+At one point in the game, you come across a computer that allows you
+to play the original Maniac Mansion as an easter egg. ScummVM supports
+this, with a few caveats:
+
+ScummVM will scan your configuration file for a game that's in a
+'Maniac' sub-folder of your Day of the Tentacle folder. If you've
+copied the data files from the CD version, this should already be the
+case but you have to add the game to ScummVM as well.
+
+To return to Day of the Tentacle, press F5 and select "Return to
+Launcher".
+
+This means that you could in theory use any game as the easter egg.
+Indeed, there is a "secret" configuration setting, "easter_egg", to
+override the ID of the game to run. Be aware, though, that not all
+games support returning to the launcher, and setting it up to use Day
+of the Tentacle itself as the easter egg game is not recommended.
