In my personal opinion, The Curse of Monkey Island is still the best game in the series—but this one comes very close. It has all the charm and humor the series is famous for, along with good puzzles and decent controls (especially when compared to the horrible fourth title, Escape from Monkey Island). The puzzles themselves are fair and well-designed. I only had to check a walkthrough twice, and you can definitely finish the entire game without one. Even though I still prefer full mouse control in my point-and-click games—and that’s not the case here, since you have to move the character with the keyboard—it’s still acceptable and doesn’t ruin the gameplay at all. Overall, it’s a great entry in the series, and I can’t wait to start the next title.

Well, what can I say: It's Monkey Island at its core and it was really fun. The story is ridiculous and the humor feels natural. The voice acting is well done and I actually enjoyed having this whole thing split up into 5 small parts. My favorites being episodes 2 and 3. Episode 1 is a really slow start and while 4 was still great, it felt a bit more "serious" than the rest of the game. Part 5 is way too much back and forth for my taste, that was kinda tedious. Navigating Guybrush is okayish in this game. There are sections where it is really annoying, but not half as bad as in Escape. Still, with some things being on a timer here and there, it can get frustrating. Overall, great experience!

This is a review for all five chapters of the game Tales of Monkey Island, which is a 3D point & click adventure in the very long Monkey Island series (Secret of Monkey Island was the first PC game that I ever played, 35 years ago). The voice acting, the 3D graphics, the visual and spoken humour, and the sheer imagination of the developers, are all superb and very enjoyable. I quickly found myself back in the familiar and happy/silly/pirate-y waters of the Caribbean with Guybrush, Elaine, LeChuck, and others. But I have some reservations about the plot and associated puzzles. For the first couple of chapters I managed to work out nearly all of the puzzles myself, but in later chapters, as the puzzles became more involved but less intuitive (in my view), I increasingly struggled to progress without the use of a guide. One other frustration was the amount of tedious walking/running in the 3D world e.g. around the towns, around the woods, and - especially - around the underworld in the final chapter to move between portals/rips; better map shortcuts would have been very welcome. My play time across the five chapters was more than 23 hours for a total cost of UK £2.27, so, even allowing for the delays caused by the more obscure puzzles etc, I have no complaints about value for money. In summary, I had a very good time with the game, though some parts of its plot, puzzles and movement mechanics could have been tightened and improved. Farewell (until next time), Mighty Pirate!

I finally got around to playing this game, and it’s a solid start to the series. While the graphics can feel a bit generic at times with repetitive character models the overall setting is well crafted and visually appealing. The new characters introduced here are entertaining, with plenty of funny lines, and the dialogue is strong throughout. The story is set up nicely, laying a good foundation for what’s to come. I’m genuinely excited to continue with the next four parts. If they maintain the same level of quality, this is going to be a great experience.

If you like fun with Guybrush, Elaine, and LeChuck, you'll like this. I think I've played all the Monkey Island games and have enjoyed them all - Tales of Monkey Island no exception. Seems like I got this on sale, making it all the sweeter, but honestly, I stumbled across this in a purely fortuitous chance encounter... in other words, I was thrilled to see a new Monkey Island, and would've purchased it whether on sale or not. Now... as to the original games, you certainly don't need to play them (I recommend the remasters), before you play this, but the throwbacks and characters back stories definitely would make playing it more enjoyable. Besides, you can never get enough monkeys! Have fun!
