side of the room and get the recipe
card. South. Pepper will be transported back to Ben Franklin's boyhood.
[JLR note: Talk to young Ben, the guy in the pond.]
Get the picnic cloth and then use it on Pepper to scare Darcy. Get the clothes
and give them to Ben to travel to the candle and soap shop. Wait for Ben to
enter the room. Give him the string to receive the kite. Pepper will return to
1764.
[JLR note: While in the soap shop, you only have a limited amount of time to
look around before you leave. There's nothing you have to pick up, but if
you are trying to cover all of the quiz questions you should click the truth
icon on the blue ball that you can see through the doorway. No points lost if
you don't. If you don't give the cotton string to Ben, his father gives him
a whipping.]
South. South. Talk to Richard in the stall. Try to get the key to get three
proverbs. Talk to both people on the bench and then give the quarreling proverb
to the woman. East. Enter the bakery and talk to the woman. Give her the recipe
card to receive the jar of cabbage. Exit the bakery. West. Walk up the top-left
path to the street. Knock on the pub door and talk to the man. Give him the
food proverb. Give the jar of cabbage to the goat to get the empty jar. Enter
the post office and talk to both men. Give the laziness proverb to the right
man. South. South. Talk to Richard to receive three more proverbs. Talk to the
man with the frisbee.
[JLR note: Throckmorton says he feels the "need to fling". I feel the urge to
hurl...]
West. Talk to Marty and then give him the work proverb. East. East. Knock on
the door of the millinery shop and talk to the woman. Give her the gossip
proverb. West. Walk up the top-left path to the street. Knock on the shop door
and talk to the woman. Give her the money proverb. South. Talk to Richard to
receive two more proverbs.

top-right path. North. Open the door to enter the house. North. West. Combine
the sheet of tin with the empty jar in the inventory. Use the jar on Ben's bath
to fill it with water. Combine the stopper with the jar in the inventory. Get
the iron rod from the cabbage patch.
[JLR note: That rod doesn't exactly jump out at you does it? It's just to the
left of the hot tub. ]
Combine the iron rod with the jar to complete the Leyden jar. Give the Leyden
jar, the schematic, the kite, the string and the key to Ben. Answer the quiz
questions to complete the act.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.4. Act IV: Lockjaw and the Stamp Tax
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Get the backscratcher, fan, lever, paddles and the stepstool. East. Use the
stepstool on the ladder and then use the ladder to climb up. Open the window
and then open the cage to free the pigeon. As Lockjaw, walk north. East. North
to the fireplace. North to the study.
[JLR note: Look at the slippers before biting them.]
Bite the slippers to hide under the desk. Bite Pugh and then get the letter
from the desk.
[JLR note: OR, instead of biting Pugh, put the paw icon on the jar of wig
powder that is on the desk for extra points. Then get the letter and vamoose.]
East.
[JLR note: Smell the pigeon. Lockjaw detects Pepper's scent, thus giving him
a bit more motive for his next action.]
Give the letter to the pigeon. As Pepper, get the letter. Down. South. Talk to
Sally. South. South. South. East. Enter the bakery and talk to the woman. Give
her the fan and she will agree to make Pepper a cake when she has chocolate.
Exit the bakery. Knock on the door of the millinery shop and talk to the woman.
Use the pebbles on the top window of the sewing shop and talk to the woman.
West. Walk up the top-left path to the street. Knock on the door of the pub and
talk to the man. Talk to the man on the bench. Knock on the door of the shop
and talk to the woman. Enter the post office and talk to the both men. Exit the
post office.
South. South. Talk to both people on the bench. Move the stamp act sign on the
tree and [JLR note: Look at the heart on the tree, and then] pull the knob on
the carved writing to open a secret door. Get the puzzle box and then use it in
the inventory. Solve the puzzle to get the love letters from the box.
[JLR note: I never could solve the puzzle completely. I was always stuck with
2 pieces I couldn't swap, so I always click the "Help" button to finish it.
Doesn't seem to hurt the point score. After solving the puzzle, go into your
inventory and use the finger icon on the bundle of love letters. This gives
you a point, but I've no idea why.]
