Played this as a small kid, just clicking random stuff till it worked. I just had to play the game again as an adult as intended :)

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.

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
