You may like to try the maniac mansion episodes (free) someday found on this site, quite a lot of them actually. These are the english translated ones but there are others in other languages and that are yet to be translated. You can run winsetup and switch them to english. https://www.maniac-mansion-mania.com/index.php/en/international.html
You can get the Maniac Mansion official version with enhanced graphics (1989 dos port) (and also has the original graphics) from steam. There is another unofficial port called Maniac Mansion Deluxe that is easy to find in that link also for those who cant get the official one due to region restrictions. This is the fan-made VGA makeover that was released in 2004. It also removes some dead-ends that plagued the original game and adds a lot of observational dialog. (As the original game had a “Read” verb instead of “Look at”, there was unfortunately barely any incidental dialog.). So probably good to try that someday even if you do have the official one. The 256-color treatment is good and tastefully done, but again the 1989 enhanced version on steam/gog I see is the last version of Maniac Mansion officially produced so far and the one official one to buy if interested.

"Meteor Mess is a remake of the graphic adventure Maniac Mansion that was originally published in 1987 by Lucasfilm Games. It's a fan project and a homage to a game that has a special place in our lives.
Plot:
Dr. Fred has kidnapped Sandy under the influence of a purple evil meteor. It's up to her boyfriend Dave to rescue her with the help of two of his friends.
Break into the old mansion, fight tentacles, hide from the strange Edison family, get access to Dr. Fred's secret lab and save Sandy.
This version contains voice-overs, new rooms, objects and puzzles and even a complete new way to solve the game.
If you have any troubles with the game or just want to get in contact with us, please meet us on Discord:
Discord - Meteor Mess Channel
Note:
Razor's voice-over is not quite finished yet. But the most important parts are included and the rest will be delivered via update as soon as possible."