West. Talk to Marty and Throckmorton. Talk to either guard and then show them
the king's letter to enter the storage shed. Talk to Richard. Show him the love
letters. Open the carpetbag in the inventory and give the carpetbag to Richard.
Answer the quiz questions to complete the act.
[JLR note: There are no extra points for it, but you can milk a bit more
dialogue from Poor Richard by first showing him the King's letter and then the
carpetbag BEFORE showing him the love letters. (You could skip this, but you
miss all the names Deborah calls Ben... It adds motive as to why you had to
drag those love letters in here.) You will then have to repeat showing him the
carpetbag. Don't forget to open the carpetbag in your inventory before showing
it.]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.5. Act V: Pepper Visits the Constitutional Convention
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Talk to Ben and show him the king's letter. Use the lever and get the letters.
South. South. South. South. East. Enter the bakery and talk to the woman. Give
her a letter. Exit the bakery. Knock on the door of the millinery shop and talk
to the woman. Give her a letter. Use the pebbles on the top window of the
sewing shop and talk to the woman. Give her a letter. West. Walk up the
top-left path to the street. Knock on the door of the pub and talk to the man.
Give him a letter. Talk to the man on the bench. Give him a letter. Knock on
the door of the shop and talk to the woman. Give her a letter. Enter the post
office and talk to both men. Give Billy a letter. Exit the post office. South.
[JLR note: As you pass out letters, people ask Pepper for her name. She is
giving the names (slightly mangled) of famous newscasters, of course, like
Dan Rather, Ed Bradley, Connie Chung, Walter Cronkite, Lou Grant (fictional
character on TV), Barbara Walters, etc. I thought I'd better mention it since
younger folk may not recognize some of these dinosaurs.]
Talk to both people on the bench. Give a letter to the woman. West. Talk to
Marty and Throckmorton. Give a letter to Marty. East. Walk up the top-right
path. Walk north to travel to the constitutional convention. Talk to Ben and
get his glasses on the floor. Give the glasses to Ben.
[JLR note: Talk to Ben again.]
Move the papers on the table and get the herbs. Give the herbs to Ben to travel
to the Washington house.
[JLR note: If you picked up the herbs way back in Act I in the storage
shed/prison, then you are not allowed to move the papers here. Just give Ben
the herbs from the shed. After you're on the door step, be sure to look at the
door knob, which is not the same as the entire door.]
Get the stick and use it on the door to push the key out. Use the magnet
on the door to get the key. Use the key on the door to get a bar of chocolate.
Pepper will return to 1764. Answer the quiz questions to complete the act.
[JLR note: the game gets a bit sentimental here. If you talk to Ben on his
doorstep, he'll be worried about missing his nap. If you touch him, there's
a message about you patting Ben reassuringly on the arm. And the house is
falling apart, along with Ben's health. Yep, time does all of us in,
eventually. Deborah Read Franklin died of a stroke in 1774, so she had passed
away before the revolution really started and well before the Constitution
was written. By the way, it was a common-law marriage, because she had
previously married a man who left the country and deserted her, making it
impossible to remarry legally due to bigamy laws. I suppose they figured
it would be a real downer to mention her dying in ten more years or the
common-law marriage in a kiddy game. Common-law marriage doesn't exactly
have the scandalous note to it that it did when I was a kid, anyway.]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.6. Act VI: Pepper and Lockjaw In Penn Mansion
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Talk to Ben to get the kite. South. South. South. South. East. Enter the bakery
and talk to the woman. Give the chocolate to the woman and she will make
bonbons. Pepper will get the bonbons from the table. Exit the bakery. West.
West. West. Give the bonbons to the guard. Use the kite on the river to float
to the back garden. Use the first bush, second bush, third bush, fourth bush
and then the window to enter the house. Get the pencil and paper from the desk.
Combine the pencil with the paper in the inventory to reveal the code for the
safe. Use the painting at the left side of the room to find the safe.
