Comment:

 I just mapped a partial disassembly of Maniac Mansion v1; it seems that in
 order to launch the demo it is sufficient to run script 9 instead of the
 bootscript (script 1).

 And I discovered... we were already (kind of) doing that!
 ...but only if the game is recognized as the demo version:

 (from `runBootscript()`)
 {{{
 if (_game.id == GID_MANIAC && (_game.features & GF_DEMO) &&
 (_game.platform != Common::kPlatformC64))
     runScript(9, 0, 0, args);
 }}}

 I think that maybe we could put a checkbox in the game options for it to
 run on demo/kiosk mode...
