I bought this yesterday because I was very excited about being able to play a Monkey Island game finally. I'm on a mac and I have yet to be able to find a Monkey Island game for me. So in that regard, I am happy I bought this. It's definitely laggy in places, and quite often I can not figure out for the life of me what a character just said. The movement will take some getting used to, but it isn't overly frustrating for me.
As far as the price, I am used to paying 40 bucks for a Jack Keane, or Ankh game, which are pretty much the only point and click adventure games I can find for the mac. I also appreciate not having to go to the store and buy a game. Sometimes I just want something to do NOW... and i factor that into the price of the game.
All in all, I don't regret the purchase, but the game could be better in a few aspects.

Wow! I've NEVER seen that! not for lack of looking either. I guess I just wasn't looking for the right thing! Thanks!
