Um... I'm pretty sure the iOS version has a preference setting to keep speech in classic mode... I'll check later.


This patch makes it so that you can play with Classic GFX plus Talkie via ScummVM.

My latest links in this post explain it all.

Yeah got it on both, it's a bit more fiddly on the iPhone with the smaller screen, but still very playable and enjoyable, it is MI after all :D

Just checked on my iPhone, can't see that option anywhere, all you appear to be able to change is the subtitles:

A MI2 project is underway, though it's not nearly as far advanced as this project.

If anyone wants to tweak the Amiga related sources, all the details are on page 8 here:

The best thing about the game is the price. So much better than Call of Duty Black Ops :)

Heck ya! I DO Love a good FPS, though more along the lines of Riddick or Half-Life 2, but Monkey Island made my stomach hurt for days when I first played through it!

I can confirm that the new Sound Track and Talkie bits are working in the Windows tweak of ScummVM found on page 8.

I'm playing it right now!!! ;)


They did a GREAT JOB on the production of this, and having the classic graphics I think is the better of the two options. Not that the new Graphics blow or anything, in fact they are awesome, but THIS is how I'm used to Monkey Island looking, quirky mouth movements and all. It only adds to the comical appeal, and as they say in the video I posted at the beginning of this, the early programmers crammed a LOT into such a limited color palette and in such a low resolution.

I gotta go write the author behind the Wii port now.

Come to think of it. This might be an chance to learn basic code editing and compiling...

Now what tools might I need to edit and compile code for MorphOS?
