The third chapter of the Monkey Island's saga is on the run, and lacks nothing of the former two episodes' features. This demo (which is just the beginning of the complete adventure, obviously truncated when you are giving the first bite), offers a good example of all the best characteristics of Monkey Island's series. Wonderful graphics (deeply changed, more cartoon-like respect to the former episodes), superb sound effects (listen to the voices), the neve rending fight between Guybrush Threepwood and the Pirate LeChuck for beautiful Elaine's love; the puzzles to solve, as usual enough challenging for grey cells to be really addicting, but always solvable (very, very in the end...) not to be annoying. And don't forget texts which are, as usual, rich of jokes, funny and weird (take a look at the pirate's slang). Is there anything more to say? Take the full version, it is really worth the price.
