Rating: Summary: Good game, bad compatibility Review: The excitement that was about to explode from within me the moment I received my copy of Escape from Monkey Island (Mac) was impossible to describe in words. However, that excitement quickly became that of sorrow when I realized that this game is not very compatible with OS X 3.The game is playable, but the in-game movies don't seem to like playing. The sound comes out crystal clear, but unless you enjoy being in a simulation of playing a game in a pitch black cave, you'll probably find it as annoying as I did. And to make sure I was not the only one to have this problem I searched forum after forum only to find out that there are many other people suffering from the same ailment. If you're running OS 9 to OS X 2, get the game, it's a definite buy -- funny and smart. If you're running OS X 3, beware of some annoyances that will probably stick its ugly head out.
Rating: Summary: Best Game that I have for Mac OS X! There are better games.. Review: This game is funny, it has awesome background graphics, and a fun storyline.People always complain about the controls, but they are easy. You are a mighty pirate named Guybrush Threepwood, and you need to stop the Ultimate Insult. The puzzles are sometimes easy, sometimes hard...and I did need a couple of hints. Overall, it was only 10 dollars and it took me 2 weeks to beat it! IT IS WORTH IT!
