Played by: Geekmeister
LeChuck is at it again, he has kidnapped Elaine, (and also a whole bunch of monkeys) Luckily Guybrush Threepwood has (with the help of the Voodo Lady) put together a Voodo disspelling sword! So rescuing Elaine and Stopping Lechuck should be walk in the monkey park, right? -

34:57 Can I call you "D'oro the Explorer? *punch himself* "D'oro: No

[@unboxingvaio979]

"Reminds me of me when I was your age". "When was that? Like 20 minutes ago?" This game in my opinion, has one the best game scripts. It was clearly done with love, I wish telltale made a 5th installment of monkey island, but, of course, they had to focus on batman, the wolf among us, and other games that never really captured the sweet spirit of this game. I hope this game gets re-released on the ps4. I own it on gog (sadly it was removed from gog's catalog a few months ago so you can no longer buy it).

[@tokutickler]

After years and years of intense effort, Guybrush has finally grown a tiny little beard XD

[@samuelfawell9159]

Well it had been about a decade since the last MI game, and Guybrush was in his early 20s then, so it’s only taken a decade to grow one, in 20 more he might actually pick up some more manly features.

[@Tue_]

The start was really really really slow - but certainly had some twist compared to things.

[@jackhilder3465]

1:48:21 "all we got is u tubes these days" Me: hahaha I get it lol XD

[@finalfantasylord1]

anyone else notice that the sword is made of many objects that defeated lechuck in the past

[@allecsgaut8161]

Yep, noticed the Ultimate Insult

[@Zeruel82Mk2]

Lol, I just can't help but laughing when he totally unexpected punches himself in the face : ) (34:58)

[@Redheero]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL, HA! U Tubes. The only thing that makes that funnier is the fact I'm watching this on KZbin!

[@iBurnCDs]

This game reeks of the Telltale Games vibe... too bad they did little to preserve the LucasArts charms. But I'm glad they got the same voice actress for Elaine from the third game.

[@Tenraiden]

Alexandra Boyd has voiced Elaine in all games and she a qt

[@TheGallifreyanWitch]

1:45:00 ish: Hang on, did Guybrush just make a Wallace and Gromit reference???

[@SpiderandMosquito]

CHEESE

[@Calculon1712]

yes he did because the year before this came out, TellTale did a Wallace & Gromit adventure game which you can no longer purchase as the licence expired

[@FlammieLL]

The only thing we have left is u-tubes... I SEE WHAT YOU DID THAR >:)

[@McConius]

i still love the intro music. as original as the first. happy days

[@freek3000]

The "U" tube gag made me lol

[@Zeldarules4ever]

Me too

[@jackhilder3465]

U tube more like KZbin.reference😁

[@murple1537]

this game was good, curse of monkey island will always be my favorite, i've played all the monkey island games. all quality even when the graphics got you down like this one, i feel like guybrush doesn't even look like guybrush, the voice acting and script are well worth it. wish they'd make another 2d one like everyone keeps saying

[@inglejuice]

The original creators are back for the 2d next instalment, Return to Monkey Island - check it out ! Our prayers have been answered.

[@KenArkane]

1:16:00 De Singe: "Just imagine, someday people will be able to share hundreds of pictures of their holiday travels with their extended families, simultaneously!" Guybrush: "YOU FIEND!" :D

[@tomakpote]

How the Hell did LeChuck survived the Ultimate Insult and Why the Hell they don't explain?

[@jrv1326]

i love this music for real

[@margotharris3670]

4:43 He's not wrong. "Why's it so light" is a close second.

[@JadeyedGrey]

I would have thought a close second would be “Hey, I’m not dead!”

[@makita3680]

As a big fan of Curse, I like this.

[@Zeruel82Mk2]

1:48:21 Wow, that's especially fitting here : )

[@IconDevco]

they really upped the animation for this. kinda looks like tye animations from adventures of Jimmy neutron

[@lemonybiscuits4824]

hope they make a sequel! who's with me on this??

[@tenchi586]

I really want them to make a sequel, but technically Disney owns Monkey Island now. Still, yes, want a sixth Monkey Island game.

