Bug that makes the game stuck.
This is not a review for the game itself, that I like, but I thought that this version was free from the so annoying bug that occured at some point also in my original cd version years ago... Now I have to search someone else saved data to keep on playing :( If someone else encountered this bug in the past note that this version has it too!

Engaging story, but useless controls
Unfortunaltely this episode of the Monkey Island saga lets itself be ridiculed by the period of its inception. The Sony Playstation had been around for a little while, and the likes of Silent Hill and Resident Evil had been created, and the developers (or maybe the publishres, we'll never know) thought it would be a great idea to jump on the band wagon... Wonderful story aside, I played this game the day it came out, and I still own the original CD and box... It lives in the loft in a long forgotten box as this chapter of the Monkey Island universe failed misserabley with me... Only alowing keyboard or controller use (from 3 tprevious titles were point & click, or point and use keyboard shortcuts) was jarring... The direction of your charecter between camera angles followed your controller/keyboard, not the direction you were travelling... a complete joke. I played this recently and gave up before the finalle, as I couldnt be bothered with the moemorrisation of "Monket Kombat"... I play Monkey Island games instead of others for a reason... Now it's done I'm glad I'm finished, and also glad that the developers only considered this in the saga as they're (badly executed) foray into geting the MI(tm) franchise into the early console market... Mouse and keyboard for the win...

Not really a Monkey Island game
The best thing about "Escape from Monkey Island" is that we can just pretend it never happened.

Skip this one!
Escape from Monkey Island moved the series away from the classic point-and-click mechanics of the previous games in the series and it wasn't a move for the better! In following the trend at the time, they made the game less enjoyable and more difficult to control. The trademark characters, writing and humour are all there, but the gameplay is clunky and therefore this is my least favourite game of the series. If you're a die-hard Monkey Island fan, and can live with the problems, then you'll probably still enjoy this title.

No remake.
And there's a reason there's no remake and never will be. Because the game just isn't good. The puzzles are tedious and boring and... ugh... monkey combat... THE worst segment in any adventure game EVER. I don't need to go on so I won't. It's just not a good game even though the voice talents from Curse of Monkey Island make an appearance here. It falls short in so many ways.
