	Is that Santino testifying against Gubrush in the photo?
	Comment by thatdude98 October 30, 2009, 2:26 pm

	I'm stuck.. I've gotten out of all the cases except for the nacho sauce burning and the petrified cat. Hints, anyone?
	Comment by amareus October 30, 2009, 2:40 pm

	Been looking forward to this release all month! I absolutely loved episode 3!
	Comment by jaingaurav October 30, 2009, 2:43 pm

	Hint on the petrified cat is very much appreciated. What am I missing?
	Comment by MalachorPirate October 30, 2009, 3:27 pm

	MalachorPirate, you may have noticed that the monkey is magnetic. Also that it can change the way the picture of Guybrush looks like, because it has metal in it. So, the monkey moves metal. In your notes, it clearly states that if the cat moves, the case is over. Figure the rest out. ;)
	Comment by amareus October 30, 2009, 3:47 pm

	hey, MalachorPirate and Amareus, take the hints/solutions elsewhere!
	Comment by monkeymonkey October 30, 2009, 5:12 pm

	p.s. YAAYYY EPISODE 4!!!!
	Comment by monkeymonkey October 30, 2009, 5:12 pm

	Another solid 4 hours of gameplay for me. The suspense is killing me (finish it and you know what I mean). Definitely the best episode so far (puzzles were challenging, writing very good, animations were superb this time around). Can't wait to play the last one and then all of them in succession. Short question to you Telltalees ... will there be a way of playing all episodes as "one big" experience on the retail disc later on? That would be great.
	Comment by r0ckarong October 30, 2009, 5:21 pm

	amareus, that just sounds insane... Can't wait to play it! :D
	Comment by DwarvenArchitect October 30, 2009, 5:22 pm

	Comment by sire166 October 30, 2009, 5:24 pm

	amareus fill up all your hot volcano cups with all the hot liquid you can find, pour some grease on the leg lamp, then mix and try different liquids on the leg and see if you can solve it
	Comment by sire166 October 30, 2009, 5:25 pm

	Does anyone have the link to the setup? I only have a code to unlock the game, so I get no link myself :(

	Comment by Anon October 30, 2009, 6:42 pm

	i was up really late playing this. Problem is the lighting don't seem very good on my pc turned up the brightness to max and still can hardly see some of the stuff. Maybe its just my pc. If anyone was wondering about the late thing well i leave in the uk its 2.10 am over here.
	Comment by bones2475 October 30, 2009, 7:11 pm

	STUCK!! Any idea what the sixth sense is (in the feast menu)?? Anyone?
	Comment by Anonymous October 30, 2009, 7:14 pm

	thx for the link. I could have tried this all day, not knowing that and to what the shortened the name ^^
	Comment by Soge October 30, 2009, 7:14 pm

	Wow. That was the best Monkey Island game yet! LOVE the twist ending :P
	Comment by PhoenixDirk October 30, 2009, 8:43 pm

	Excellent way to finish off the chapter, very much enjoyed it. A bit trickier compared to the other chapters imo, but all for the better. Looking forward to the finale... should be a blast...
	Comment by FrankHT October 31, 2009, 1:49 am

	It's been yet another great TOMI episode until I encountered a mean bug: I have just been cleared of all accusations and the Voodoo Lady has given me the map. Now I'm standing right in front of the jail. Whenever I begin to move, the game puts me in Le Chuck's cell whence there's no escape unless I start a conversation with my new best friend. Unfortunately, once the conversation has ended and I find myself in the correct location outside of the cell again, I'm still sent right back the moment I inch onward. Anyone else encountered and/or solved this clearly Voodoo-related loop?
	Comment by BobbinThreadbare October 31, 2009, 4:39 am

	Yeah, I'm also stuck in the evil "Loop of LeChuck". Haven't been able to find a solution to it yet, any ideas?
	Comment by Wessie October 31, 2009, 6:26 am

	SPOILER: sire166, use the leg lamp to attract and capture the moths at the voodoo lady's shack. Release the moths near stan. Then ask him about the lachuck doll, the glow will attract the moths to stan.
	Comment by Bandit October 31, 2009, 7:27 am

	@ Wessie: I uninstalled then reinstalled the application AND started a whole new game. I cleared Guybrush of all accusations in no time and am now safely beyond ye olde "Loop of LeChuck" (TM). My previous save states were of no use since they still contained the bug despite having reinstalled the TOMI chapter.
	Comment by BobbinThreadbare October 31, 2009, 7:31 am

	Woo, Earl Boen! Could you get him to redo the earlier LeChuck stuff, along with a higher quality audio patch for the earlier episodes? 3 and 4 had no problems, but 1 and 2 still sound like an early DOS talkie game. Anyway, the original performance as ghost lechuck in episode 1 was really terrible, hope you guys have the resources to fix this...
	Comment by Nukleon October 31, 2009, 7:48 am

