GOG.com is now selling the Lucasarts classics, Maniac Mansion and Curse of Monkey Island.

Welp they did it, they have all the classic Lucasarts adventure games in thier library.

Well except 1, Escape from Monkey Island, but that is viewed as the worse or least worthy game in the series.

Just as a side note: that game has one of the best puzzles in the series... but it doesn't compensate the chaff in the rest of the game.

I like Maniac Mansion. I still play it on my Amiga from time to time, and pray it doesn't crash when the parcel gets delivered.

I heard a rumour that Manic Mansion in it's entirety was hidden as an easter egg in Day of the Tentacle. Is this true?

Curse of Monkey Island was actually the first adventure game I played as a kid that wasn't either from Humongous or an educational game. It'll be fun to revisit.

Yep! When playing as Bernard, go to Weird Ed's room and use the computer. It'll load up Maniac Mansion. This still works in the remake.

Yes, it's true, there is a complete and fully playable version of Maniac Mansion in Day of the Tentacle, both in the original and in the remaster. Not going to spoil where to find it tho (or you could just Google it)

Forsooth, 't appears I have been ninja'eth

Yay?

I really wish Atlus would start porting some of their games to GOG.
>_>

I'd also love to see 'Captain Claw' and 'Tigershark'.
