And believe me, everything has a really funny comment behind it, so do everything. The music in the game is wonderful, certainly worthy of a movie soundtrack or an Oscar nomination, even for midi music. You probably won't get through the game without hearing some masterpiece of music. My personal favorites were the theme song played at the title screen, the song played when each of the new story parts screen comes up, and LeChuck's theme song.
The puzzles in the game are by no means easy, and should be a little difficult even for veterans of Sierra's games. The graphics are simply stunning for the time it was made, and even for pixels, it borders on the realistic. Definitely worthy of an award. Another thing I liked about this game is the fact it doesn't have the annoying pixel hunt you normally see.
The cursor displays the name of the hotspot when it crosses over it, telling you where it is. I loved this game. When I first popped it into my CD drive, I figured it would be another average adventure that wouldn't be able to call itself better than Space Quest.
Boy, was I wrong! I couldn't believe my eyes and ears, this game was amazing! I have probably replayed this game times without getting tired of it. So as I find this game to be one of the greatest adventure games, I think it is especially deserving of a score. But since the Abandonia score only goes as high as a 5, I'll give it a 5. You should get and play this game as fast as you can! Please give whatever you can to help us.

And they didn't fail. The new graphic style fits perfectly into the Monkey Island world, and that is why Curse of Monkey Island looks absolutely gorgeous.
Now that the interface doesn't take any space on the screen, the artists have put their talents to full use and they have succeeded. I have never seen such detailed background art in any computer game Riven? What Riven? It is just stunning. See for yourself in the screen shots. The clouds and beautifully drawn rooms make the game so good looking that I could just stare at them, instead of playing the game.
Character animation is really smooth, and the graphics are overall just excellent. The wonderful LucasArts cut scenes we have got accustomed to are also there, and they are tied nicely to the story.
The music in the game is, as you can expect from a LucasArts production, breath-taking and simply outstanding.
If God works, he has a job at LucasArts' music department. The Monkey Island theme sounds better than ever, and the music is really atmospheric and excellent throughout the game. Some of the old themes are in, but mostly the songs are new. These are tunes you will be humming and that will be stuck in your head.
You have been warned. I just hope there is a soundtrack CD Too often a computer game offers nice-looking graphics, but no gameplay. Is Curse like that? A great relief: no. LucasArts has always put its priorities right, and so it is with Curse.
And that effort really shows in the game. When clicking on an object, the action menu pops up in a shape of a golden doubloon. There are three choices: hand, eyes and mouth, where hand represents all actions like "take", "use", "open" and "push", eyes are used to examine an object and the mouth is used for all oral actions like "talk", "eat", "bite" and "inhale".
The interface works perfectly and is really flexible. It is also context-sensitive, so the verbs change on every object on a person mouth is "talk", on a mug it is "drink" , and this brings whole new dimensions to some puzzles. The inventory is brought up with right-click. Many people were worried about how the designers were going to pick up the story after the weird ending of Monkey Island 2 , and how would the game's humor survive without Ron Gilbert.
I had my reservations too, but Curse was a very positive surprise. The Monkey Island spirit is there from the very beginning, and the whole story is very 'Monkeyean'. What was Big Whoop? Is LeChuck really Guybrush's brother? Will the boy get the girl? Why do adventure games cost so much? Where do babies come from? All will be revealed Guybrush will meet many old friends and enemies during his adventures: Voodoo Lady has moved to Plunder Island, and Wally the Cartographer is, or at least tries to be, a pirate.
We also meet Stan, the former used coffin salesman, and Lemonhead, the vegetarian cannibal. New characters are as colorful and fun as the old characters: there is Murray the demonic skull, Haggis McMutton the pirate barb The interaction with other characters is high on the priority list, like in the first two Monkey Island games, and there is a lot of speech in this game. Guybrush comments on everything and everyone, and most of the funniest jokes are included in these comments.
The Monkey Island humor has stayed the same, which means that the jokes and events are really entertaining: for example, what does a banjo duel sound like? Not to mention the singing pirates.
