Secret of Monkey Island, The

In The Secret of Monkey Island, you play the role of Guybrush Threepwood, a young man who has just hit the shores of Mêlée Island (somewhere in the Caribbean). Our naive hero's travels have led him to Mêlée Island in a quest to fulfill his life's ambition...to become a fierce swashbuckling, bloothirsty pirate.

Unbeknownst to Guybrush, however, there have been some strange happenings in the area surrounding Mêlée Island and the more mysterious Monkey Island. As he walks into this maelstrom of mystery, Guybrush will soon be very aware that things are not what they appear to be, that even bloodthirsty pirates can be scared, and that there's more to being a pirate than swinging a sword and drnking grog!

Here's where you come in...You direct the actions of Guybrush as he first explores Mêlée Island and then ventures on to Monkey Island. On Mêlée Island, Guybrush will have to prove himself worthy of becoming a pirate by completing The Three Trials. Through the course of completing these trails, you and Guybrush will learn much about pirate life and local folklore. But don't be surprised if you find that some of the people you meet seem rather anachronistic!

If this is your first computer adventure game, be prepared for an entertaining challenge. Be patient, even if it takes a while to figure out some of the puzzles. If you get stuck, you might need to solve another puzzle first or find and use an object. But hang in there and use your imagination, and you will guide Guybrush to discover...The Secret of Monkey Island!