[@MTTT19]

tenchi586 I hope for another Monkey Island game too. Though at the end of the day, that's down to Disney. However, considering that the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise is dead (despite the fact their making a fifth entry) why not make a Monkey Island Movie?

[@leoshork]

Me... But RIP Telltale.

[@tenchi586]

Yeah, I'm sad that Telltale went out of business.

[@olewornhat]

Good job. I have to agree with Alaron251. Not doing a speed run made it more enjoyable to watch you play the game.

[@rhandyrhoads12]

D'Oro the Explorer

[@CyberOxinc]

"I've been reliably informed that the bird is in fact the word" peter would be proud

[@ZorotheGallade]

Marquis sounds...and LOOKS...and FEELS a lot like the Medic in TF2!

[@edusuntrebor]

Is Winslow actually humming some HMS Pinafore?!

[@yekyab]

Guybrush manages to trap his Poxed hand in tar, which is what Sam and Max did to Jesse James' zombie hand in "Night of the Raving Dead

[@MikeWildePredator]

46:04, The Club 41 Blindfolded Fiasco. 49:40, The Marquis De Singe Still Busy, Which Leads To 1 Person... 1:21:23, Peg-legged Hemlock McGee Slumped @ The Flotsam Island Courthouse. (I Think He Sounded Like Rolf From Ed, Edd & Eddy).

[@leandrotami]

At 1:02 when he reads the title of the books it sounds like he's having an asthma attack

[@jdor827]

Its the guy from poker night at the inventory!

[@qwertstrewq]

7:06 Heh. A trademark sign.

[@michaeldonaghy5217]

Monkey island Monkey Island

[@blacksunapocalypse]

I don't think I could play any of the MI games that don't have the classic art style. This looks so... hollow.

[@winnetouch]

I played all 5 chapters and enjoyed ALL of them. I started my point and click days when I was 3 or 4 years old. My cousin used to play MI2 with me and later MI1. This is the closest the series ever came to being really good after MI2. MI3 was meh... and MI4 was a disaster.

[@planetpihl660]

part 1 of tales of monkey island is called the launch of the screaming narrwhal!

[@TheRogueMonk]

hapy i found you ... i couldnt continue watching some other ones videos he stopped

[@backpackdude1]

A snap gag is hilarious.

[@Omuraspencer]

@1:45:06 thats a nice wallace and gromit reference.

[@marblefan500]

@Roberto26666 I liked the third one.

[@Gabrys494]

Wonder where we will get to see the voodoo lady (about 3 or 2 games ago she said she had a five game contract with LucasArts)

[@Tenraiden]

1:03:50 Ron Gilbert

[@Elyseon]

Like a volcano!

[@janterrirocks]

1:41:53 "...Make me." love that part.

[@chrisdreemurr117]

Wait! Was the voodoo lady going to say "supple Theighs?

[@veggiekid23]

oh its chapter 1 to 5 i though it was chapter 1 part 1 but who would make an hour long first part about a really short game.

[@varium]

@Bastiest I think this works fine

[@Sobergrey]

34:56

[@vengeanceau]

I vot part 2 of this game and i dont know how to play it

[@charlottejensen9497]

Where is that place where the black doll shall be

[@emanuel82]

Is there any good explanation why they abandoned the SCUMM game engine after Monkey Island 3?

[@mkarmam]

Fantastic

[@itskerbs]

I thought MI4 was awesome. Actually had to think pretty hard at some points which kept me from beating it in 2 days.

[@AndyCompston]

All we have is U-tubes, eh? haha

[@iamaladder4036]

D'oro the explorer. I like dem reference

[@Quiescent_Pandemonium]

These series died for me after 4th. Lucas killed the this one too. All they did is cash in the great series without showing any real respect or love. Shitty puzzles, shitty voice acting, shitty humor, shitty art design, and shitty story etc... This game doesn't deserve the M in Monkey Island™!!!

[@lonetrans7509]

Dreamworks smirk all the fucking time

[@christofferskaderis7045]

he also says bird is the word :D

[@MattySadler]

Loved the first four Monkey Island games, these Tales ones were okay but I didn't really dig them so much...