	Got the same Loop of LeChuck bug. :D And my last manual save game is from the time I cleared Guybrush off the first accusation (for me it was D'Oro). :( Damn. So, is it likely that my "copy" is corrupted anyway, so that the uninstalling doesn't necessarily work? Should I download the whole game again?
	Comment by Acemaster October 31, 2009, 8:16 am

	I almost cried with the Guybrush/Morgan scene, it was so dramatic; Morgan dying and all. I hope she comes back for the ultimate episode. But then, I saw LeChuck's betrayal and Guybrush's downfall, it's really sad and really full of emotion, I wonder if Elaine won her swordfight with LeChuck. Nice plot climax and ending for the penultimate episode... really can't wait for the last one.

	ARE-YOU-CRAZY????
	Comment by gingerman October 31, 2009, 8:27 am

	@joshjola2008. You just ruined the ending for me. Thanks. @BobbinThreadbare Found a solution on another part of the forum, http://www.telltalegames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13103 You can download a save game from post #8, instructions are in the same thread.
	Comment by Wessie October 31, 2009, 10:19 am

	Joshjola2008, think before you post a comment like that, I have finished the episode already but a spoil like that ruins it all for those who haven't ....
	Comment by Greyweed October 31, 2009, 10:46 am

	Not as tricky as part 3 but a great variation in the puzzles love it .. thanx
	Comment by dertrippel October 31, 2009, 3:32 pm

	SPOILER You can't die in Lucasarts games!(?)
	Comment by killedkennedy October 31, 2009, 3:56 pm

	Spoiler! Well, I would have preferred more funny parts instead of the deaths. (Real) Dying is not too Monkey Island-ish imho.
	Comment by daswalker October 31, 2009, 4:02 pm

	AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!!!! WELL DONE TELLTALE !!!!!!!!!!! AUSGEZEICHNET!!!! I mean you finally found Earl BOEN to do the voice of LeChuck !!!!!!!!!!! THAT WAS AWESOME......... And again you know now that the next move MUST be a remake of the 1st part (Screaming Narwhal) with an overdub of Earl Boen's voice on the one of Adam Harrington........ IT IS MUNDATORY !!!!! Come on!!!!! I mena the History of Monkey Island has used some distinctive voices...... THEY CANNOT change..... Plus Stan's voice...... We need the old ones................... BUT truth be told, incredible job....except for that rubbing the green carpet thingamabob...... How did you come to think of that ???? I was hoping for some water-electro-shock???? not rubbing!!!! Anyway I look forward impatiently for the last......part!!!! UNHOLY THIS..... Oh , and something else.....Too much violence..... Stabbing, cutting arms, killing actors in the game, this stuff is way out of the Monkey Island theme..... There should be no sword killing or things like this...... The game is supposed to be fun, not create an Assassin's Creed (TM)!!!... Anyway these killings have left a bitter taste, nontheless.......
	Comment by Nikolis October 31, 2009, 4:55 pm

	@nikolis: If you go back to the lab you'll see the corpse disappeared, so a final death there is unlikely. And the other person who got stabbed to death is obviously not death. That aside, I didn't like this chapter. It was WAY too short and WAY too easy. The puzzles were dumb as hell, everything was too straightforward . Felt like there was only one path to follow and that it was being shoved down my throat. Nothing compares to the first chapter.
	Comment by lonesomefolly October 31, 2009, 8:54 pm

	not dead*
	Comment by lonesomefolly October 31, 2009, 8:54 pm

	Hellloooooo,Rise of the Pirate God,anyone?
	Comment by Darl November 1, 2009, 12:12 am

	Loved the puzzles in this episode, especially . But there were a few scenes where I thought....'This is not Monkey Island in the way it used to be'. The stabbing was a bit to much. But I'm relieved there wasn't blood flying around my screen... I'm a swashbuckling pirate....not a bloodthirsty one! All in all...a good episode!
	Comment by Rildo November 1, 2009, 5:04 am

	Whoho very nice chapter. Its a bit longer than chapter 3, that's very good. And some real plot development
	Comment by Jesse November 1, 2009, 5:12 am

	Just finished playing this episode. That was a real drama!
	Comment by Vhill November 1, 2009, 5:58 am

	pretty good. i very excite!! .... ok sorry Borat is little old...
	Comment by Kvasirr November 1, 2009, 7:08 am

	Sorry about that, but it was really so emotional that it had to posted. Did anyone notice that the "UNHOLY THIS" of LeChuck's is the same thing that Guybrush did back in Episode 1?
	Comment by joshjola2008 November 1, 2009, 8:43 am

