About This Game

The Secret of Monkey Island™: Special Edition revitalizes the acclaimed 1990 classic for loyal fans and new players. LucasArts modernizes the experience with a re-imagined hand-drawn art style, a re-mastered musical score, full voiceovers, and a helpful hint system. Purists can toggle instantly between the updated visuals and the original classic version. The game follows the naive but determined hero Guybrush Threepwood on a hilarious quest to become a pirate.

Features include an intuitive interface and enhanced controls.
