Looks like Disney are rolling this sale along the deal sites. It was on gamersgate at the weekend, bought it after finding iOS 11 has rendered both games useless on iPad.

Spot on.
It was weird cause my sister asked me that very weekend "how can I get my hands on monkey island?!" so I pointed her to the GamersGate sale. I thought they were about this price each though, not for the both? If that's the case... Nothing to see here :joy:

decent price but i reckon they lost something when moving up from the pixel art version, i`d prefer that one it looked great.

You can switch between both versions in one button click.
I agree with you totally though. The old school pixel art, especially in Le Chuck's Revenge is gorgeous.

Happy memories of playing the originals of these games. Getting stuck and waiting for the next edition of PC gamer to come out with a walk through guide. :sunglasses:

If you're a fan of the Monkey Island games, check out Thimbleweed Park! It's from the original creators of Maniac Mansion and Monkey Island 1 & 2. He was saying on twitter only yesterday that they've not managed to get the word out about the game to enough people yet! Very much feels like a Lucasarts classic but with a modern twist! :smile:
