Return to Mysterious Island

it's tedious! i feel like i missed a fair share of game content and puzzles, but i don't want to replay. my mouse was sooo slow at times... and options for solving puzzles were confusing. no sorting of the inventory drived me mad. i don't even know how i finished, felt too fast. I like puzzle games. They can look terrible, but if they have a compelling narration - i'm in love. No comprehensive story here, besides being based on Jules Verne (who I've never read) the graphics is great for its age, but you still have to troubleshoot, it's not running perfectly "out of the box"

So much nostalgia. This was one of my favorite adventure games when I was younger, and the reason why I am obsessed with survival games now (different genre, similar vibes). Worth playing if you like older puzzle games or if you have happy memories of playing it a few decades ago.

I love this game, so nostalgic! My favorite point-and-click/puzzle game of the 2000s!

Recommend not buying. Game will not run on WIN10 or WIN11 machine. If you fiddle with the files and compatibility mode you can get a windowed version to open, but it is a small window and cannot be resized.

Animations are entirely too fast, making the monkey section impassable. Was really excited to replay this classic favorite, only to be disappointed the game is broken.

Items disappear from inventory. Cannot resume a saved game. Refunding.
