After acquiring the legal deeds and returning to the manor, Guybrush and Elaine discover that Charles L. Charles is really the shape-shifting Demon Pirate LeChuck, having been freed from his ice prison and seeking the Ultimate Insult. As Elaine continues her campaign, Guybrush searches the Jambalaya and Knuttin Atoll islands and recovers the pieces of the Ultimate Insult. Upon returning home, he is ambushed by the newly elected governor LeChuck and Ozzie Mandrill, who steal the pieces from him. The two villains are revealed to be working together, with Ozzie to rid of all pirates and turn the Caribbean into a resort and LeChuck out of debt to Ozzie for freeing him from his icy tomb and to use the Ultimate Insult to break Elaine and marry her. Feeling they might need Guybrush as a hostage, the two dump him on Monkey Island.
Despite temporary discouragement, Guybrush sets about making his escape. He learns the art of Monkey Kombat from the "monkey prince of Monkey Island" and, upon restoring the hermit Herman Toothrot's memory, discovers that the old man is actually Elaine's missing grandfather, having contracted amnesia twenty years prior due to being pushed into a whirlpool off the coast of Australia by Ozzie. After constructing an even bigger Ultimate Insult, Guybrush discovers that the colossal monkey head statue of the island hides a giant pilot-able monkey robot. He reactivates the Mecha and powers it and Herman and the island's monkeys join him in piloting it. With the robot, Guybrush manages to disable an Ultimate Insult amplifier made by Ozzie before returning to Mêlée. During this time, Ozzie has managed to capture Elaine and assemble the Ultimate Insult. When it appears to fail due to the lack of the amplifier, LeChuck takes matters into his own hands and possesses a statue of himself he had built shortly after his gubernatorial victory. Ozzie uses the Ultimate Insult to take control of LeChuck's statue form and engages Guybrush's monkey robot in Monkey Kombat. During the duel, Guybrush performs repeated ties, allowing Elaine to escape and causing LeChuck to smack his head in exasperation, crushing Ozzie and destroying the Ultimate Insult. LeChuck explodes. Guybrush and Elaine are reunited and Grandpa Marley resumes being the governor of Mêlée Island, so that the couple can go back to being pirates.
The game was met with a generally favorable reception. The gameplay received criticism for its interface and the difficulty of keyboard or joystick control as compared to mouse controls. The "Monkey Kombat" was also criticized, with the GameSpot review stating that it was the single biggest problem in Escape from Monkey Island.[43] Another reviewer speculated that the designers presumably figured that combining insult fighting, cute monkeys, and a Mortal Kombat spoof would work well, but it did not.[44]
"Spitting the sand of Monkey Island from my mouth, I began to wonder if the life of a mighty pirate was all it was cracked up to be. I'd ignored recent events that should have been warning shots across the bow of my soul, from my wife's brush with death to the anti-pirate ramblings of Australian gazillionaire Ozzie Mandrill. If only I'd chosen a different path, LeChuck might still be dead, and the mystery of the Ultimate Insult might have remained an enigma. If I'd never picked up a sword, the grog-swilling pirates of the Tri-Island Area might be unthreatened by the twin forces of gentrification and demonic heckfire. If only . . . suddenly, the hairy finger of a familiar monkey tapped me on the shoulder. It was time. Time to stop LeChuck (again). Time to make the world safe for pirates. Time for the biggest battle of my swashbuckling life."
After returning to Mêlée Island from Lucre Island Guybrush has to find where the ultimate insult is, but to do that he needs a strange blue item. Things on the island changed since he was last here, such as the Scumm Bar is no longer the Scumm Bar. Ozzie took control of it while Guybrush was out in Lucre. After finding that the ingredients are on Jambalaya Island he sails there with the crew and has to find a Silver Monkey Head, a copper hat, and a golden man. Once all of the ingredients are found Guybrush can construct the ultimate insult.
As dangerous as it is to criticism, it's all too easy to go off about the endless merits of this installment. Going for the full 3D approach this time, Escape from Monkey Island uses the Grim Fandango engine with a bit more shine. Instead of the blocky days of yore or the flat (yet extremely well drawn) feel of the more recent Curse of Monkey Island, this is a fully rendered, lush and solid world of comic characters and stylish backdrops.
There's also a marvelous sound design and -- oh yes -- voice acting that is difficult to dismiss. From friendly island rhythms to atmospheric, crashing waves to, uh, lots and lots of monkeys, the music and sound effects are both non-intrusive and impressive. Remember when designers didn't care about voice acting at all? Apart from, say, Dragon's Lair, the most gamers used to hope for was a comprehensible human who could string two English words together without stumbling over soap opera airs or phone book lucidity.
Ah, the story. Let's be brief, shall we? Here are the basics: Threepwood and his new wife Elaine return to the Tri-Island Area only to find them both presumed dead and Elaine's status as governor in jeopardy. With encroaching "corporatization" of the pirate islands, proboscis-challenged saboteurs named Pegnose Pete, a quest to find the true heritage of the Marley family name and a throng of dueling monkeys, the narrative flows from absurdity to (relative) complexity with the knowing wink of true, pun-filled wit.
Caught up? Good, because one can't speak about Escape from Monkey Island's story without nailing the only major component wrong with this installment: the puzzles. Sure, most of the puzzles are both fair and challenging but sometimes the game's humor is its own downfall. For example, while it may be funny for some to solve a satirical bout of "Monkey Kombat" far into the game, the obstacle is a test of memorization and repetitiveness, not user ingenuity. Or, for that matter, hurdles like a deplorable monkey "machine code" puzzle that reeks far more of The 7th Guest-type logic than an honest-to-goodness brainteaser.

Description: Our non-chronological exploration of LucasArts adventure games continues with an episode all about the legendary developer's final entry in the genre: Escape from Monkey Island. Unfortunately, EMI ended this era of LucasArts with a whimper, as the clunky 3D interface and questionable puzzles make Guybrush Threepwood's Y2K adventure feel more like a voodoo curse than a barrel of monkeys. On this episode, join Bob Mackey and Nina Matsumoto (Thimbleweed Park cover artist and designer at Fangamer) as the two examine this unloved entry in the Monkey Island series to find out what went wrong.
