Franchise’s history ranked from worst to best.6. Escape from Monkey IslandEscape from Monkey IslandDeveloper: LucasArtsPublisher: LucasArtsPlatform(s): PC, Mac, PS2Adventure games were in a difficult position around the year 2000. They’d mostly been made with 2D graphics since the 80s, but suddenly 3D polygons were all the rage, and games with 2D graphics were seen as old fashioned. Early 3D adventure games were a mixed bag at best, with other adventure franchises like Gabriel Knight and Broken Sword both struggling to get a good 3D game together, but Escape from Monkey Island did a solid job. It helped that it used the GrimE game engine, named after another LucasArts adventure game, Grim Fandango.Grim Fandango, released two years prior, helped LucasArts work out how a 3D adventure game could play, and it played fairly similar to the likes of survival horror games of the 90s. In both Grim Fandango and Escape from Monkey Island, tank controls were employed for the player character, and they were moved around not with the mouse, but with the controller or keyboard. The tank controls could be awkward, as you might suspect, and while it does do the job, it can’t replace the simplicity of simply pointing and clicking.While many Monkey Island fans would claim Escape to be an awful game in the series, in reality, it’s actually a solid and fun adventure game. The PS2 era 3D graphics haven’t aged as well as their 2D counterparts, but they still have a lot of charm and character.5. Tales of Monkey IslandTales of Monkey IslandDeveloper: Telltale GamesPublisher: Telltale GamesPlatform(s): Windows, Mac, iOS, Wii, PS3Possibly the least played of the Monkey Island series, Tales of Monkey Island was released in 2009, nine years on from Escape from Monkey Island. By this point the series was considered dead, or at least undead. In fact, the entire point and click genre had been in the doldrums for years, until one company became a major power in resurrecting the genre: Telltale Games. Telltale released Tales of Monkey Island in their trademark episodic style, and the season was well received overall.It’s unclear why so few people talk about Tales of Monkey Island. Perhaps it’s too far removed from the original four games in the series, maybe fans had moved on, or perhaps not everyone was a fan of Telltale’s episodic format. Whatever the reason, more people could do with playing this underappreciated entry in the series, as this is a great entry into the Monkey Island canon, and the unique art and design shouldn’t be missed out on.This game actually brought together many of the major players from Monkey Island’s development history, most notably ex-developers such as Ron Gilbert, Tim Schafer, Mike Stemmle

Fourth installment of the adventure of the most famous pirate Escape from Monkey Island tells the adventure of Guybrush Threepwood, one of the greatest graphic adventure characters of all times. With a first part that appeared a decade before (1990), the truth is that this story was really successful, and to such an extent that this game was the fourth instalment that they published, and that had long been awaited by its followers.Guybrush Threepwood travels to the Caribbean.An improved plot regarding the third partIn Escape from Monkey Island we will see how Guybrush and Elaine return from their honeymoon to discover that she has been declared officially dead and that their mansion is going to be demolished. And since Elaine is the governess of Mêlée Island, elections are called for, and Charles L. Charles looks set to become the clear winner.Ending this farce, the elections and solving the fictitious death of Elaine, will be up to the players of this graphic adventure, that will see them return once more to Monkey Island.The graphic adventures developed by LucasArts based on the Monkey Island saga usually have a very high level, and Escape from Monkey Island isn't an exception. Thus, enjoying the adventures of our favorite pirate once more is still entertaining and funny. Vanessa Martín¡Hi!

Monkey Island is one of the longest running and most beloved video game series on the face of the planet. Ron Gilbert’s creation is also one of the critically well-received series ever, with all six mainline games in the series receiving positive reviews, and it all started with the dawning of the 90s.1990 was a tale of two halves for LucasArts adventure games. Firstly, they had their beautiful and unique game Loom, which failed to set the world on fire. Ironically, most people remember Loom solely for its reference in Monkey Island. Secondly, they released The Secret of Monkey Island, which just so happened to become the face of point and click adventures from that day forward.It was quickly followed up with a 1991 sequel, in Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge. Again the game was a success, especially in Europe. Monkey Island creator Ron Gilbert would leave LucasArts in 1992, and it took several years to see a threequel in the series. In 1997 we would finally get The Curse of Monkey Island, once again a critical success. PC gaming would become less popular, especially as genres that usually excel on PCs, such as first=person shooters, would become more popular on consoles. Also, console makers would push 3D polygonal graphics toward the end of the decade, as a way to demonstrate the power of their consoles. 2D graphics were considered old fashioned, and this became a huge issue for several point and click franchises.LucasArts pushed into the 3D adventure game market, and found critical success (but not commercial) with 1998’s Grim Fandango. They followed Grim up with the fourth game in the Monkey Island series, Escape from Monkey Island. It was again a critical success, and LucasArts were happy with the sales figures, although it had reportedly not sold as well on the PlayStation 2. Possibly due to the low console sales, or perhaps to the decline of PC gaming and the point and click genre as a whole, we wouldn’t hear much from Monkey Island for many years.Telltale would bring Monkey Island back in 2009 for Tales of Monkey Island, an episodic entry to the series. It would once again feature a 3D aesthetic, a new control method, and bring back several of the Monkey Island team back to the series. It also proved to be Telltale’s most financially successful game at the time it was released. There would be no further Monkey Island games until 2022’s Return to Monkey Island, which returned the series to its 2D roots but with a whole new style.We’ve taken into account every monkey, every eye patch and every undead pirate, so without further ado, here are the Monkey Island games across the
