A fun and enjoyable return of a classic series. Yargh! ( PC )
As a fan of the long running series, I was a bit worried when I first saw this game when they announced it. The graphics seemed not nearly as good as past games such as The Curse of Monkey Island. As soon as I played the game for the first ...

Guybrush Threepwood Sails Again! ( PC )
Tales of Monkey Island: The Launch of the Screaming Narwhal is a Monkey Island game, or, at least, the first part of one. It looks like a Monkey Island game, it sounds like a Monkey Island game, it feels like a Monkey Island game, and it plays like a Monkey ...

Sheepwood? It's Threepwood! ( PC )
I'm sure I haven't mentioned this to the people at Giantbomb; I am a gigantic Monkey Island fan. I first played Monkey Island at the tender age of 8 in 1990. Although I was young, I instantly fell in love with the atmosphere, story, humor, and characters. Sure, I may ...

All Washed Up ( PC )

"My Name Guybrush Threepwood and I'm a Mighty Pirate (tm)" ( PC )
New logo for a new series If there was one game I regret not playing until now, its probably the first in the Monkey Island games from Lucasarts. These classic adventures are held among many as an example of a time when gameplay was more important than graphics. So it ...

Like the quiche of destiny, it girds the loins. ( PC )
If looking at the title of this review you are a little flummoxed but inexplicably aroused, Monkey Island is the game for you. Forgo this review and buy it if you tingle.  For the rest of you, less disturbed individuals I shall endeavour to moisten the thumb of destiny as ...

A Great Relaunch of the Franchise ( PC )
The original Secret of Monkey Island series is a worthy set of games to make a follow up to. Ever since the original release of the series in 1990, people have fallen in love with Guybrush Threepwood and his nemesis LeChuck. The previous Monkey Island games have gotten so much ...
