	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Oliver Holmes The Guardian	"[It] pulls off the trick of looking backwards and forwards at the same time, reminding us that the point-and-click adventure will never really die (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Ryan McCaffrey IGN	"Return to Monkey Island expectedly comes packed full of smartly crafted puzzles, funny dialogue, and memorable characters. But as series creator Ron Gilbert returns to the series’ director’s chair for the first time since 1991, it unexpectedly offers a lot of heart, too. It is an adventure gamer’s delight."	POS
United States	Jay Peters The Verge	"I loved 'Return to Monkey Island' (...) The game is just filled with joy (...) And the story is surprisingly poignant; like catching up with that old friend, I was a little bit sad when it was over."	POS
United States	Justin McElroy Polygon	"Return to Monkey Island is yet another game in the Monkey Island franchise that makes only a slight effort to reflect the ever-shifting gaming landscape, while confidently clinging to the DNA that made it so beloved in the first place."	POS
United States	Jonathan Lee The Washington Post	"A swansong for golden age adventure games (...) a wonderful, heartfelt adventure game that made me laugh all the way through."	POS
