The Curse of Monkey Island

[mikeymike]

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

[mikeymike]

[Speelgoedmannetje]

Bah, I need to play Monkey Island 2 again.
And Monkey Island 1 too.

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.

Wasn't a keg of rum/grog up there that you have to turn into a bomb of some sort?

Time to get Escape from mokey island now.

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

MI4 is the worst of the series so far.  they got rid of the mouse point and click interface and made it where you control Guybrush with your arrow keys.  Not that it is bad or anything but I kept getting him stuck.

But that's what the gunpowder was for, making a trail from keg to tree.

It's been awhile since I have played this but I thought you had to use the knife on the leg of the support of the keg and when it fell it left a trail of rum/grog as it rested next to the rubber tree.  I may be wrong though. :-?

I could just go on rambling, pretending I know what I'm talking about, but I don't remember it that well :-)

[ottomobiehl]

Fair Enough. :-)

I think the best thing to do would be to sit down and replay it.

Wat was it again with that biscuit cutter?


-edit- AH! you had to saw the fundament under the keg o' rum and then it rolled and left a trail o' rum

Use the Biscuit cutter on the Rubber tree and make a plug for the boat.

Yes, it was the knife where the Grim Fandango figure (what's his name again) was stabbed with in the chicken restaurant.

The last of the excellent LucasArts adventures :-( :-)
