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!

The golden age of PC Point and Clicks

There was a time when point and clicks were in their prime. Back then the Monkey Island series was amongst the very best,it was a titan. When I was 10 years old I have discovered the series with The Secret of Monkey Island,it was in 1996. I loved the hell out of that game and when Curse of Monkey Island came out,I was blown away by the visuals. It looked straight out of a cartoon. If you are looking for a point of click adventure game that does not take itself seriously,that offers simple yet still complex puzzles and with a humor that is unique to the 90's,this game is for you.

Top 5

I've been waiting for this game to show up on GOG since pretty much the beginning of GOG. The soundtrack, the voice acting, the animation, everything about this game is endearing and a blast to play.

No need to Remaster - Pure Perfection!

From the opening theme music as the intro rolls in... I was hooked. Honestly, the best of the series. The best tone. The best style. The most wonderful gags, lines, tests of wit AND two levels of challenge that I thoroughly enjoyed. I still hum, 'A pirate I was meant to be'... and my girlfriend loves it so much she's buying it again, despite the fact I own the original release on CD. If you have ever enjoyed an adventure game, this is my personal pick of THE ultimate adventure game. Use it. Stare at it. Combine it with your face and wear it like a highly-sophisticated-beard-weave made from the chest and back hairs of real pirates. Hope it will take root if you don't wash it for a while... It took root for me... and after all this time, I find myself playing it again. Truly the greatest of the series and, if they ever re-master the future installments into this same beautiful animation style, I will happily repurchase those. For me, the 3D graphics that came after this really killed the series... it lost it's charm and soul. Grab your nearest demon skull to have a great time and fight like a cow!
