The Good
- Very strong puzzle difficulty balance and good overall length
- excels in graphic and sound areas (as do all Telltale games).
The Bad
- Interface not content to leave well enough alone
- writing not always razor-sharp
- frustrating prologue starts off on a weak note.
Our Verdict
Good
A solid adventure that is generally enjoyable, though it lacks enough polish or ambition to recommend without caution.
Can you really complain about the return of Guybrush? Well, yes, but this is still a fun and beautiful pirate adventure that should make any fan excited for what Telltale has in store for the rest of this series.
