| |
| '''''Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge''''' was the second adventure game in the [[Monkey Island series|''Monkey Island'' series]] by [[Lucasfilm Games|LucasArts]]. It used the SCUMM interpreter.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Plot==
| |
| The plot of this game was darker than the first, which was reflected in the music and the atmosphere of the game.
| |
|
| |
| After the dreaded pirate Captain LeChuck is raised from the dead by his henchman Largo LeGrand, Guybrush Threepwood searches for Big Whoop, a treasure with powers that can get rid of LeChuck for good.
| |
|
| |
| ==Development==
| |
| It was developed in a version of SCUMM that allowed it to have a new inventory system with icons for items. This version was later used in ''[[The Secret of Monkey Island]]'' in its [[VGA]] [[Compact disc|CD]] release.
| |
|
| |
| It was also the last game by LucasArts to be made by all three of the original creators of ''Monkey Island'', [[Ron Gilbert]], [[Tim Schafer]], and [[Dave Grossman]]. However, Dave Grossman would later make ''[[Tales of Monkey Island]]'' at [[Telltale|Telltale Games]] with input during the early brainstorming sessions from Ron Gilbert. Ron Gilbert and Dave Grossman would also later make [[Return to Monkey Island]] at Ron Gilbert's [[Terrible Toybox]] studio.
| |
|
| |
| ==Versions==
| |
| The original version was released in December 1991 and had [[EGA]] and VGA modes. The original version had an easy mode. This mode was disabled in the version included in the 1997 ''[[Monkey Island Madness]]'' compilation CD and in the ''Special Edition''.
| |
|
| |
| The ''Special Edition'' was released on July 7, 2010, and had new high-definition graphics, music performed with live instruments, and voice acting. The VGA version of ''Monkey Island 2'' is accessible in the ''Special Edition'' at the press of a button. The original data files can also be extracted to be used in [[ScummVM]].
