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.

Fourth in the legendary Monkey Island series of graphic adventures!
An original, cinematic story full of drama, sociopathic parrots, and a villain with a sinister agenda!
Dozens of lusciously rendered backgrounds!
Hundreds of puzzles to challenge both novice and veteran pirates... er, adventurers!
New jokes! New puns! New insults! And more monkeys than the three previous Monkey games combined!
YES! I DO like CIM. But making Monkey Island into a Grim F. now with mini-games - was a new low/nail in something dying!
Sry' Lucasarts You died a few years before "Tes' one'! Me wonder lads" :-(
In my opinion the best game of the series was MI2, 1 and 3 was ok, and 4 is not bad. Back in the day it was widely criticized by the PC gaming community because of the art-style and keyboard controls. I guess the game was made that way because it was also released on PS2 and had to cater to the tastes of the console gamers. Personally I don't like the controls of the PC version, but they didn't ruin the experience for me. Believe me it's not a bad game and in my opinion every genre fan should try playing it. By the way, you can find the demo on the internet and try it before buying the game.
Despite this 3D that is nowadays a little painful, the spirit of the Monkey island game is here.
Pity that the Monkey Kombat completely spoil the game. It is not only a stupid thing but it is long, painful and absolutely not funny. What the hell did the developpers thought about ?
I will never play this game again.
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
