    If you're looking for a classic point-and-click adventure this won't disappoint. [Issue#195, p.103]
  2. The Secret of Monkey Island 2 SE: LeChuck's Revenge is a brilliant remake of a great classic. Beautiful graphics, beautiful sound and smooth controls make this game a valuable buy.
  3. The landmark script and puzzles override the bland artwork as the classic graphic adventure returns.

    The Special Edition doesn't offer any new gameplay, so its appeal may be limited if you've already been initiated. But if you've never seen a three-headed monkey, download this now.
  5. A genuinely funny and endlessly quotable game. [Sept 2010, p.94]
  6. If you've got opposable thumbs, a sense of humor, and a brain that you're not afraid to use, this puzzle-filled adventure is one well worth taking.
