      Thanks for reminding me - installed it not yet fired it up.

      Don't forget to ASK ME ABOUT LOOM

        So, tell me about LOOM.

          LOOM IS AMAZING also the same island as monkey island

          Installed, not fired up too

    • katejessica on 07/02/2023 - 12:16

      is this playstation gamepass? how does it work? do you just have access to the game whilst its available on there (like a game netflix of sorts)?

      • lechuck123 on 07/02/2023 - 12:44

        It's definitely on Xbox game pass which I think was what being referenced in the original comment.

        Not sure about PlayStation pass

    • jaymzrsa on 07/02/2023 - 12:47

      Legend, you just saved me $26.96! I was about to purchase.

    The Threepwood one isn't accurate. He should be more condescending, sarcastic sprinkled with anxiety (Elaine was the assertive one in the relationship).

      Thank god, otherwise we'll all be sitting at home on centrelink because AIs have taken over all our jobs.

    I dislike the artwork style of this, as compared to the originals (or remakes), but it plays OK.

    • FelixNZ on 07/02/2023 - 11:42

      yeah I'd even take the "tales of MI" look - otherwise it's a "modern" Monkey Island game, definitely not as esoteric and challenging as the older ones, even on "Hard" mode you can smash it out in a couple of afternoons. And it's a Pity Earl Bowen isn't back to voice leChuck (but the new actor does a passable job) otherwise the Original writers, and Dominic Armato are back so it still sounds, feels and has the humor of Monkey Island.

      I can appreciate them trying something new, but perfection for the MI series for me was already attained in curse of monkey island - and this is the hill i will die on.

        Curse is great but I still have major nostalgia for MI2 on my beautiful Amiga A1200 with hard disk (no disk swapping!). 🏴‍☠️

    • mackdiddy on 07/02/2023 - 12:00

      I got used to it honestly.

    • Hurg on 07/02/2023 - 14:01

      Someone pointed out that it looks like he has a dick hanging off his nose and now that's all I see :/

      agreed, I much preferred the artwork style of the originals too.

      • BadGiraffe on 07/02/2023 - 19:49

        Curse of Monkey Island is a masterpiece.

    • sidesw1pe on 07/02/2023 - 23:25

      Yeah I couldn't get over the art style. I was a huge fan, I played MI1 and 2 on my Amiga back in the day. I stopped playing this one after an hour or so. Maybe I'll go back one day.

    Great game, but it's been available for $25-$30 since release.

    • Grey 13 on 07/02/2023 - 15:50

      Lowest was $23.28.

    Via ChatGPT now as Murray:

    "Greetings, mortals! This is Murray, the demonic skull, here to share some exciting news. Steam is offering 25% off on "Return to Monkey Island", the legendary adventure game that'll have you traversing islands, deciphering puzzles, and laughing your way through a pirate's tale.

      That also doesn't work for Murray.

      Greetings friend. This is a new game, released only a few months ago, and starring yours truly.

    Write a brief ad in the style of someone who hates videogames for 25% off Return to Monkey Island on Steam

    "Ugh, videogames. Who needs them, right? Well, apparently some people do, because there's 25% off Return to Monkey Island on Steam. Look, if you must waste your time with these so-called 'games,' then at least get a discount. Save yourself a few bucks on this 'pirate adventure' or whatever it is. But seriously, go outside, read a book, do something productive for once."

    I don't know what I expected, but I feel personally attacked now.

    For OzB I believe the most appropriate MI quote should be, "Never pay more than 20 bucks for a computer game."

    Just started this on switch. It’s ok so far, but I’m hoping it gets better

    • twig on 07/02/2023 - 20:17

      It does. Haven't finished yet but the theme park was the worst part so far.

        Ok I’ll have to push through then. Just doesn’t have that nostalgic hit like the originals

        • alamodey on 07/02/2023 - 23:03

          yeah no deal

            @alamodey: i know, why would anyone pay near full price for a 20 year old game
