There’s a new 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Monkey Island on the way more than thirty years after the first game. What 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:was thought toꩵ be an April Fools' joke actually turned out to be 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:a very real sequel coming from Monkey Island creator, Ron Gilbert. Return to Monkey Island will take place after the events of Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge, and it'll arrive later this year. With so much time between the initial release and the coming sequel, Gilbert has taken it upon himself to set the record straight regarding some aspects of the Monkey Island franchise.

Threepwood makes his return in Return To Monkey Island, which will apparently 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:feature an easy mode that will simplify the game's puzzles. That'll be a big help to younger players and older ones that never really liked the poi✃nt-and-click adventure genre, but would love to see Threepwood's antics.
