Escape from Monkey Island is a computer adventure game developed and released by LucasArts in 2000. It is the fourth and most recent game in the Monkey Island series, following the successful games The Secret of Monkey Island, Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge and The Curse of Monkey Island. Production was headed by Sean Clark and Michael Stemmle who had previously worked on Sam & Max Hit the Road.

The game centers on the pirate Guybrush Threepwood, who returns home with his wife Elaine Marley after their honeymoon, to find her erroneously declared dead and her office of governor up for election. Guybrush must find a way to restore Elaine to office, while uncovering a plot to turn the Caribbean into a tourist trap, headed by his archnemesis LeChuck and Australian co-conspirator Ozzie Mandrill.

The game was made with Sean Clark and Michael
Stemmle in the lead, both of them having worked on previous LucasArts adventure titles. Michael Land provided the soundtrack once more. EMI was LucasArts' last adventure game. It was also the second and last game to use the GrimE engine, which was upgraded from its first use in Grim Fandango.

Easter Eggs

Play Monkey Invaders
Fully complete your Monkey Kombat table (available by pressing R2 in Monkey Kombat) for each Monkey Stance and you will unlock the hidden game Monkey Invaders.

Secrets

Combinations for Monkey Kombat
If you press and hold R2 while in Monkey Kombat, a screen pops up that shows the combinations of buttons to change to each stance. It doesn't have the name of the stance though, it only has a picture of what the stance looks like. Now you don't need to spend time writing down all the combinations and looking at the paper for every move!

Extra Ending Scene
To get an extra scene, simply complete the game and leave the game alone when the credits come on. If you skip the credits, you don't get the extra scene.

Play Murrayball
At the Palace of Prostheses, use the filing system to look up the name Ryan J. Danzwithwolves (You must do this before looking for the No-Nosed Man). After that, check the Bonus Stuff menu in the Options section. Murrayball will be one of the choices.
