Summary

Game Description

Escape From Monkey Island by LucasArts for PC is a point-and-click adventure game that features an original cinematic story, highlighted by hundreds of puzzles amidst dozens of rendered backgrounds. Escape is the fourth chapter of the Monkey Island saga, and it finds Guybrush Threepwood and his new bride, Governor Elaine Marley-Threepwood, returning to Melee Island from their honeymoon. They discover Elaine has been declared dead, the Governor's mansion scheduled for demolition, and a slick politician, Charles L. Charles, gunning for her job. As Elaine scrambles to launch a re-election campaign, Guybrush is dispatched on a seemingly trivial legal errand that catapults him into a maelstrom of thievery, voodoo, and experimental prosthetic devices.

Monkey Island 4

Monkey Island 4 is a great game but It would have been better if it were a point and click game but it had a big area to exsplore

Escape From Monkey Island - PC

Look a 3-headed monkey!

Like the rest of the monkey island games, esape is a hilarious wacked out pirate adventure garaunteed to shiver your timbers. You'll laugh you peg leg off as you complete the game. Only when you do, chances are you'll bury it and never return. Games like this tend to lack replay value.