[JLR note: also use the pencil on the painting; Pepper draws a mustache on
Ima. No points for it, but fun.
Goody's bonbons seem to be even better than "magic" brownies. If you talk to
the guards, it seems they have a really good "sugar rush". I assume there's
a veiled reference here to various hippie substances. I was kind of
disappointed that the mudhole in the road wasn't a source for the "chocolate"
for the bonbons, since you're feeding it to the guards. Oh, well...]
Use the safe and turn the dial to 5, 30, 75 to open it. Get the bag of money
and then close the safe. Use the painting to hide the safe. Walk west to be
caught by the butler, who will take Pepper to the kitchen.
[JLR note: Whoa, here. No, don't just walk west. Instead, use the musical
instrument, the armonica, to make a whiny noise that Lockjaw starts howling
along with, thus revealing his presence in the house. It does get the butler
to come in, too. You get points for playing the armonica, plus it's more
dramatic...]
Get the broom and the fan. Get the mitt on the left side of the fireplace. Use
the mitt on the iron near the cauldron. Use the iron on the dress. Get the
dress and then use the dress on Pepper. Pepper passes the butler and continues
up to the second floor of the house. Walk north to the hall maze.
[JLR note: before leaving the stairs area, you might want to click the truth
icon on the butler. No points, but it's one of the quiz questions, about
flea control. Not an obvious place to put the answer, eh? This factoid
inspired me to do a second pass through the game and use the fleas on the
butler when he tries to give Lockjaw a bath, for extra points. They mention
backscratchers in the truth icon message, but I never found a use for the
backscratcher in the game. I later noticed Mark Seibert's walkthrough shows
what was originally intended.]
North. North. East. North. West. Open the door. North. East. Open the door.
West. North. West. North. East. North. North. West. North. North. North. North.
West.
[JLR note: DON'T click the finger icon on the door first. Instead, click the
Look icon on it and then the talk icon and THEN the finger icon.]
Use the door to find Lockjaw.
[JLR note: along the way in the maze there are rooms with a woman dressing
(or undressing), what look like modern blowup toys for the beach, a purple cat,
Ima, complaining maids, and ELVIS! (Well, technically Elvisantro.) There may
be a bit of a naughty joke involving Elvis. If you look at the door before
opening it, you hear "Ooh baby baby! uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh. Oh yeah!" or
something of the sort. Any adult might wonder what is on the other side, but
let's keep our minds out of the gutter. It's just Elvis. Pepper doesn't want
to talk to him; she's not a fan. Another door leads outside, but with no steps
down... Most of these extras aren't on the main path. I just found them by
wandering lost. No extra points seem to be involved. This is a tough maze for
a kiddy game, isn't it?]
As Lockjaw, get the key and use it on the door. As Pepper, use the magnet on
the key to get it. Use the key on the door to open it. As Lockjaw, smell the
hall.
[JLR note: At least they give you a break on the way out. Lockjaw can sniff
out the right direction to go.]
Walk south. East. North. East. North. North. West. North. East. North. East.
North. West. North. North to exit the hall maze. Use the paw icon on the closet
to hide. Use the pot of blue dye to pour it over Ima. As Lockjaw, bite the
butler. As Pepper, use the charged Leyden jar on general Pugh. Open the doors
to let everyone in. Show the bag of money to Ben. Answer the quiz questions to
complete the game.
1: (a)
2: (c)
3: (b)
4: (d)
5: (c)
[JLR note: 564 points total. Who knows what the REAL total is...
If you hang on to the end of the credits, there's one last laugh as the red
coat guards show up in wigs for the "General's ball".
Hmmm, they rather leave Pepper and Lockjaw hanging at the mercy of Uncle Fred,
don't they? And I don't think any sequels ever got made? Maybe Pepper needs
to travel in time to the glory days of Sierra and solve their unfortunate
money problems... Give the kiddies a lesson in business and economics, but I
guess that might be considered more of a horror game.]

kite/
key experiment. This string is different from the cotton string given
to Pepper by Ben
in Act III and later given to young Ben.]

"Yuck!"
remarks.]
