Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition Review

So i started playing the new Monkey Island Special Edition and was shocked by what i was playing

i was new to point and click gaming because the last game i played with point and click was putt putt saves the zoo and now i got Monkey Island 1 and 2 and love both of them

but today i am talking about Secret of Monkey Island.

so the gameplay is as simple as pointing at things and clicking on them (see what i did there). the Special edition added a hint feature and i will thank the gods for the hints because the game is very tight lip about what you got to do next.

at one point you need to go to go under monkey island and find the ghost pirate ship but it's not that easy, first you need to open the gate but you need a monkey to hold the level down so that you can go into the entry point of the earth but you need the key to open the mouth of a giant monkey hat is in the way but only the cannibals have the key but they don't have the key any more because they gave it to a other pirate but the pirate will not give you the keys till you get back his banana picker from the cannibals and then AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRR

the puzzles are madness in game form


THE STORY
now the Story is quite old when you think about it

a whip of a man guybrush threepwood want's to become a pirate but must go though the 3 trials to become one

but that story then disappears when you finish all three tests and you hear the the ghost pirate lechuck has taken the governor to force her to marry him

but what makes this story more fun and clever is the comedy that went into it's writing.

i have never laughed harder at a game.

you will meet great characters and hear many a joke along your way to finding the governor and fighting Lechuck

Verdict

This Game is worth your time if you like your stories to have a good sense of humour and a light hearted journey but pure evil puzzles then go and get this game

it is alot of fun
