To share the adventure with other humans and to hear hints from them is more satisfying to some than a prebaked automated answer.

Don't remember that part, any specific thing to do to trigger it or was it just late π

I solved it but can't share apparently π I beat #Mojole #194 and all I got was this stupid t-shirt. 5/6 π€π€π€π€π€ ππ€π€ππ€ π€π€π€π€π€ π€ππ€π€π πππππ https://funzone.mixnmojo.com/Mojole/ sharing feature seems broken in Firefox. Works with Chrome

Regarding that puzzle, what WAS the puzzle actually? I feel like I solved it by accident.

Can you retroactively add an option for 0 times?

I somehow made a connection to Stan's toothbrush and tried to break in.

Once, because I didn't find the Bite of a Thousand Needles π

Return to Monkey Island π¨GAME-WIDEπ¨ Spoiler Chat
Gins replied to Jake's topic in General Discussion
One of the best things is, that the real MI3a was never made, so now we have a real addition to the mythos from the old team and the speculation of what could have been in in the 90s is still there. We now have two exciting paths to take us back to the theme park whenever we want. We are like the chums, a club of people telling each other stories. I think that is worth so much more than a definitive answer.- 703 replies

Return to Monkey Island π¨GAME-WIDEπ¨ Spoiler Chat
Gins replied to Jake's topic in General Discussion
I was kind of expecting to end up in the alley in the end of the game. During the cutscenes with LeChuck and Lila I saw the door and was crossing my fingers that it's not the end yet. I was in denial. Then walking through the door, indeed leading to the alley, simultaneously with Guybrush, I thought, no! Not yet!- 703 replies

Return to Monkey Island π¨GAME-WIDEπ¨ Spoiler Chat
Gins replied to Jake's topic in General Discussion
"Dark Magic" is very similar to hacking via social engineering. You spy personal information and can use it to guess a "password" to gain information or to impersonate somebody by "logging in" as them. I'd not be surprised if that inspired it.- 703 replies

Throwaway lines and gags in MI games, that actually weren't
Gins replied to Redbeard_1973's topic in General Discussion
In the end he also told Boybrush that he liked the ending of "Monkey Island 2" so much, so he figured he'd like another ending just like it for Return. -
I wish there was a non-obvious/hard way to make everybody happy while the obvious/easy way would leave the current trail of destruction, like with Wally. E.g. give the Xyzzy sign to Herman and have Elaine rescue you instead. Or somehow not destroy the Mop Tree or treat the crown with more respect. It could add a layer to the game and replayability, and a kind of dynamic difficulty. Like the optional puzzles in the intro.

Not sure if this is the right place, but since Vichyssoise was mentioned: When I was younger I found it cruel to put the rat into a boiling soup. Later I found out that Vichyssoise is a cold soup and was relieved. Then realized that Vichyssoise is only _served_ cold, but of course cooked before. And the Cook was still adding potatoes π’

When entering this thread, the name on my mind was also Lila, but I'll have to think a bit more about the others. I think the connection between Dee and Lila makes sense as well because she turns the Guybrush/LeChuck relationship into a triangle, same as Dee does to Boybrush and Chuckie. Also Delilah is a name, and both Dee and Lila are short for it, like Chuckie to LeChuck. What does it all mean? π

Throwaway lines and gags in MI games, that actually weren't
Gins replied to Redbeard_1973's topic in General Discussion
I'm wondering if all of the substitutions Guybrush uses, in particular for Voodoo, could be the reality of the make-belief nature of the world bleeding through, since I think they are not explained in game but sound just like a child retroactively justifying a foul winning move to their playmates with child logic. ("I can't find a pressed skull but to continue playing I'll just revise the reality of my made up world to make the jolly roger work.")
