I completed the game and wrote the walkthrough right away, plus all the other content normally included in my files. So this document will not be updated anymore. ___ ___ ____________________________________________________________________ | 1 | 3 | PREPARATIONS | ��� ��� �������������������������������������������������������������������� ACHIEVEMENTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Achievements you can get during the game are mentioned in the walkthrough. If you don�t use hints and follow the walkthrough to the letter, you�ll have almost all Achievements. There are a couple of them you need to spend some time on, so you won�t make it within three hours and fail at getting the Human Cannonball Achievement. Play the game for a second time and finish within three hours, doing only the absolute minimum to defeat Carla and escape from the cannibal hut. Also don�t destroy your ship, the Sea Monkey, that time. This will make Herman stay behind instead of your crew, earning you the Marooned Everyone Achievement. The game is slightly different at the end by doing this, but the basics remain the same. For the Old School Achievement you can press the Back button anywhere during the game. CONVERSATIONS AND BACKGROUND INFORMATION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Only the conversations you have to do to make progress or can not avoid will be mentioned in this walkthrough. It is possible to just talk to the characters you run into, which will give you more background information on the story and what you're trying to do. Do take into account that having these conversations will cost additional time to complete the game, so don't initiate them if you're trying to get the Human Cannonball Achievement. +---+------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 2 | G A M E | +---+------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ___ ___ ____________________________________________________________________ | 2 | 1 | REVIEW | ��� ��� �������������������������������������������������������������������� A review for this game written by me can be found at http://docs.google.com/View?id=dgfpr86r_475hqhtzcf6. ___ ___ ____________________________________________________________________ | 2 | 2 | STORY | ��� ��� �������������������������������������������������������������������� Guybrush Threepwood wants to be a pirate.

Walk to the right for a while by confirming you want to move to the cursor's location with the A button. A bit ahead is the Scumm Bar, open the door by pressing the B button when highlighted with the cursor and then press A to go inside. You have to go to the area in the back, so tell the game you want to go to the curtain all the way to the right and the screen will move by itself eventually. You can talk to the important pirates if you want, they will tell you what you need to do to become a pirate. Just wait here until the door over to the right opens. The cook will come out and walk out of the screen on the left, after which you walk through the door. Pick up the Hunk of Meat when in the kitchen. You can do this by pressing LT and selecting Pick Up. This will cause you to not use the Walk To command and enable you to use the Pick Up command once. After picking up the meat, do the same thing with the Pot, it's beneath the counter. Open the door on the right side of the room, a seagull will start to eat the fish. Walk past them and stand on the very end of the pier, on the lowest board. This will throw the seagull up a bit, but it will fly back right away. Do this twice more, the last time you do it the seagull will take enough distance for you to be able to quickly pick up the fish. You can do this by just highlighting the fish and pressing B. Leave the kitchen through the door you used to come in, you'll then see a cut scene with ghost pirate LeChuck. When outside, walk back to the left and towards the back of the screen, towards the mountain you descended earlier. Walk underneath the arch and you'll get to see the map of the island. In the middle of it the Clearing is indicated with a red dot, you need to go there. Walk a bit to the left when you're there and then enter the large circus tent. You need to listen to the discussion between the circus people for a while, but you're eventually able to interupt them. Just do a little cough and they'll end up right next to you, after some talking you will agree to let them shoot you out of a cannon. Tell them you already have a helmet, when you get back control you have to press RT to open your inventory. Use the left or right analog stick to determine the item you want to select, while the directional buttons can be used to determine what you want to do with that item. Eight directions are possible and Give is up and to the left. You can also see all of the commands when you use LT, like you did with the meat earlier. If you select a command for which you need an item for your inventory, you can do that right away. Give the pot to the Fettuccini brothers and you'll be shot out of the cannon, after which you can choose the text at the top to ask where your helmet is. You won't get to see it, but when standing outside again after that you'll be in the possession of 478 Pieces of Eight, gotten as payment. Walk all the way to the right until you end