I’m not really a fan of 3D when it comes to adventure games. I disliked the fact that they “remake” the character models. I doubted when I read it would be Telltale Games and not LucasArts who developed the game. When I first saw the screenshots on Tales of Monkey Island a few weeks ago, I frowned. Tales of Monkey Island Graphics and Gameplay I wish the in-game hint system can smartly detect which puzzles are considered “Hard” and give a more proper hint here. It was entirely my fault for underestimating an interactable environment, thinking that it has nothing to do with solving the puzzles in game. Only once did I need to look at the walkthrough because I was stuck for quite some time to the moment of frustrations. The puzzles in the first episode are varied from easy to hard to solve puzzles. The Voodoo Lady is back! "Huh? Who is she?" If you have, however, you’ll be “LOL”ing by yourself in your own room while playing Tales of Monkey Island – Launch of the Screaming Narwhal (so make sure you shut your door if you are not living by yourself!). Although you don’t need to play the previous games to be able to understand the story and the characters, you’ll find some dry and “Huh?” jokes if you haven’t played the series before (For example, you’d probably say “Huh? What’s with the post title, Mike?” if you haven’t played the series before). Lots of characters from the previous games are making a come back. The first episode introduces the characters and the story quite well. The five-episode Tales of Monkey Island sells for $34.95 but there is also another surprise! After the monthly releases are complete, you will have the opportunity to get a Collector’s DVD containing all five game episodes and bonus contents for just the cost of shipping (assuming you have been loyal in purchasing the monthly episodes)! If you own all of the Monkey Island series (back in 1990s), this Tales of Monkey Island Collector’s edition is something that you should not miss to be added to your collection! If you are a fan of the series and can’t wait for the whole chapters to be released, you can grab your copy of episode 1 now and the rest later. Tales of Monkey Island is divided into 5 chapters and released periodically every month. Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 1 – Launch of the Screaming Narwhal Tales of Monkey Island will also be released for Nintendo Wii, more details are not available yet except that there will be no major differences between the PC and the Wii versions of the game.
