  • Cultural Imaginations of Piracy in Video Games
    FORUM FOR INTER-AMERICAN RESEARCH (FIAR) VOL. 11.2 (SEP. 2018) 30-43 ISSN: 1867-1519 © forum for inter-american research “In a world without gold, we might have been heroes!” Cultural Imaginations of Piracy in Video Games EUGEN PFISTER (HOCHSCHULE DER KÜNSTE BERN) Abstract From its beginning, colonialism had to be legitimized in Western Europe through cultural and political narratives and imagery, for example in early modern travel reports and engravings. Images and tales of the exotic Caribbean, of beautiful but dangerous „natives“, of unbelievable fortunes and adventures inspired numerous generations of young men to leave for the „new worlds“ and those left behind to support the project. An interesting figure in this set of imaginations in North- Western Europe was the “pirate”: poems, plays, novels and illustrations of dashing young rogues, helping their nation to claim their rightful share of the „Seven Seas“ achieved major successes in France, Britain the Netherlands and beyond. These images – regardless of how far they might have been from their historical inspiration – were immensely successful and are still an integral and popular part of our narrative repertoire: from novels to movies to video games. It is important to note that the “story” was – from the 18th century onwards –almost always the same: a young (often aristocratic) man, unfairly convicted for a crime he didn’t commit became an hors-la-loi against his will but still adhered to his own strict code of conduct and honour. By rescuing a city/ colony/princess he redeemed himself and could be reintegrated into society. Here lies the morale of the story: these imaginations functioned also as acts of political communication, teaching “social discipline”.

  • English with Guybrush Threepwood and the Secret of Monkey Island Learning English Grammar Through Computer Games at Swedish Junior High School Level
    English with Guybrush Threepwood and the Secret of Monkey Island Learning English grammar through computer games at Swedish junior high school level Author: Mikael Manneklint Supervisor: Ibolya Maricic Examiner: Christopher Allen Date: 8th June 2015 Subject: Language Didactics Level: Advanced level Course code: GO1304 Abstract The computer has been a part of the language learning since the 1950’s. It has had many roles in the classroom and the potential usage of it is ever changing and evolving. Today the computer is widely used around the world as equipment for entertaining and game playing. When it comes to game playing it has been confirmed that it can be very effective in teaching. This is also true for language learning. This study aims to investigate if a non-educational game, the Secret of Monkey Island, could be potentially used to teach English grammar to Swedish learners of English at junior high school, year 7. This is done through a comparison study where two groups of students receives different exposure to the target grammar followed by a test in order to establish to what extent the game can be used in inductive grammar teaching. The results of this study showed that the game in fact can be used as a tool for learning English grammar. However, the students who played the computer game did not reach the same level of learning outcome as the students who received traditional teaching. The study also indicated some differences in achievement between boys and girls where the boys favored game-based learning and the girls performed better after traditional teaching.

  • Ben There, Dan That! / Time Gentlemen, Please!
    Ben There, Dan That! / Time Gentlemen, Please! Even though Sierra and LucasArts gave up on adventure games around the turn of the century, there are still those who hold on to the belief that the genre is very much alive. But without the continuation of games like Monkey Island, Space Quest and Simon the Sorcerer, what we have are, mostly, legions of humorless entries with depressingly dry CG backgrounds, plus the occasional cartoonish adventure that tries to be funny but fails spectacularly. Former adventure creators still make some great work, of course. Tim Schaefer, of Grim Fandango, spent a long time working on Psychonauts and Brütal Legend, both of which were hilarious despite not being adventure games, while Telltale, formed with some of the other LucasArts staff, comes close to the glory days of the genre. But it‟s not quite the same. So it was more or less out of nowhere that a tiny group of Brits called Zombie Cow Studios brought out two of the funniest adventures since... well, since ever, perhaps. Ben There, Dan That! and its sequel, Time Gentlemen Please!, are both low budget hits made with Adventure Game Studio and have a graphical style most consistent with elementary school notebook doodles, but succeed tremendously because they‟re so brilliantly written. One could call it “The British version of South Park!” and that wouldn‟t entirely be wrong, but that‟s a glib summation of it. While both creations have uber low-fi visuals, subversive plotting, and more than just a bit of toilet humor, Zombie Cow‟s games replace South Park's libertarian cynicism with a self aware affection for adventure games, LucasArts in particular.

  • Monkey Island I, II
    Case History Prospectus: The Secret of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge Kang Hyun Han [email protected] Professor Lowood STS 145: The History of Computer Game Design February 12, 2002 Significance of This Topic LucasArts ruled the adventure game market in the early 1990’s. Titles such as The Secret of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck’s Revenge defined the genre with their simple point-and-click interface and humorous engrossing game world, setting the standard for countless games to follow. The success of these two games owe much to the innovation and imagination fostered by the unique design process at LucasArts and its business strategies; however, its recent sequels, The Curse of Monkey Island and The Escape from Monkey Island, did not reach the classic status of their previous installments. In addition, many similar games that imitated the first two games of the series couldn’t match their success either. Several factors have contributed to the success of the first two installments: groundbreaking interface, the state of the industry at the time, highly polished look and feel, and great humor. In the case study, I plan to describe the reasons that made the first two games set apart from the rest. Background Information In the early years, adventure games were text only. Using text for input and output, the player could look at objects to get their description, take objects and use them, and solve puzzles. Infocom produced many popular hits, such as the Zork series. In the mid 1980’s, a young Californian couple, Ken and Roberta Williams, founded Sierra-On-Line and produced graphical adventure games that allowed the player to move his character in a virtual graphic world.

