way better than popular opinion has it
I really enjoyed this game. Everything apart from the controls has the hallmarks of a great MI game.

Escape from Monkey Island™
Description
Spitting the sand of Monkey Island from my mouth, I wondered if the life of a mighty pirate was all it was cracked up to be. I'd ignored recent events that should have been warning shots across the bow of my soul, from my wife's brush with death to the anti-pirate ramblings of an Australian gazillionaire. If only I'd chosen a different path, LeChuck might still be dead and the Ultimate Insult might have remained a mystery. If I'd never picked up a sword, the grog-swilling pirates of the Tri-Island Area might be unthreatened by the forces of gentrification and demonic heckfire. If only... suddenly, the hairy finger of a familiar monkey tapped me on the shoulder. It was time. Time for the biggest battle of my swashbuckling life.

A superb adventure game
This is probably the worst Monkey Island adventure game - I really can't decide between this one and the one Telltale Games made - but it's still such a great adventure game. I had loads of fun with when Escape from Monkey Island was originally released, and I am finally going to have a great time with it again thanks to GOG. The only really sad part about this game is that now, many years later, it looks much worse than the Curse of Monkey Island, which was released three years before the Escape. Otherwise, it's still more or less pretty-looking and sounds amazing even now in 2018.

The worst in the series
I really wanted to give this game another shot but I just can't stand it: Really ugly graphics, even for the time, annoying controls, sub-par humour (especially compared to the earlier ones) and a narrative that just annoyed me. Even the puzzles feel off in so many ways. I can only recommend this if you are a hardcore fan. If not, skip this game and head straight to Tales of Monkey Island instead.
