Return to Monkey Island is an unexpected, thrilling return of series creator Ron Gilbert that continues the story of the legendary adventure games The Secret of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge developed in collaboration with Lucasfilm Games.
It’s been many years since Guybrush Threepwood was last locked in a battle of wits with his nemesis, the zombie pirate LeChuck. His true love, Elaine Marley, has turned her focus away from governing and Guybrush himself is adrift and unfulfilled, having never found the Secret of Monkey Island. Hip, young pirate leaders led by Captain Madison have shuffled the old guard from power, Melee Island has taken a turn for the worse, and famed businessman Stan has been imprisoned for ‘marketing-related crimes’.
Banter with old friends and new faces on familiar islands now under dangerous new leadership. Then, take to the high seas and explore the new and unknown as you work your way out of tough predicaments. Clever puzzles, bizarre situations, and devastating ripostes are all that stand between Guybrush and glory.
Return to Point & Click Swashbuckling
Bringing classic point and click gameplay to the modern-day, intrepid pirates will solve puzzles and explore the islands with a clever evolution of classic adventure game controls. Context-sensitive interactions, reactive dialog trees, and an easy-to-use inventory system make pirating a breeze.
Embark on Archipelago Adventures
Navigate the sometimes-friendly confines of Melee Island, a familiar place that finds itself under new management by leaders who have put the squeeze on old friends and new faces. Venture out into uncharted lands like the aptly named Terror Island and the chilling outposts of Brrr Muda to make allies and enemies alike.
Created by a Legendary Crew
The new chapter in the Monkey Island series marks the return of the iconic series’ creator Ron Gilbert, joined by game co-writer Dave Grossman, art director Rex Crowle (Knights & Bikes, Tearaway) and composers Peter McConnell, Michael Land, and Clint Bajakian (Monkey Island, Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge).

I’m 27 and cried at the end, reading the note in the scrapbook. Y’all made a really great story.
Great point and click adventure game

Really brings back memories of old point and click adventure games. The animation, music, and dialogue are fantastic. Two minor requests - disable screen dimming so phones don’t lock during long dialogues; allow iCloud saved games so you can play on any device from the same saved games.
Great get for Arcade

This is a great purchase by Apple to make available for the Arcade. More classic Lucasarts Graphic Adventure franchises!
Great game, screen shuts off
Mon Jun 10 2024 JAWB25
If you set your phone to turn off the screen after 30-60 seconds it constantly turns off whenever listening to dialog (unless you tap the screen repeatedly every few seconds to tell the phone you’re “active”). It’s not a problem in other games where you don’t interact with the screen for an extended period of time. It must be an option when the game is running to avoid shutting off the screen. It’s super annoying and I don’t want to have to change the display settings just for this game. It requires time to read or listen to characters so this change would make a huge difference, especially for accessibility. Otherwise this game is 5 stars unquestionably!
