Is it possible that someone does not know Monkey Island?,

This review is from: LucasArts Archive Series: The Monkey Island Archives (CD-ROM)
It is strongly improbable that some adventure games fan would not like Monkey Island series. Even the very first game of this package - Secret of Monkey Island - still exceeds lots of contemporary games although it has been created in 80's of the last century.What makes Monkey Island so perfect and unforgetable? It definitely is a great balance of storyline, graphics, music, humor and playability. You will play these games again and again, just to recall an uncountable number of comic scenes, memorable quotes and original ideas, just to see the main hero Guybrush Threepwood, ghost/zobmie pirate LeChuck, beautiful governor Elaine Marley and other characters in action. It is simply a masterpiece of LucasArts and I am not afraid to say that Sercet of Monkey Island established a new standard in adventure games world. Moreover, you will get three excellent games at one excellent price. I strongly recommend Monkey Island series!

What more could you want???!!,

This review is from: LucasArts Archive Series: The Monkey Island Archives (CD-ROM)
I used to play the monkey island 2 (LeChuck's Revenge) back in early 90s and I really enjoyed it - then, I found out that there was 3rd MI game! I bought it right away and I couldn't have been happier. It was funny, the graphic was fun to look at and the puzzles were well written except for a few of them - then the 4th MI came out in 3D last year and I loved it, too. It was same monkey island with 3D graphic - they also changed the control method from mouse to keyboard which is a little annoying at first but not bad indeed. Anyway, I really wanted to go back to the beginning of it all and experience the whole thing. Until I found out about this archive series, I was faced with too over priced games in floppy. I was so very happy to find out that Lucasarts had published the MI archive. for this price, it's well worth it even if you already have the curse of MI. You can see how Guybrush has changed from the beggining to the end. The graphic isn't that much to look, at but considering how old they are, it's very good. Non-linear puzzles make it less frustrating when you are stuck at one spot and even when you are having a little problem, Guybrush always manages to give you a little hint. Highly recommended!

A Kid's Review
This review is from: LucasArts Archive Series: The Monkey Island Archives (CD-ROM)
These games take you into the world of Guybrush Threepwood, a young man who struggles in his quest to be a pirate, and meets friends and enemies along the way. I bought the games in seperate packs, before I knew about this. An incredible change, putting some of the best adventure games the world will ever see, together, in a pack. Guybrush is sure to make everyone laugh, on his never ending fight against the evil, disgusting, Ghost-Zombie Pirate LeChuck.When you play these great games by the great company, LucasArts, you will have the time of your life. I had a little trouble in these games, but when you're stuck, someone standing around will help you along the way. One thing's for sure, these are adventure games that you'll never forget, and hopefully, they'll inspire you to buy other games from the company, LucasArts Entertainment. This is a must-have for all adventure gamers.
