The Legend of Monkey Island @legendofmi.com · 15/09/2026Phatt Island’s waterfall in Monkey Island 2 is one of those pixel art scenes that still holds up decades later, especially with the palette cycling.

The Legend of Monkey Island @legendofmi.com · 08/09/2026The Curse of Monkey Island’s opening shot, Guybrush adrift in a bumper car, is still one of adventure gaming’s best intros.
