And if you already have Launch of the Screaming Narwhal you can get another game instead.  I got The Great Cow Race.  Still need to finish Out From Boneville.

Telltale already spammed me first thing in the morning. So I got the free game, and I'll download it later if I ever get time.

Man, only played up to the point where I talk to the journalist guy. This pisses me off so so so so much.

NOTHING I choose when it comes to conversation has ANY affect on what's said. They're all variations of the same thing and worse, they don't even variate after I choose them! He says the same things no matter what I pick!

They did that in the other monkey islands, but only when it was really funny. Not so here.

"Play like a pirate." I see what they did there. Clever.

As an fan of the series from the beginning.. I'm hesitant to play this.

What have you got to lose?  If you don't like it you can say everything Yahtzee did about it and ignore it.  If you do like it you've got a new game in a series you're a fan of.

OHHH yeah, they were the masters of that

Voodoo Priestess: "Would you like to see some paper voodoo dolls the children made?"

Choices (I don't remember them so I am making them up)
-No
-Please god no!
-Is there anything I'd hate more?
-Not if you were the last overweight crazy voodoo priestess living in a swamp in the world!
-*Scream*

Picking anything gets you

I have a feeling this might only be for today, since you have to log in to play the game.

Ustxu Iceraped the Frigid Crystal of Slaughter was a glacier titan. It was the only one of its kind. A gigantic feathered carp composed of crystal glass. It has five mouths full of treacherous teeth, enormous clear wings, and ferocious blue eyes. Beware its icy breath! Ustxu was associated with oceans, glaciers, boats, and murder.

If it is, I'll launch a boycott of Telltale Games. Luckily though, I just think the logging in is just a way of online verification, to ensure that you did in fact download this game legally.