[@Alldressedup100]

MattySadler imo ToMI was much better than Escape. I really enjoyed the story.

[@LizardOfOz69]

Alldressedup100 yeah guybrush was actually funny here. I've seen escape and he was as bland as plank of wood.

[@Uru19861]

0:44 - When did Lechuck visit our capital?

[@alevd14]

i would kill to get this game!!

[@farangannachannel]

From Lukas Film In Star Wars

[@ZaneCapps]

for a kids game this has a lot of innuendo

[@HavenRaven]

All of the Monkey Island series are rated T for Teens, mainly for jokes and reference to alcohol. So it is not really a kids' game.

[@ZaneCapps]

HavenRaven no it's rated E10+ look it up on the website

[@DaShonuff]

Zane Capps ESRB is subjective.

[@ZaneCapps]

Zidanê Tribal I'm 13 and can play the game just fine

[@winnetouch]

The only thing i thought was good was the fact that the bannana picker was used more than once. The story wasn't bad either but gameplay was really terible. Also the puzzles werent really all that fun. At least to me...

[@SomeFluffer1964]

43:23 Harry Moleman from Sam and Max!

[@Riverr5]

Hi 😀

[@FeeDBacKMKII]

after the third part of Monkey Island series the style looks more terrible then before plz go back to the original style everything looks so poor detailed

[@rikkibobbi7587]

Y U NO TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALK

[@berserkchip]

1:49:40 .... What the.... Fffff.... The ff... What the.... I'm not sure whether to laugh or be grossed out. it'd be funny enough if it just had him be hurt by the thing. It's another entirely to have him be... err... turned on by it.

[@orbik_fin]

Lol'd at all we got is u-tubes

[@hottemy]

i saw 50:03 minutes and then i didnt watch more...

[@TrancoTechnizer]

classic

[@apartmentrecording]

great game

[@godziothc]

then go watch a michael bay movie

[@phyrr2]

Ew, a longplay without the Earl Boen version.

[@Jakedaww]

bwhaha, at 1:45:07 wallace&gromit

[@vengeanceau]

(vot) *got

[@ThatCreeNative1]

The first ten minutes are absolutely horrid.

[@ULTRAWIDE.]

The worst addition to the series IMO. The control scheme was pap. The puzzles were too illogical. I didn't really find these funny also to be honest. They went too cartoony with it all. Not many clever witted jokes or digs and satire related jokes either. Shame really. Im glad they got Earl Boen back to revoice LeChuck though. The original guy they started off with was terrible. I'd like it to go back to a semi serious tone, like monkey island 2. With lovely hand drawn 2D artwork. Similar to Daedalic's adventure games (Chains of satinav, memoria etc..)

[@predatortheme]

1:03:33 sounds like asthma

[@ewanmacleod4148]

1:41:53 ahahahh

[@friedpicklezzz]

God, this game is awful compared to MI 1 to 3. Should never have been made.

[@AdventuryMSDOS]

whoops, ugly grafic .

[@iamcoolificationful]

The Broken Sword series are much better than this!

[@eiszapfenderwutendenwinde3233]

Thank god, Telltale is gone! This game is a prime example why the studio failed! Stupid story telling. Beyond garbage graphics. It can't even be called "Art Style". Its just bad! The lack of Monkey Island music. Gameplay is pure trash. And the jokes are not funny. Good Riddance! btw. let me tell you a real joke, Telltale Games.....

[@pocdavactube3475]

Telltale games made one of the best games ever made.Did you know that they made Monkey Island 1&2?Yeah the guys that made these left Lucasarts to make their Telltale games company

[@OriruBastard]

@DinerSals I could possibly find something intelligent and rather insulting to reply to you if I'd put my mind in to it... However... At the moment the only real reply I can give to you is a *facepalm* I wasn't talking about YOU critisizing me.

[@OriruBastard]

@DinerSals Oh my god, critsm. Fanboy's terror number one. Shed me a tear while you're at it will ya?

[@OriruBastard]

@DinerSals Roight, have a good day with your shut ups sir.
