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.

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”.

NARRATIVE ENVIRONMENTS from Disneyland to World of Warcraft
Essay Te x t Celia Pearce NARRATIVE ENVIRONMENTS From Disneyland to World of Warcraft In 1955, Walt Disney opened what many regard as the first-ever theme park in Anaheim, California, 28 miles southeast of Los Angeles. In the United States, vari- ous types of attractions had enjoyed varying degrees of success over the preceding 100 years. From the edgy and sometimes scary fun of the seedy seaside boardwalk to the exuberant industrial futurism of the World’s Fair to the “high” culture of the museum, middle class Americans had plenty of amusements. More than the mere celebrations of novelty, technology, entertainment and culture that preceded it, Disneyland was a synthesis of architecture and story (Marling 1997). It was a revival of narrative architecture, which had previously been reserved for secular functions, from the royal tombs of Mesopotamia and Egypt to the temples of the Aztecs to the great cathedrals of Europe. Over the centuries, the creation of narrative space has primarily been the pur- view of those in power; buildings whose purpose is to convey a story are expensive to build and require a high degree of skill and artistry. Ancient “imagineers” shared some of the same skills as Disney’s army of creative technologists: they understood light, space flow, materials and the techniques of illusion; they could make two dimensions appear as three and three dimensions appear as two; they understood the power of scale, and they developed a highly refined vocabulary of expressive techniques in the service of awe and illusion (Klein 2004). Like the creators of Disney- land, they built synthetic worlds, intricately planned citadels often set aside from the day-to-day bustle of emergent, chaotic cities or serving as a centerpiece of es- cape within them.

Explore a Change of Perspective in Virtual Reality
Rim: Explore a Change of Perspective in Virtual Reality Thesis Presented by Jiayu Liu to The College of Arts, Media and Design In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Game Science and Design Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts December 2017 1 Rim: Explore a Change of Perspective in Virtual Reality by Jiayu Liu ABSTRACT Player perspective is a vital and rudimentary component of game design. Perspective defines points of view (POV) and what the player as a particular character can both see and interact with. Perspective can greatly affect player agency in making decisions and getting feedback from the game world. However, the change in perspective and character embodiment as a part of player agency is rarely explored in video games. In the paper, Rim is introduced as an adventure spatial puzzle game in VR which uses the core mechanic of changing perspective as the principal form of player agency. 2 1. Introduction Player perspective is a vital and rudimentary component of game design. Perspective defines points of view (POV) and what the player as a particular character can both see and interact with. POVs convey visual information in distinctive ways that lead to a myriad of possibilities to perceiving and engaging with the game world [2]. However, despite its expressive capabilities, the option to change perspective and character representation during gameplay, with a few exceptions, is rare in video games. In some cases, changes of perspective take place in preset cinematic sequences and functionalities such as zooming-in/-out and rotating camera [5].

Lucasarts and the Design of Successful Adventure Games
LucasArts and the Design of Successful Adventure Games: The True Secret of Monkey Island by Cameron Warren 5056794 for STS 145 Winter 2003 March 18, 2003 2 The history of computer adventure gaming is a long one, dating back to the first visits of Will Crowther to the Mammoth Caves back in the 1960s and 1970s (Jerz). How then did a wannabe pirate with a preposterous name manage to hijack the original computer game genre, starring in some of the most memorable adventures ever to grace the personal computer? Is it the yearning of game players to participate in swashbuckling adventures? The allure of life as a pirate? A craving to be on the high seas? Strangely enough, the Monkey Island series of games by LucasArts satisfies none of these desires; it manages to keep the attention of gamers through an admirable mix of humorous dialogue and inventive puzzles. The strength of this formula has allowed the Monkey Island series, along with the other varied adventure game offerings from LucasArts, to remain a viable alternative in a computer game marketplace increasingly filled with big- budget first-person shooters and real-time strategy games. Indeed, the LucasArts adventure games are the last stronghold of adventure gaming in America. What has allowed LucasArts to create games that continue to be successful in a genre that has floundered so much in recent years? The solution to this problem is found through examining the history of Monkey Island. LucasArts’ secret to success is the combination of tradition and evolution. With each successive title, Monkey Island has made significant strides in technology, while at the same time staying true to a basic gameplay formula.

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.

Historic and Architectural Resources of Currituck County 1790-1958
NPS Form 10-900-a OMB No. 1024-0018 (8-86) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES CONTINUATION SHEET Historic and Architectural Resources of Currituck County, 1790-1958 Section __E___ Page __1 =================================================================================== Introduction “When Nature came to design the topography of eastern North Carolina,” wrote North Carolina historian Charles Christopher Crittenden in 1936, “she almost persuaded herself to create a great maritime center.”1 The interplay between water and land in Currituck is key to understanding the history and evolution of the county. Although one of the oldest in the state of North Carolina, the county has also been one of the most overlooked. Piecing together the history of the county is difficult. Many of the records pertaining to the early history of Currituck have been lost or destroyed. A courthouse fire in 1842, for example, destroyed a substantial body of records, including marriage records. As a consequence, much of the county’s past lives on as oral history; written accounts tend to be either personal reminiscences or a recounting of events that have been passed orally through the different generations of a family. The history of the county remains to be written. A Geographical Overview of the County The most northeasterly of the one hundred North Carolina counties, Currituck is a peninsula: the land is long and narrow, low and even. The county consists of a mainland 1 Charles Christoper Crittenden, The Commerce of North Carolina 1763-1789. New Haven: Yale University Press, 1936, p. 8. NPS Form 10-900-a OMB No.
