Pretty good adventure for anyone
I've played all the games in the series and I can say that it is a great experience in its latest entry of the series. The puzzles are fairly logical for the adventure genre, albeit some taking a few trials or minutes to think about. The music is great as expected and you will get used to the graphics style. The trivia feature is a nice addition, and for newcomers the game offers a good overview of all the previous titles. You can tell that specifically The Secret of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge received the most details and love regarding the summarized story and that Tales of Monkey Island had the least interesting story to provide (as it's been the lowest quality entry of the whole series). Ron Gilbert found a good connection between MI2:LR and RtMI, which was something I specifically looked forward to. So far, so positive. While it's a solid experience with some great scenes here and there, once I reached the end I felt some disappointment. That is, until I realized that the ending had something special to it. If you know the origins of the game, you may see it as well. It still felt too anticlimactic, which is why I take one star away from the score. I'm uncertain if the development was rushed at the end like Escape from Monkey Island, or if all the other ideas didn't work. What I feel very confident about, is that this is the last entry in the series. It won't get better. I still hope for new IPs / stories under Lucasfilm Games, that unleash a portion of the magic, that the original games had.
