E.T. Easter Egg - Programmer's Initials
Collect 7 Reece's Pieces and give them to Elliot (In order to do this, you may have to first collect 9 pieces, call Elliot, and quickly eat 2 pieces before he reaches you). Collect the three phone pieces on your own. Before calling home, look for a wilted flower in one of the wells. Stand in front of it and "heal" it by using your neck-stretching power. The flower will turn into a Yar [from Yar's Revenge, HSW's first Atari game] and fly away. Complete the round. Do the same thing next round (7 pieces to Elliot; heal the flower). This time, the flower turns into Indiana Jones [HSW's second Atari game]. Complete the round once again. On the third time through, nothing will appear when you heal the flower. However, when you complete the round, the initials "HSW3" will appear at the house. HSW stands for Howard Scott Warshaw, the game's programmer. He included Easter Eggs in all three of his games: Yar's Revenge (HSWWSH), Raiders of the Lost Ark (HSW2, and a Yar), and finally E.T. (HSW3, a Yar, and Indy).
