Return to Monkey Island: All Endings Explained
Ron Gilbert is one of the most influential figures in the early adventure video game scene. After joining LucasArts in 1983, then known as Lucasfilm games, Gilbert quickly began to rise the developer's ranks and was soon offered the opportunity to develop his own adventure game alongside artist Gary Winnick. This game became Maniac Mansion, a 1987 graphic adventure that's still beloved today. Gilbert went on to create the SCUMM Engine, which would go on to power his Monkey Island series and just about any other 1990s LucasArts adventure title. After a 30-year hiatus, Ron Gilbert is back, once again helming a Monkey Island game, this time fittingly titled Return to Monkey Island.

Nowhere is this more present than in the game's multiple endings, some of which are very heartfelt.
