Time to get Escape from mokey island now.
Tell me whether it's any good when you've completed it :-)
Ok, I completed Escape from Monkey Island on Saturday. it sucks.
The Control interface is fine for a console gamer, but is clunky and akward for an RPG junkie.
The graphics are quite good. The sound and music is well done.
The story is bearable, though lacks the humour of the first three, and the puzzles are well thought out.
There are certain "Tasks" (The diving competition, Monkey Kombat) that are just plain boring... though I did enjoy the Mists of Thyme Swamp, that was fun.
Monkey Kombat was the most pointless, stupid and frankly sorry excuse for a "puzzle" in the history of computer games ever. I had to resort to building a "movement" table and a dominant move tree to complete it.
The Ending was a let down... Someone please get Ron Gilbert back on board again...
