The Curse of Monkey Island™
Description
I've sailed the seas from Trinidad to Tortuga and I've never seen anything like it! The engagement ring I gave Elaine has a terrible pirate curse on it. LeChuck is behind it, I'm sure. I should have known that nothing good could come out of that evil zombie's treaures. And if that's not bad enough,...

Description
I've sailed the seas from Trinidad to Tortuga and I've never seen anything like it! The engagement ring I gave Elaine has a terrible pirate curse on it. LeChuck is behind it, I'm sure. I should have known that nothing good could come out of that evil zombie's treaures. And if that's not bad enough, the clairvoyant I met in the mangrove swamp told me that if I am to break the curse and save Elaine, I will have to die!

Excerpted from "The Memoirs of Guybrush Threepwood: The Monkey Island Years"

Point-and-click masterpiece

The best entry in the series where there are no bad games.

Great sequel

Great third part of the Monkey Island series. The graphical style has changed a little bit, but the game keeps being fun and playable. Moreover, it runs well in Linux with the Wine emulator.

Elegant abstract art

I'm new to the series (because the game has my language patch online), and I was amazed by the game's unique approach. "This is definitely a big budget click and unlock adventure game!" Excellent 2D scenes and character action, lots of funny dialogue and full voice acting, which is rare even now. However, it is a pity that I may not have a deep understanding of European and American culture, so 90% of the decryption is very abstract and impossible to start, and there is no modern very convenient "item highlighting", so that the key elements are often missed. So much so that I followed the text guide throughout the game. : ( And it's not like , where most of the decryption goes, "Oh, that's how it should be," but "How can it be? Is it reasonable to think it through?" .
