LucasArts? point-and-click adventure game ?The Secret of Monkey Island? was incredibly successful among game players, providing a funny and eventful distraction from the tedium of 1990 life, whatever that may have been. The inevitable sequel failed to surprise the gaming public when it followed the example of most other inevitable releases and occurred, and it followed a roughly similar format to the first game. There were a number of changes though: this game was quite larger, and with more for the player to do. It also had the advantage of being able to build upon its predecessor?s strengths and weaknesses. ... Read the complete review

Last night I purchased "Monkey Island 2 - Lechucks Revenge" off the Playstation Network for a mere £7.99. I have to admit, I was sold on the trailer alone. The demo was too short to be of any substance, but it certainly showed the good things to come. It should be noted here that the trailer is a tad deceiving. The graphics aren't quite as good as it leads you to believe, but I'll let them off, it wasn't even 10 quid after all! Monkey Island 2 is one of those quirky things that has come about thanks to 80′s kids growing up and becoming industry leaders, game designers and film makers. It's like the Transformers movies or the ... Read the complete review

Monkey Island 2: Lechucks Revenge was released in 1991 and followed 1990s the Secret of Monkey Island.

Obtain a crew, a ship, create a voodoo doll are just some of the objectives you will need to do whilst your time in the game. However to make matters worse LeChuck is back ...

Monkey Island 2 - Le Chuck's Revenge. The second in the famous Monkey Island adventure games. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I ended up playing this game before the first in the series, but it didn't hinder my enjoyment at all. This was the first adventure point-and-click type game I ever played, and for a 12 year old (at the time!), it was perfect. Le Chucks Revenge starts with a unique option - something I don't believe I've seen in many other games of this genre - you get the chance to play the hard or easy version! So being a bit wet behind the ears, and a newbie to adventure games, I first played it in the easy mode. Excellent. With a bit ... Read the complete review