up on the map of the island again and return to your previous location, the collection of dots on the outer left marked as Village. Again, walk to the right again, past the Scumm Bar and through the arch at the end to get to the village. Enter the door below the large face, on the right side of the street. In this room you can talk to the lady for some background information, but all you really need to do here is pick up the Chicken from the bottom right of the screen. Then leave the room and walk out of the screen in the back, below the clock. Continue to the left through the town, just before the exit on the left you can see the prison in the top left of the screen. Enter and talk to the prisoner, then walk outside again. Return to the right part of the town and enter the building to the right of the church, which is a shop. On the shelves in the back you can see a sword you need to pick up, do the same with the shovel available in the top left on the higher floor. Then speak to the shop keeper and talk about the sword and the shovel, say you want both those items. Then ask about the breath mints, before asking what to use the sword on. The shop keeper will tell you about a legendary sword fighter and will then leave to ask if he's allowed to tell you where she is. You're not going to wait for it, so leave the store right away. You can constantly see the shop keeper briefly, walking out of the screen somewhere. That's where you have to go to be able to keep following him. Eventually you will take the route you took to get here, up the mountain and to the world map. You can see him walk and then disappear at an intersection of roads. This spot is mentioned on the map as Fork, so click on it to enter the forest. Pay attention carefully and keep taking the same exits as the shop keeper, so that you don't get lost. Eventually he'll use a log for a bridge and end up at Carla. As soon as you get back control, walk out of the screen at the far left where you came from. You'll end up at the world map, where you choose Fork again right away. Take the path in the middle of the screen, then pick up a piece of the yellow flower in the next screen. Walk out of the screen on the left, then right, then left again and then right again. Then walk through the exit at the top, then right, then left and eventually up again. At the location where you end up, you have to walk right to get to a large cross on the ground. Use the Shovel on it to find a T-shirt. Leave the forest by walking out on the left and then at the top. On the world map, head over to the House, all the way on the right side of the map. On your way there you'll be stopped by a troll, give him the fish to be able to continue. Click on House once again and try to open the door when you get there. You'll start a conversation with a min, in which you asked to be trained so you'll be better at sword fighting than Carla. Keep insisting until the man accepts, tell him you have those thirty pieces of eight and then choose the top option to show him your sword. You'll step inside and after a couple of hours of training the man will tell you you're going to need some good insults to be really good at sword fighting. He'll give you two examples to respond to. It doesn't matter what you pick, the right answers are not available. After those two times you'll be standing outside again, ready to learn some insults on your own before you can take on Carla. Walk out of the screen on the bottom left and you'll get to the world map, where you can see a couple of pirates walking around. You need to walk into them on the world map, after which you tell them to prepare to die. That way you'll initiate a fight with them and your goal is to learn some insults. If you're going for the Achievement named Sharp Tongue, then you will need to learn them all, but you will only need about half of them to defeat the Sword Master. This is how it works. You'll start a sentence and your opponent will react to it. If he gives a correct response, that answer will be added to your options to respond with. So the next time someone starts with the sentence you just used, you now know how to respond to it. If a pirate responds correctly, he will then start a new sentence and you'll give to give a reply. If you haven't heard the answer before, you're not able to give it yet. So sometimes you need to give incorrect answers so that your opponent can tell you new things to start with. You can then use those things to start with in upcoming battles, hoping your opponent will respond with the correct answer. That way you will learn combinations of insults and responses. You need to really beat at least three pirates, they will then tell you you're strong enough to fight the Sword Master. As soon as you did that and think you are ready, select the red dot marked Sword Master's on the map, you'll then bypass the whole forest. Walk to the right and you can see Carly, talk to her and say that you've come to kill her. You'll start a fight and soon notice that she uses quite different insults than the ones you've learned. The answers you can give are still the same as before and fortunately they still serve as adequate responses to what Carla says. Listen carefully to the insults she makes and look for a suiting answer between the possible