Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge is an iPhone remake of the classic LucasArts adventure game.

If you’ve never played Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge before then you’re in for a treat. Even if you have then this special edition will help you enjoy this great game like never before.

Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge is an old school point-and-click adventure in which you need to wander around islands talking to people, solving clues and figuring out what the heck is going on. You control the actions of your character, Guybrush Threepwood, by tapping the screen to move around, and using the verb icons at the bottom to interact with people and objects. You can switch between traditional direct input or trackpad controls.

There’s no disputing the gameplay qualities of Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge. It’s generally regarded as one of the greatest point-and-click adventures of all-time, full of baffling puzzles, hilarious dialog, and gripping storyline.

Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge polishes the original to create an even richer gaming experience. The high definition graphics and re-scored soundtrack really enhance the atmosphere of the game.

There’s an amazing scene-for-scene hot swap feature that allows you to switch between Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge and the Classic edition at any time during the game. You do this just by pinching in or out to switch instantly.

Having played Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge on the iPad first, I have to say the iPhone version seems a bit less impressive graphically, and sometimes moving around and selecting objects can be a bit fiddly.

Monkey Island 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge is an immaculate mobile modernization of one of the greatest adventure games of a generation.
