The Curse of Monkey Island

Pirate Guybrush Threepwood discovers that Elaine's engagement ring carries a curse, and suspects his nemesis LeChuck is behind it. He sets out across the islands to find a way to save her. Explore locations, talk with characters, examine objects, and use items to solve puzzles and advance the story. Some encounters involve insult-based swordfighting, while ship battles add another pirate challenge. The adventure is presented as a colorful, animated 2D cartoon with spoken dialogue and music. Choose between Regular and Mega-Monkey difficulty; the game describes the latter as having more puzzles.

As pirate Guybrush Threepwood, explore islands, solve point-and-click puzzles, and face LeChuck to lift a curse and save Elaine.