responses. Sometimes you need to use a little imagination to find the right answer, but the answers can be quite logical and funny. If you're not able to beat Carla, you can just leave the forest and return straight away. She'll be waiting for you outside again. If you do manage to beat her, you'll get a T-shirt that says you defeated the Sword Master. Leave the forest and choose to return to the Village on the world map. When coming down the mountain, walk all the way to the right, past the Scumm Bar and into the actual village. Walk underneath the clock and go all the way to the left and out of the village again through the arch. Follow the path along the cliffs to the Governor's Mansion. You can not enter the house without outsmarting the guard dogs. Use LT to use something and then select the meat. Press RT right away, so that you can use an item on an item. This way you can combine the meat with the yellow flower, then give this combination to the dogs. Don't use it on them, give it! If this does go wrong, you can go back to the kitchen of the Scumm Bar to pick up the meat again. Don't forget it to combine it with the yellow flower again. If you do it right, the dogs will fall asleep and you'll be able to enter the house through the front door. Go through the door immediately on the right. Another man will follow you inside and you'll end up in a fight. From here on you can only keep pressing A for a while. Every time a new description is displayed next to the button, press it. This will you will work your way to the right behind the wall while all kinds of weird stuff happens. Eventually you'll be at the top of the stairs on the right and regain control, after which you leave the house through the front door. Walk back to the village and enter the prison on the left side of the screen. Give the breath mints you are still carrying to the prisoner, which will initiate a conversation. Just say you have to leave again, but before you actually do that you should first give him the Gopher Repellent. You'll get a piece of cake in return, use the Open command on this cake by using LT and RT, so that you'll get a File. Leave the prison and head back left towards the Governor's Mansion. Inside, crawl through the hole in the wall again, above the fallen painting. Again you'll have to press A every once in a while to continue the fight against Fester behind the wall, eventually you'll end up at the top of the stairs again but this time with the small statue you were looking for. If you talk to Fester, tell him it belongs in a museum, after which Elaine will show up. You can only say short jibberish to her so it doesn't really matter what you tell her. She'll just leave, after which you try to leave the house through the front door. You'll bump into Fester, tell him to go away. After that you'll suddenly be in the harbor, where Fester will throw you in the water with the idol tied around your waist. If you just keep standing here for ten minutes without doing anything, you'll earn the Achievement named Ten Minutes Later. You don't need any of the stuff on the ocean floor, just pick up the idol itself and you'll automatically walk over to the ladder on the right side of the screen. If you don't make it in time and sufficate under water, you can just load your most recent autosave. You'll have to do the section with Elaine and Fester again, but you already have the Achievement so you can just exit the water right away by picking up the statue. You can then see LeChuck's ship sail off in the distance, with Elaine on board as the guy from the lookout will tell you. Tell him you're going to rescue her after arranging a ship and a crew. The man will tell you they went to Monkey Island and he'll give you a note. Walk out of the screen on the left and up the path going up the mountain, where you walk underneath the arch to end up on the world map. All the way on the right is a place marked Island, go over there. Use the rubber chicken you have with you on the cable going to the other side, so that you can cross over the water. Enter the house and you'll be addressed by Meathook. Tell him the governor has been kidnapped and that you're looking for a crew to follow her. He will open a couple of large doors and order you to open up the small one. So do that and touch the parrot behind it. Meathook will join your crew, so head outside again and use the Chicken on the cable once more to head back to the other side. Walk outside of the screen on the left to get to the worldmap, but first you'll see a cut scene with LeChuck. Head over to the location marked Sword Master's on the worldmap, head right after arriving and talk to Carla. Also tell her that the governor has been kidnapped, she will join your crew right away. Leave this place by walking outside of the screen on the left and then select Lights at the bottom of the map. You'll immediately be bothered by Stan, a salesman of second hand boats. Tell him that you don't have a lot of money to spend, after his story about the Sea Monkey you also ask him if he accepts credit. Then say this isn't the right ship and then also that you'll have to think about it a little more, so that you'll get some items from Stan when you leave and then end up on the worldmap. Go back to the Village and walk down the mountain to reach