Home Alone traps

edited January 2009 in General Chat
I watched my favorite holiday comedy, Home Alone, and still enjoyed it since I was a kid. When I was 6, I used to draw out plans for bandit traps for fun. Imagine if you were a kid that is home alone, and bad guys are planning to break into your house, what traps would you make? Where would you put them? If you like, you can describe what happens to the bandits when they fall into your trap.

    Maybe a Home Alone-type scenario would make a good Telltale point and click adventure game? Maybe a big part of the game would be collecting items and then figuring out how to use them in a trap at your house. There could even be multiple ways to use items, multiple ways for the burglar invasion portion of the game to play out (depending on which traps you set), and multiple positive and negative outcomes.

    That's the sort of game I would play over again a few times, just to find all of the scenes and potential traps I missed.

    What, that dynamite NES game adaptation where you had to survive for 20 minutes wasn't good enough for you?!

    This one would take a lot of time to make, but it would be pretty neat:

    So there's two doors next to each other, right? I go in the door to the right and lock it, with someone, let's say my boss from work, on hot pursuit. My boss comes to a door and suspects that it's the door I've taken, because the other one is locked. Bossman opens the right door. There's another door in front of it. He opens that one and there's another door. This is repeated a couple lot of times, until he finally opened the last door, leading to nothing but a room full of slinkies and spilled milk. While my boss had been doing that, I'm in my car halfway to my own house. :D

    They walk to the house, step on a pad that launches hammers and screwdrivers above them!

    I would drop a bucket full of honey ontop of the burgler, and bees from a nearby nest will attack him!

    I love that film man, I wanted to watch it this holiday but I didn't see it on :( It made me want a Talk Boy though.

    As for my trap, one word: anvil.

    If I had a Komodo Dragon, I would drop a bucket full of water buffalo blood on the bad guy, and it will rip him into peices! (devilish laugh)
