Return to Monkey Island is an unexpected, thrilling return of series creator Ron Gilbert that continues the story of the legendary adventure games.
Was $35.95 so at $25.16 about the cheapest I've seen it on steam.

Fate of Atlantis is one of my favourite games of all times (I’ve got it on my Nintendo DS although I wish I could play it on the switch or something).
There was a group called ‘Amberfish arts’ who were made up of fans that tried to create a fanmade version, this was about 25 years ago though and i don’t think it got anywhere (though the sample artwork they provided looked quite good at the time).
FYI (it’s a very old website).

Given it’s a SCUMM game, playing it on a modern pc or even android/iOS should be straight forward as getting the SCUMM interpreter?
Ah IOS? I didn’t realise I could play it on my iPhone! If so, I would be playing it straight away. The nolstalgia…
The art style dummyspit was the most 'gamer' thing possible. The supposed fans have been wetly sobbing for Ron to make 'the game he wished he got to make' for like a decade. And then he does, with the art style he wanted, and everyones like 'Oh not like that. We wanted you to make the game weeee wanted'. Were I him I'd have cancelled it and deleted the files.
Not sure what you're trying to say. He made the game for himself? BS, it was to make money. He took a chance with the art style, gamers didn't like it and it was too late to change it.
"I'd have cancelled it and deleted the files". Do you live in some make believe world where the concept of money doesn't exist?
He created the series, he wanted to continue it?
The majority of gamers (myself included) couldn't care about the art style.
There's always a toxic minority that whinge about everything, and in the case of the game's art style, it was unjustified. They should have been glad they were even getting another monkey island game
Better to grab Game Pass for a month :)
I enjoyed the game and new art style however it's definitely finishable in a month
Game Pass games are harder to get going on the Steam Deck 😔
Art style is fine
Not as hard as the older games
Ending is dumbIs this game any good?
yeah fair play to Ron the puzzles/story are decent even despite the art style
Do you still want to be a pirate, Guybrush Threepwood?
Look behind you, a Three-Headed Monkey!
Getting the bundle makes it cheaper for me since I already have the rest of the games. Comes to $22.64.
Ask me about Loom
I'm Bobbin Threadbare, are you my mother?
You make me think somebody already did
Hi! I'm Herman Toothrot! Don't bother to say hello.
You fight like a cow!
A pirate I was meant to be!
Trim the sails and roam the sea!A great little nostalgia trip but feels too short as a stand alone game and the puzzles are not challenging enough - this is reflected in the price I suppose.
It carries all of the feel of the series and is a great intro for this style of game for newer gamers. The Art style is good? What do people want - surely not an exact copy of the basic graphics from the original….well maybe the beautifully rendered art scenes of close ups etc…they were cool.
A must have for fans of the series. Outside of that worth a go at $25.
I know it’s contentious with fans of the OG one.
But I enjoy the new art style…
I do remember playing the original back in dos, but it’s still a monkey island game.
Hell, I’d be happy if they updated Indiana Jones and the fate of Atlantis as another Lucas arts classic.
