Default TOMI Episode 1 on iPad Now!

.... But I'm a little hesitant to pick it up based on the lack of subsequent episodes from "Wallace & Gromit", "Sam & Max" etc...

Good point. I say wait until at least the second episode is released on the iPad, just so that you [probably] know that Telltale are committed to releasing the whole season on the iPad. By the way, will this be your first time playing 'Tales of Monkey Island'?

No, I've got it on the PC, so it would be a double dip for me - which I don't mind doing as I also have all of the "Sam & Max" seasons as well as "Wallace & Gromit" and I bought those releases for the iPad, but I did so under the impression that:

A). Penal Zone Ep 1 was going to be updated to fix the performance issues, and would be followed by the other eps, and,

B). Wallace & Gromit would also be followed up by the other chapters.

But - all that aside, I'll still be getting "BTTF" episode 1 on the iPad as well.... just 'cause it's cool....

Glad to see it on the store, but with a PC purchase and a PS3 purchase of the same game, I might have to pass. But it's certainly come as a nice surprise though. Kudos Telltale, hopefully you'll release the full season.

We're definitely planning the full 5 game series for iPad

I'm sorry. Given Telltale's track record of not releasing the full series on the iPad, I will not purchase anything until the complete series has been submitted and some reviews have come in indicating it is playable.

Default Not Playable

Hi,
at least for me monkey island tales 1 HD for iPad IS nice but not playable.
Can't find out how to use cutlass on the plants roots in the prolog.
There is no help that describes how the actions are done within the game, or am I just blind?

It's playable, that just not what you are supposed to do with the root.

No, he means to cut the roots off, which you use the cutlass for.

The question is not just what to do but how to do it.
How can I use things in my inventory on some objects in the scene. In the inventory I manage to combine stuff, yes, but I miss some icon for a use object function.

Sorry, I have not played TOMI on the computer before, to know what I can do in which way.

Wouldn't you just open the inventory, touch the item you want to use (which should select it) then touch what you want to use the item with.

or maybe you could try dragging the item out of the inventory onto what you want to use it with.

I don't have it for ipad this is just a guess at how it may work.

I'm guessing it would just work the same as 'The Devil's Playhouse' did on the iPad.

It would be nice if it would work like in Sam and Max, but here TOMI comes no menu of actions when I tap on cutlass in the inventory.

I can't speak to other series but I have actually played MI ep 5 on iPad, they're definitely coming.

iPaddy, to use inventory items on something in the environment, select it in your inventory and when you close it, that will be your active item. When you next select an item in the environment, it will use your active item on it.

Thanx Seher, I tried that before but somehow it works fine now for me.
Now the fun starts.

Sam and Max will be next, after finishing TOMI.
