This game is great... except for explaining its button configuration: Use TAB for inventory, hold left mouse button for options, and F1 for menu. You're welcome.

My favourite Monkey Island, so much fun to play. Still visually stunning to this day and I would love it if they brought back this style in future Monkey Island's. Legendary Game Status for me.

Oct. 2024

This is my favourite Monkey Island game of all, mainly because it's the first one I ever played. I love it, it's witty, funny, the graphics hold up really well. It's a classic and it must be played at least once.

When talking about LucasArts games, this is the first game that comes to my mind (yeah, not even Star Wars). I played it when it was released and Ioved it! Exciting story, awesome humor, beautiful animation, great sound - a true classic! I'd wholeheartedly recommend this to any gamer, especially if you're into point&click adventure games. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3239622156 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3131968768

There are two games in the Monkey Island series that I regard as the best: the first is LeChuck's Revenge for nostalgia value, and then there's this one. It has it all: the humour, the well crafted puzzles, stunning graphics and memorable music. But above all, it has something that nothing past this entry in my opinion has: a satisfying payoff at the end of an engaging story. In hindsight, I would have been happier if the series had ended here, but that's just me.
