Remi Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Just for the hell of it I started messing with cleaning up the MI2 hint guide maps (all linked below). The most interesting one to me is the map of the Dinky tunnels, which features an additional room. It amuses me that Guybrush was a literal foot away from falling into a room full of unobtainable wealth.

Blondebeard Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Thanks for sharing Remi! I had never seen this as I only have the MI2 from the white label double pack. 59 minutes ago, Remi said: For the rest of the maps: Scabb Booty Phatt Those are the maps that will be included on the reverse side of the Monkey Island Anthology mini-posters. I was wondering where they were from, now I know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderPeel2001 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Unobtainable wealth, the worst kind of wealth. It also implies that Big Whoop was actually treasure... it's just Guybrush slightly missed the mark. Probably just a joke for the hint book though.

Lagomorph01 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Wow, I never saw these! Thanks! The extra room seems to be there just to poke fun at Guybrush. And fun at Guybrush’s expense is the best kind of fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laserschwert Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I've cleaned up all the maps as well. They'll be used in the LRG box. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 All these illustrations are so dang good. I love these maps! Imagine how Mêlée Island would look drawn like this... Interesting, on Scabb Island, there is no dock for Captain Dread's ship. There's just his house. Miscommunication or were the maps drawn super early in production?

Udvarnoky Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I used to bring the MI2 hint book with me on road trips to read in the back of the car. And I'm still waiting for someone to track down Jo ' Captain Tripps' Ashburn and ask him how much he wants to write a narrative walkthrough for TMI and complete the set. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Yeah, it's well written. The end of the Monkey 2 hint book is quite chilling. Quote With the doll in one hand and the syringe in the other, I waited for LeChuck. The very instant he appeared before me, I used the syringe with the doll. The effect was immensely gratifying. LeChuck was gone for good. My parents were very much alive. And life seemed as happy and carefree as a child's Sunday visit to an amusement park... ...at least for the moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vainamoinen Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Damn those lineart island maps are great. I think I'll make some for Return to Monkey Island. 😇 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