the Scumm Bar. Head inside and pick up three mugs standing on the empty tables, then walk out of the screen on the right to see the cook crying. You can talk to him if you want, but eventually you'll just have to enter the kitchen and use one of the mugs on the barrel to the left of the door. The stuff you put in there will eat through the mug, so that's why you're carrying more of them. Quickly leave the kitchen and also the Scumm Bar, after which you run to the right and into the village. Walk underneath the clock and then to the left and quickly into the prison. You can see an icon of the mug in the bottom right of your screen and every time it is almost melted, you have to pour the liquid in a still good mug. That can be quite a hassle, because you have to use the bad mug on a good mug for this and the controls won't work with you. Pay attention to the icon and change the grog to another mug before it melts entirely, otherwise you need to get back to the Scumm Bar to get new mugs and fill one of them again in the kitchen. Eventually you need to end up inside the prison with a mug that's in relatively good condition, then use the mug on the lock of the cell holding the prisonor. This will make the lock melt and the prisoner will thank you and introduce himself as Otis. He'll try to leave with a trick, also leave the prison yourself and walk to the right to go into the shop where you went inside before, next to the church. Talk to the shop keeper and ask him for credit, tell him that you have a job so that he will go and open the safe. Pay close attention to the combination of the safe, formed by the positions of the handlebar. When he asks you what your profession is exactly it doesn't matter what you tell him, he'll just put the note back in the safe so that you can see the combination again. Then ask him about the Sword Master again, he will leave the shop once more. When he is gone you can walk to the safe and use the commands Push and Pull to set the handlebar of the safe to certain positions, according to the correct combination. This combination is random, so it will be different every game. If you manage to open the safe you'll automatically get the note of credit, after which you return all the way to the Scumm Bar, past it up the hill, and along the lookout to the worldmap. Visit Stan again at the location now named Used Ship Emporium. Choose the middle option to get to see the same ship as before, tell him you got credit from the shop keeper. Ask him about the extras and for every example he gives you, you need to tell him you don't need it. Eventually he will start over again mentioning the same extras, that's when you see you had enough and want to make an offer. Start with the lowest amount, 2000 pieces of eight, which he probably won't accept. Make a new offer, now a thousand pieces of eight more. Keep doing this until Stan finally accepts, probably just at 5000 pieces of eight. After the deal has been closed, walk out of the screen on the left and choose Village on the worldmap, where you'll meet Stan again right away. When he leaves, Otis will show up and you ask him if he will join your crew. Carla also appears, tell her you're glad she's here. Last but not least, Meathook will arrive, after which this chapter comes to a close. ___ ___ ____________________________________________________________________ | 3 | 2 | PART TWO: THE JOURNEY | ��� ��� �������������������������������������������������������������������� After some trouble with your crew you'll be standing in the captain's quarters. Pick up both the feather pen and the ink from the desk and leave the room in the bottom left corner. Walk to the rope ladder just right of the mast, so that you'll end up in the crow's nest. Grab the pirate flag and go back down again, where you open the hatch between the captain's quarters and the rope ladder, in the floor behind the mast. Descend further down using the ladder in the center of the floor and open the box on screen in the bottom right of the screen, then use the Look At command on it to get some wine out of it. Pick up the rope a little to the left, placed on a barrel, then try to pick up the barrels on the left side of the screen to get some gun powder. Climb back up the ladder and then go down the ladder in the back to get to the kitchen. Open the cupboard on the left and grab a box of cereal out of it. Use the command Open on the cereal in your inventory to extract a prize from it, then open that item to get into possession of a key. Pick up the pot directly underneath the cupboard and climb back up again, do that again to get back on deck. Go into the captain's quarters and use the key you just found on the closet to the right of the bed. Pick up the chest so that Guybrush places it in the middle of the room, then open it and use the Look At command on it to get a note and some cinnamon sticks. Now you'll have all kinds of ingredients you need to cmbine, as described on the note. First you need to return to the kitchen for this, so leave the captain's quarters and go down the hatch below the mast and then using the ladder in the back. There's a large pot above the fire, you need to throw in the Cereal, Jolly Roger, Ink, Chicken, Breath Mints, Fine Wine, Gunpowder and Cinnamon Sticks. This will make the ship sail