  • Game Narrative Review
    Game Narrative Review Game Title: The Secret of Monkey Island Ryan Durand Platform: PC ENG410-B Genre: Graphic Adventure Narrative Review Initial Release Date: October 1990 Developer: Lucasfilm Games Publisher: Lucasfilm Games Designers: Ron Gilbert, Tim Schafer, Dave Grossman Review Author: Ryan Durand ([email protected], [email protected]) Overview The Secret of Monkey Island is a graphic adventure game that puts the player in control of Guybrush Threepwood on a humorous journey to become a pirate, rescue the woman he loves, and defeat an evil ghost pirate. The narrative is separated into four chapters, each showing the progression of Guybrush from wanna-be to swashbuckling savior, from the three trials of piratehood, through his journey to Monkey Island, and his eventual confrontation with his nemesis as he tries to rescue the woman he loves. While the game is laced heavily with jokes, the core narrative is strong, following Guybrush on the hero's journey. The humor of the plot draws people in but the symbolism used in the narrative makes the game memorable. The coherence of the narrative architecture of the game as can be seen throughout the game. For instance, the environments tie nicely to the alchemical elements of air, water, fire, and earth and their correspondence, respectively, to mind, emotion, spirit, and body, and many of the supporting cast fall easily into archetypal roles. People who believe that a strong narrative cannot be built on a comedic plot and comedic characters may be turned off by how much of the narrative is abstracted to the level of caricature for the sake of humor, but there are elements of strong narrative in spite of its emphasis on farce.

  • Game Narrative Review
    Game Narrative Review ==================== Game Title: Tales of Monkey Island Platform: Windows, PC, Wii Genre: Graphic Adventure Release Date: 2009 Developer: Telltale Games ( in collaboration with LucasArts) Publisher: Telltale Games Game Writers: Mark Darin Michael Stemmle Sean Vanaman Author of this review: Vicki Smith School: Guildhall at SMU All images taken from 1up.com. 1 Overview In this, the fifth installment of the well-loved Monkey Island series, the intrepid Guy Threepwood sets sail for more wacky piratical adventure. The scene opens on the high seas, as Threepwood battles his arch-nemesis, the ghost pirate LeChuck, who has once again kidnapped Threepwood’s wife Elaine. Having used sub-standard root beer, Threepwood botches a voodoo ritual to make a Cursed Cutlass of Cthulu. In the subsequent explosion, he loses Elaine, changes LeChuck into a human being, and unleashes a terrible disease upon the local pirate community. Over the five distinct game chapters, Threepwood searches the Bay of Melange for his wife and for a cure. Guided by the ever-mysterious Voodoo Lady, he outwits mad scientists, sweet-talks manatees, and gains street cred with a tribe of androgynous mer- folk. True to the Monkey Island tradition, the game’s many micro-stories brim over with this light-hearted silliness. Under the humor, however, an unexpectedly dark monomyth unfolds. The final chapter includes a trip to the Underworld pulled straight from Greek legend; it culminates in a battle with a dark god, self-sacrifice, and the bittersweet triumph of love. Characters • GUYBRUSH THREEPWOOD: When the world first met Guybrush Threepwood in 1990, he was just a wannabe pirate in love, a lanky towheaded youth with a silly name and a knack for getting into trouble.

    Captain LeChuck - Monkey Island Fotis Mint VIEW IN BROWSER updated 15. 7. 2019 | published 9. 2. 2019 Summary LeChuck is a fictional character in the Monkey Island series of graphic adventure games. Created by Ron Gilbert for LucasArts, LeChuck was introduced in The Secret of Monkey Island, and is the chief antagonist of the series. Gilbert drew on aspects of the characters in the 1988 novel On Stranger Tides for his concept for LeChuck. An undead pirate captain, LeChuck is obsessed with pursuing the affections of the series' heroine, Elaine Marley, and exacting revenge upon protagonist Guybrush Threepwood, who is responsible for consistently thwarting his plans and on some points he is depicted as being Guybrush's brother. LeChuck is not limited to one incarnation; across the series, the character has been depicted as a ghost, a zombie and a demon among other forms. While sometimes gullible and naïve, LeChuck is a powerful and intelligent villain, making extensive use of voodoo magic in his megalomaniacal plans. The character was very well received by video game critics.

  • Monkey Island Location
    Monkey Island jumpchain v1.01 = *Classy Caribbean Music go!* (In glorious MIDI) Welcome to a very different version of the Caribbean that you may know. Here, piracy is an ever- present facet of life. Mostly because it seems like everyone and their grandmother calls themselves one. Some are just weekend pirates or still carry badges from when they were Cabinboy Scouts. The point is, there's a lot of piracy going on here. Pirate-themed attractions, a pirate-centric economy, hell, stick 'pirate' onto the end of most any form of government like 'anarcho-piracy' and you'll probably find a governor running on that platform against the pirate democrats. Thankfully it's a very silly sort of pirate-infested Caribbean. Things are actually quite relaxed here, despite the constant yet almost friendly exchanges of cannonfire and insults. You'll arrive in this world at the same time that Guybrush Threepwood™ meets with the Pirate Leaders of Melee Island and begins the Three Trials needed to become an official pirate. From there he'll go on to discover great and terrible secrets, find love, and earn semi-eternal renown for slaying the dread pirate LeChuck. Repeatedly. That guy just refuses to stay dead. Yeah, there are ghosts. A few monsters, mysteries, and voodoo. Don't worry so much about the last bunch, they're unionized professionals. You could enjoy a nice, safe life on one of the islands and be a strictly armchair pirate, but where's the fun in that? = Your age and sex are free to choose, as piracy encompasses a highly varied demographic.