	But then, I remember Guybrush in EFMI, "I can't die. I have an unbreakable 5-game deal with LucasArts." So we'll see.
	Comment by joshjola2008 November 1, 2009, 8:44 am

	No, I think it's great that Telltale made this part a little more rough than the others, it gives the feeling that there's serious shit going on even though it's still fun, just like the first games.
	Comment by Greyweed November 1, 2009, 9:08 am

	twitch Need....episode...Amazon...
	Comment by Anon November 1, 2009, 1:58 pm

	how do i get the shock desert bit. I think its got something to do with either desinges lab or club 41 but im so stuck
	Comment by bones2475 November 1, 2009, 3:36 pm

	I think it's good that it's not "Monkey Island the way it used to be" - adding new stuff to the series, keeping us guessing, it all maintains my interest anyway. SPOILERS It's also good to realize that LeChuck might be comical sometimes, but fundamentally he's a murderous pirate, and has been a murderous pirate since Secret of Monkey Island - we just haven't seen it up close till now. To put it another way, LeChuck would be the Barbossa type of pirate rather than the Sparrow type.
	Comment by Joseph November 1, 2009, 4:08 pm

	done the shock desert bit now thanks to the hint forums and now completed chapter 4 i had to use the hints just that once bah.
	Comment by bones2475 November 1, 2009, 4:18 pm

	i usally don't have to use hints at all by the way except for the stupid map pussle on chapter 1 lol.
	Comment by bones2475 November 1, 2009, 4:23 pm

	why?! noooo.... looks like we all know who the Pirate God would be... aaarggghh me' hearties!
	Comment by joer86 November 1, 2009, 8:22 pm

	Dam it too short.. I hope the don't stop on 5 chapters and keep going
	Comment by krutoileshii November 2, 2009, 12:00 am

	Well, hopefully this means I won't have to wait too much longer for it to come out on Wiiware
	Comment by sonicking2004 November 2, 2009, 10:58 am

	i need help to get the "SHOCK" part of the menu, any ideas?
	Comment by Adrian November 2, 2009, 11:52 am

	A bit different from previous chapters, but I liked it! I thought Guybrush has learened his lesson by now: "Never trust a demon pirate from heck!!!" But then again this IS Monkey island and I'm looking forward for the next one. I just don't want it to be the final chapter! I'm getting used to access this site every 30 min. when telltale anounces a new one!
	Comment by Girlbrush November 2, 2009, 12:36 pm

	@Adrian there is a point in the game that Guybrush gets "shocked" a lot. Look around.
	Comment by jaingaurav November 2, 2009, 3:36 pm

	this episode is been fantastic cant stop laing8D!!!!!!!! but indeed the puzzles are harder than the other ones, i have been making to mush tramp ¬//////0 Shayme on me.
	Comment by gilau November 2, 2009, 10:50 pm

	For anyone needing hints, feel free to visit the Monkey Island Hints part of our forum! We don't want spoilers littering our comments here!
	Comment by nikasaur November 3, 2009, 4:04 pm

	Agreed, never leave spoilers on a forum that people who haven't played it yet can read! Than again, I would just like you to notice the last two scentences of the walkthrough. i don't know about you, but to me that smells like a not-so-subtle hint to more monkey island episodes/games (appart from chapter 5 of course...) in the (near) future! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHA!
	Comment by nightsblood November 4, 2009, 5:30 am

	Do you really have to reinstall the game if you have the prison bug?
	Comment by Desperada November 4, 2009, 6:47 am

	Sigh Finished. And now????? I have to wait another month for the next one, ARRRRRRR!!!!!!
	Comment by maitri85 November 4, 2009, 11:27 am

	Is Monkey Island also coming to the iphone? I loved the release of part 1 on the iphone

	Yeah, I loved Monkey Island on my iphone!
	Comment by Krachttraining November 4, 2009, 12:35 pm

	BUMP...... Lovely to see everyone enjoying the new game. Now then, when exactly is episode 3 out on WiiWare.........
	Comment by nikki84 November 4, 2009, 12:36 pm

	Comment by ponii November 4, 2009, 2:36 pm

	Noticed there was a free eposide of wallace and gromit for download on the telltale site today. Never tried it but its to celebrate 20 years so i give it a go as is free and everything lol. 19 percent downloaded at the mo its a big ol boy.
	Comment by bones2475 November 5, 2009, 1:58 am

	Is there a time delay between release on this site and release and Amazon? Amazon has yet to get the 4th chapter but it's how I got the last 3 so I'm a bit committed to that method now. I also started the series recently so if there's been a delay I wasn't aware of it. frown
	Comment by draconic November 6, 2009, 10:17 am

	Really??? This Friday! I'm gonna get it ASAP!