to Monkey Island automatically. As soon as you regain control, first just pick Walk To somehwere so that Guybrush will stand up. Then use the Feather Pen on the fire below the pot and leave the kitchen using the ladder. Go down the other ladder and try to pick up the barrels on the left again to get more gun powder. Go back up again, all the way to the deck, where you'll be able to see Monkey Island in the distance. Use the Gunpowder on the barrel of the cannon, then the rope on the cannon itself. Then use the Flaming Mass from your inventory on the fuse you just created, so that you set it on fire. Then quickly walk to the front and of the cannon's barrel to be launched towards Monkey Island. ___ ___ ____________________________________________________________________ | 3 | 3 | PART THREE: UNDER MONKEY ISLAND | ��� ��� �������������������������������������������������������������������� Use Walk To on some random location to get Guybrush out of the ground. Read the note hanging on the tree, this is part of the Achievement named Recordkeeper and you need to find and read an additional eight of them. You can use Look At on the memos in your inventory to read them all again, the notes you can't pick up won't be in here but it does give you an indication of how many you found. Pick up the banana on the ground next to the tree and then walk to the back into the jungle. You will end up on a new worldmap, where you need to go all the way to the top left to see a different part of it. Head over to the Beach, at the bottom of your screen. Pick up the note, part two of the Recordkeeper Achievement. Herman Toothrot will suddenly show up again, tell him to leave you alone and head back into the jungle. Just above the water in the vulcano you can discover the Fort on the ridge and head over there. First pick up the binocular and the rope, then use the Push command on the cannon. Once again, tell Herman to leave you alone, then pick up the cannon ball and the gun poweder. Walk out of the screen on the right and do the same on the world map, walk to the River Fork on the other part of it. Pick up the stone positioned on top of the note, you'll automatically read the third message for the Recordkeeper Achievement. Climb up using the wall in the back of the screen and read the fourth note laying on the floor here, this time from Herman. Climb up further along the path in the back of the screen and push the rock on the edge of the mountain. Through Herman's mechanism below, a rock will be launched towards your ship and sink it. Herman shows up again, just tell him to leave you alone again. Try to pick up the pile of rocks on the right, this will make Guybrush put back another rock on the edge of the mountain. Go back down and read the note again, it's now a different message. Then use the Pull command on the Primitive Art. This can be a little tricky, because you'll sometimes push instead of pull, but your goal is to turn the whole thing clockwise until the rock is all the way in the back and the log is pointing towards your screen. Go back up again and push the rock down again, the stone that gets launched now will hit the banana tree on the beach. Go back down and then again past the Primitive Art, then walk to the dam and use the gun powder you have with you on that dam. Then use Look At on the Noteworthy Rock in your inventory, this will change its name to Flint. Use that item on the cannonball, so that the dam breaks and you end up on the world map. Move towards the end of the bottom river, to a place named Pond. Read the note on the ground and once again tell Herman to leave. Pick up the rope near the skeleton and then head back into the jungle, where you walk out of the screen at the bottom and look for the Crack on your way to the beach. Use one of the ropes you have with you on the strong branch sticking out of the cliff walls. Then use the other rope on the tree trunk a little lower, after which you can descend into the crack to pick up the oars. Click on the corner in the bottom left to climb back up again and get to the world map, where you go south to get to the beach. Pick up the two bananas and use the oars on the boat, after which you can use this boat to float around the world map. Go to the corner in the top right, when the map changes you have to go out of the screen at the top. If that doesn't work, click closer to the land. Go on towards the beach on the right of the screen and pick up the note on the right of your screen when you get there. Walk into the jungle and choose Village in the top left of the world map. Continue through the village to the left, past the door, and pick up the bananas from the bowl of fruit. When you walk back to the right you will run into the cannibals, tell them not to eat you and that you're willing to give them anything. Then just wait for the cannibals to lock you up. When inside the hut, first read the note of course and then pick up the skull. Now you can pick up the board below it and then escape through the hole. You'll be on the world map a little later, but to get the Achievement named Escape Artist you need to escape the cannibal hut a few more times. To do that, return to the Village, walk left when inside and then back to the right again. Once again, tell them you're willing to give them anything