 The Curse of Monkey Island: PIB PC Game Review
As is traditional with the Monkey Island games, this is relatively light-weight adventure game with plenty of humour.
Sometimes silly things help though I think that this game could use a few more pointer to puzzle solutions when you are in normal mode.
Monkey Island 1 is "Don't pay more than $20 for a computer game." Well, this game does cost a bit more than that in the stores at the moment, but it is worth having for the entertainment value.

 IGN Boards - Monkey Island 5....?
The Monkey Island series is based around the original storylines of The Secret Of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge written and designed by Ron Gilbert.
the monkey island 5 thing was a hoax done by some monkey island fan website, no matter how official it looks, it was or is a hoax.
The other thing to keep in mind is that the developer is no longer existant, so beware that any problems that your machine may have with the game, or bugs in the game itself, will not be 'officially' patched.

 Review: Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
He only has a few things standing in his way--namely he's stuck on a strange island run by pirates, has no boat, no map to the treasure, and recently lost all of his material possessions to LeChuck's former right-hand man, Largo LaGrande.
The four pieces of map are distributed on three islands: Scabb Island, the one you started on, Booty Island (which happens to be run by none other then Elaine), and the oppressive dictatorship of Phatt Island.
Funny thing is, Ron said in that same 1991 interview that they had to cut out six or eight scenes to fit the game in floppy format (that's probably why the story had such an odd pacing).

It was built of fl stone and loomed menacingly from the outer rim of the crater of Monkey Island's recently woken volcano.
It was some time since Guybrush had last traveled through the earth beneath the Giant Monkey Head, but he could still remember the spinal staircase of the Monkey, the rivers of lava, the hellish faces carved in the rock, the purple mushrooms.

 UHS: Escape from Monkey Island Review
As you may remember, previous Monkey Island games have had "swordfighting" sequences where you won by collecting insults and responses to use against your opponents.
The problem with Monkey Kombat is that you have to do a lot of fighting to learn the moves you need from your opponents, and to make things worse, the combinations change randomly from game to game.
It's not the best Monkey Island, and it's probably not the best way to start the series -- especially since Curse of Monkey Island (the third title) is still available as a discount title.

 Grumpy Gamer
Some people believe the inspiration for Monkey Island came from the Pirates of the Caribbean ride - probably because I said it several times during interviews - but that was really just for the ambiance.
In gilbert's example, monkey island may be competitvely "dumbed down", but it's much more sophisticated in terms of interactive narrative then you're average game.
Now what i don't understand is that if a person, or company or whatever has a strong working formula like they had with Guybrush and the world of monkey Island, with it's colourful hand painted background, insane animation (more refering to the third game) and the funnist gags....

 Escape from Monkey Island Walkthrough
You can also use the walkthrough to tell you where to go next although I avoid doing that because it spoils the fun of what little exploring there is. You do not have to do everything in the order presented here but I think this is the most efficient sequence.
Monkey Island, on the other hand, is all about talking to characters with very little exploring.
Use bananas to entice the monkey into the mine and through the vent in the steel door so you can trap the monkey inside (open it first and then close it silly).

The pirates on Monkey Island aren't like real pirates, who were slimy and vicious, the terrorists of the 17th century.

The only other thing Guybrush managed to learn was that Tony was using a cactus in the front garden to calibrate the catapult.
Guybrush Threepwood, Master Swordsman, paused at the entrance to Ozzie's mansion.  Lucre Island seemed to hate this man--the area around his home looked dry and desertlike, with cactus-like plants even though a fountain continuously spat water out of a Venus Fly-trap-mouth.  The one spot of beauty was a tiny flower--and it looked out of place.
