Originally released in 1990 for EGA DOS computers, a couple months later for VGA, and in 1991 for the Amiga and many other machines like the ST. Here we show off the Amiga version, which combined a bit of the EGA version with the VGA version, making it a unique port. It routinely makes it to the very top of many places best Amiga games lists. It was ported to the Amiga by LucasFilm themselves in-house, making this an American NTSC game meant to be shown in a complete 4:3 aspect ratio, as seen here. My review for the Secret Of Monkey Island!