for not eating him and then try to walk away so that you get captured again. Just escape through the hole in the floor again and keep repeating this until you get the Achievement. Return to the beach on the right when on the world map and get into your little boat. First go out of the screen in the bottom right and then as far in the bottom left as possible, dock your boat there on the beach and head straight into the jungle. You'll see a monkey walking around on the map, he's pretty fast and very small. Click on him and you'll run into him in the forest. Give him all five bananas you have and then walk back into the jungle, the monkey thinks you're nice and decides to follow you around. Walk out of the screen at the top and then to the right towards the peninsula. Head up to the beach there and pick up the bottle in the water to find the last message for the Recordkeeper Achievement. Go right back into the jungle and choose Clearing on the world map, in the center of the peninsula to your right. When there, head over to the right until you get to a fence. Use the Pull command on the nose of the left totem pole, it's the stick sticking out to the right. The fence will open up, but as soon as you let go it will close again. Fortunately the monkey is able to help you with this, when he pulls the stick the passage will open again so that you can walk over to the giant stone monkey head on the right. There are a lot of small statues on the ground here, one of them is called the Wimpy Little Idol when you move your cursor over it. Pick it up and walk back to your monkey, and then onwards until you get back on the map again. Walk out on the left side of the screen first, then at the bottom. Go onto the beach and get into your boat, use it to go out of the screen in the top right and then as far in the top left as possible. Because of the current it can take a while for you to get there, but dock next to the beach once you get there. Walk into the jungle and to the Village in the top left of the map. Head left, over to the hut you escaped from, and then back right again to meet the cannibals again. Once again, tell them you're willing to give them anything for not eating you, after which you hand them the Wimpy Little Idol. Go inside the hut they locked you up in and pick up the giant banana picker below the window. Leave the hut and walk over to the right, Herman Toothrot is standing there and you need to give him the banana picker. Leave the village and go back inside right away, so that you get talked to by the cannibals again. Tell them there is something and then that you're looking for someone. Then tell them you're looking for people who are not alive, after which you ask them why they won't make their potion right away. LeChuck stole their special root, so ask them where he's hiding it and then if you can see that location. The tell the cannibals that you're off to find LeChuck and the root, after which they'll start whispering against each other and you need pick the top option in the conversation to find out more. The conversation is then over and now the cannibals will be called friendly natives. Give them the Leaflet you have with you, that makes them think they can get a new head while the actual information tells you how to get ahead. You will receive the head of the navigator, after which you head back into the jungle on the right. Head back to the beach, step into your boat and go out of the screen at the bottom twice. Get out of the boat at the beach at the bottom of your screen, walk into the jungle and then out of the screen at the top. Then walk out of the screen on the right side and head over to the Clearing, where you head over to the right again and walk through the opening in the fence the monkey is still keeping open for you. Walk towards the monkey head statue and then to the right side of it, next to the big ear. Use the Monkey Head Key from your inventory, which looks lick a cotton stick, on the giant stone monkey ear. This will make the mouth of the head open up, click on it so you'll head inside. Walk to the right and then across the path along the back and to the front again, then out of the screen. You'll then end up in a maze for which you need the navigator's head, so use it. The head of the navigator will look in the direction you need to go to, so every time you enter a screen you have to exit it on the side the head is looking at. Sometimes that means heading back in the same direction as the one you came from, but you'll magically end up somewhere else and eventually you'll get to LeChuck's ship. Before you do anything, use LT to pick the command Talk To, then use RT to select the navigator's head. As the head if you can have the necklace and then tell it you might just take it. Tell him you don't want to hurt it and then ask if he is going to bite you. Threaten him by saying you can pick him right into the lava, after which you get permission to take the necklace. Then use this necklace through your inventory and walk towards the ghost ship. Once on board, walk to the left and open the door left of the sleeping ghost dog, head inside and use the Magnetic Compass on the key hanging on the back wall. Leave the room again and walk to the right across the ship, where you go down through the hatch in the floor. Head