The Curse of Monkey Island

[bloodline]

Ok, I'm stuck. I have got to the point where I can see the cross on the stage, but I can't get on to the stage because the thesbian is on there.

[mikeymike]

Have you got all the stuff out of the room before the stage (the props room)?  IIRC there's a few items you need to pick up in there.  You also need to find out how to mess with the lighting system (up the stairs in the props room) IIRC.

I can't really remember curse of monkey island, it wasn't that good IMO.  You'll have to try and jog my memory (or just read a walkthrough off the net).

[bloodline]

Ok, Once I got to this point I was totally stumped, so I had a look at the walkthrough on "Scummbar.com" and As far as I can see I've done everything right...

I just need to put the Chicken fat on the cannonballs... but I can't find any cannonballs :-(

[mikeymike]

What chicken fat on what cannonballs? :-?

The only place I can think of to get chicken fat is at the restaurant that sells mouldy chicken, but you get something else from there anyway.

Actually, the only joke/puzzle out of CoMI that was really class is getting the map off the guy on the beach.  I wet myself laughing at that, that was true Monkey Island class humour :-)

Yeah, that is funny

I have the chicken fat (you get that from LeChimps ship)... but I just can't find any balls to greece up.

[mikeymike]

I can't think of any either.  Try another walkthrough?

Wasn't these cannonballs in the travel case backstage?

oh, btw Murray, the evil demonic skull was my all time fav game character.

[mikeymike]

IIRC, there are three 'challenges' (a bit like in Monkey Isl. 1), the kaber toss, getting the map, and the banjo playing.  the banjo is easy enough and requires nothing except a good memory, but the kaber toss requires gunpowder.

Yeah, It seems that I had to do the button pushing thing twice before it worked... odd... anyway, I completed it, and it was jolly good fun. Not as hard as Monkey Island 2

Time to get Escape from mokey island now.

Tell me whether it's any good when you've completed it :-)

[Speelgoedmannetje]

hm, Monkey Island 4 (I thought that was escape from Monkey Island wasn't it?) is gathering dust somewhere in my attic after I moved. :-( The game wasn't as good as it's three predecessors.
ah, anyway bloodline :pint:

Nope, the banjo required gunpowder.
The kaber toss required rubber.

[mikeymike]

The banjo did not require gunpowder!  You've got something against banjos haven't you? :-)

The banjo is easy, you just point at the banjo when he says choose your weapon.

The kaber toss requires rubber and gunpowder.  gunpowder on the rubber tree.

[Speelgoedmannetje]

ssssshhh
I wasn't telling either that you need to choose the gun when the banjo guy freaks out? Now it's easy for him.

[mikeymike]

don't forget the bit that requires you to make up a sniper rifle out of the remains of the banjo man.
