The secret of Monkey Island (TM) has to be one of the all time classics, I first bought it for my Amiga 1200 back in 1992, I was only 11 years old at the time. It came on four floppy disks and one of them code wheel thingy's for the copy protection, remember them?

Anyway even though is was so much of a fuss having to change disk like every 2 minutes because my Amiga didn't have a hard drive, not that I would know what one was back then, I just could not put this game down! I am a great fan of adventure games and have to say that this is one of the best I have ever played as the new ones out today just don't have the same feel to them.

I suppose for a game that was designed in 1990 the graphics are pretty good and the music all be it Midi file is pretty good also. This was the first "point and click" game that I have ever played and for an 11 year old all the puzzles really made me scratch my head and I have to say that even today if I hadn't completed it so many times and I knew what to do, I would probably still be in the same predicemant!

This game really is good fun and quite comical in parts, they really don't make them like this anymore...
