I disagree with Lysander. It's pretty awful. It's just not monkey islandish. Your wit won't help you with the sword fighting, "monkey insult" fighting is both timed & requires a pad & pencil because the correct come-back to "ook eek!" is "ook ook ak!"
The thing that really stopped me playing was the low-rate MP3s being used for the voices. It's horrible to emphasise with characters who sound like buzzing fuzzy crap unless they actually are Stephen Hawking.
The third one is much better than people say, though.
Edit: Wait, is Escape the 3rd one, the 2D one? Yeah, that's a good game. No, wait, it is the 4th one, the 3D. That's shit. HOW MANY DIMENSIONS ROBB??
