The Secret of Monkey Island™: Special Edition

The Best of Comedy & Story.

This is a must have for all who appreciate classic titles. If you are looking for a game in which the story drives the game this is it. You play as a comical want-a-bee pirate as he tries to get the respect of other pirates and establish himself. The controls are easy to understand, but the puzzles it gives you will have you dying to find a walk-thru. Don't give into the temptation. All of the puzzles are solvable with a little perseverance and you will feel so much better when you take the extra 15 minutes to do it yourself. When playing this just remember the golden rule of adventure games: Try to use everything ON everything! Even when it doesn't make sense it will eventually work (often as part of a comical gag). It is also great to give to the under 10 crowd to teach them problem solving skills. Something that modern games rarely do as guides are plentiful or they only require twitch skills.
