This is the second Monkey Island game I ever played (Even though I barely remembered playing the first one at the time.) when I was younger and remembered waiting for each episode to come out and enjoying them quite a lot so I recently bought it on GOG now that I played and finished the first two games. While I still enjoyed it there were some problems I didn't notice the first time I played it. The game is still full of high quality humor, but it attempts to have a more emotionally charged story with actual stakes and character drama which comes off a bit jarring after playing the first two games which were primarily focused on the absurd comedy. Funnily enough I think the drama might work better if this is your first Monkey Island game. Gameplay is your classic point 'n' click puzzle solving with some unique little twists which I found fun for the most part. Had to look up a couple of solutions but that's standard affair for these games. Visuals are probably the weakest part of the game. A lot of reused character models, some low quality animations and a visual bug here and there. Still I found the general atmosphere great and the 3D look works well for this game. Big problems come in chapters 4 and 5 where there are game crashing bugs which require you to delete files in the installation folder to fix. While to me this was only a nuisance as the game autosaves often, it is defintely something that should be noted. Overall I still think there is enough Monkey Island here for the fans, and enough fun point 'n' click adventure for the rest.
