Tales of Monkey Island
Chapter 5 Rise of the Pirate God

Another hour played, and that's that — I'm all caught up on Monkey Island!

I enjoyed Tales overall, even if it had some bits that could stand improvement (an over-reliance on cut scenes at times; some puzzles that were made tedious by having to trek back and forth). It's a shame Telltale didn't make a second season; in fact, I'm not sure why they didn't: Tales was a critical and commercial hit (it's said to have been their biggest financial success until Back to the Future); and, while they eventually went bankrupt, that was nine years later. Mysterious.

Anyway, at least now we have Return to look forward to. Can't wait!
