Guybrush Threepwood recrache le sable de Monkey Island et affronte les regrets de sa vie de pirate, de l'agonie de sa femme aux menaces d'un milliardaire australien et d'ennemis non-morts. Un singe familier lui tape sur l'épaule, annonçant la plus grande bataille à venir dans ce quatrième volet de la légendaire série Monkey Island de graphic adventures. Le jeu propose une histoire cinématographique originale, gorgée de drame, de perroquets sociopathes et des plans machiavéliques d'un villain.
Les joueurs se coltinent des centaines d'énigmes à travers des dizaines de décors somptueusement rendus, défiant novices comme vétérans. Nouvelles blagues, calembours et insultes s'ajoutent à plus de singes que dans les trois opus précédents réunis. Cette aventure est faite pour les pirates parés aux casse-tête du Tri-Island Area.
Spitting the sand of Monkey Island from my mouth, I wondered 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 an Australian gazillionaire. If only I'd chosen a different path, LeChuck might still be dead and the Ultimate Insult might have remained a mystery. If I'd never picked up a sword, the grog-swilling pirates of the Tri-Island Area might be unthreatened by the 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 for the biggest battle of my swashbuckling life.
