One of the greatest classics on the Amiga. It’s the story of a young boy with an unpronounceable name who dreams of becoming a pirate. He’ll have to face absurd trials, gather a crew, acquire a ship, before confronting the ghost of the fearsome pirate, LeChuck…
The atmosphere is fantastic, the puzzles inventive, and the dialogues incredibly funny. The point & click interface (clicking on verbs, objects, and the surroundings to solve puzzles) turns out to be incredibly easy to use, and it’s “practically” impossible to die. That doesn’t make it an easy game, though.