through the door on the right of the screen and pick up the Ghost Feather, which is located on the floor in between the ghost chickens. Walk back to the previous room and use the ghost feather on the feet of the sleeping ghost pirate. What needs to happen doesn't happen right away, so do it again immediately. The pirate will release the item he was holding, so pick it up and go through the passage on the right again. In the middle of the floor is a hatch, first use the key you have with you on it and then go down through the hatch. Use the jug you just got on the plate located on the floor, to lure away the rat. Then pick up some of the Cooking Grease, after which you can go up the ladder, walk through the exit and head back up another ladder. Use the Glob of Grease you have with you on the door to your right, now you can go through it without making a sound. Pick up the tools hanging on the wall next to the sleeping ghost pirate and leave the room again. Descend through the hatch and go through the passage on the right, a little further ahead you need to use the Ghost Tools on the shiny crate. After opening it, look at the crate to find the root you were looking for, then you can leave the room again, use the ladder to climb to the deck and step of the ship in the back towards the cave. Click on the left edge of the screen to walk further into the cave, after which you automatically end up in the village of the natives. While they are away, a three-headed monkey appears, it doesn't matter what you say here. After your line, the natives will return and give you a flask with a special potion. Walk into the jungle on the right, after which you end up in the cave below the island automatically. You will bump into LeChuck's assistant, tell the evil ghost that he can taste some root juice. Ask him where the ghost ship is and then tell him that you won't hurt him. He will mention a wedding, so ask him where it is held and then say that you will chase LeChuck and Elaine. Herman Toothrot will show up and he says that he'll take along Bob on his boat, quickly talk to Herman using the single option and then ask him if he can also take you with him. ___ ___ ____________________________________________________________________ | 3 | 4 | LAST PART: GUYBRUSH KICKS BUTT | ��� ��� �������������������������������������������������������������������� After a couple of lines from Guybrush, try to walk out of the screen on the right. You'll be stopped by a ghost pirate, it doesn't matter which response you choose, Guybrush will just use the special potion to take care of the pirate. Walk out of the screen on the right side again and in the village you can open the door directly next to you on the left, this will make you end up behind the pirate. You can just leave this pirate alone, just walk underneath the block in the back to get to the part of the village where the church is located. Open the door and head inside, then shoot Elaine's name. You will get into a conversation with LeChuck, tell him you came to prevent him from marrying the governor. Suddenly Elaine just shows up, so ask her who exactly is wearing the dress. It appears to be two monkeys who will then flee. LeChuck is still talking to you, choose the fourth option from the top as a response. Before you can use the special potion, LeChuck will smack you all across the entire map and he will do the same to Stan the ship salesman. Every time you are on the ground and LeChuck is preparing to hit you again, try to quickly pick up the flask with the special potion, select the Use command, select the special potion and then use it on LeChuck before he hits you. When you manage to do that, the party will start and Elaine shows up. Accept her offer to get a drink, then you can see that your crew is still stranded on Monkey Island. When Elaine asks you what you learned from all of this, it doesn't matter what you say. After that the credits roll. +---+------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 4 | C O N C L U S I O N | +---+------------------------------------------------------------------------+ ___ ___ ____________________________________________________________________ | 4 | 1 | FINAL WORD | ��� ��� �������������������������������������������������������������������� After so many years it�s fun to see the original Monkey Island with new visuals. This title again proves how obscure some puzzles and solutions in this kind of games can be. As a fan of point-and-click adventures, I�m hoping this will bring a couple of new games in the genre to the current generation of consoles. If you look purely at how LucasArts overhauled the game, a lot more would have been possible. It�s still a very short game and those 800 Microsoft Points are mainly paid for nostalgia. ___ ___ ____________________________________________________________________ | 4 | 2 | CREDITS | ��� ��� �������������������������������������������������������������������� LUCASARTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ In a time where remakes dominate downloadable platforms, Monkey Island provides a welcome change between all those fighters. They�ve given a classic new life, but they could have done it even better than this. GAMEFAQS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For hosting this document.
