  • I played the first, maybe not all the way through, on my Atari ST. Later on, I got quite annoyed that the Amiga got the sequel but Lucasfilm Games days it wasn’t coming to the Atari.

    I remember getting the PC CD-ROM edition of the original game and the music was lovely.

    The next time I played was game three, Curse of Monkey Island. I loved the art style and completed that one.

    I plan on playing the latest installment at some point. I downloaded it onto my Xbox.

    There’s also a great program for playing old Lucasfilm faces on PC. You can load soundbanks into it because it can emulated different midi interfaces that I dreamed of owning back in the day. The tunes sound amazing.
