? In the 90s, developer LucasArts had an unprecedented run of hit games which asked players to solve puzzles and outtalk opponents in worlds where a quick mind was a much greater asset than a quick trigger finger. 90s games showcased a fantastic sense of humour, intricate storytelling techniques and strange worlds full of indelible characters. Now, with a new Monkey Island game on the horizon, it seems like a great opportunity to revisit those classic games and see what they can teach us about improv. We'll look at character creation, new ways to interact with an audience, creating puzzles on the fly and episodic storytelling.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
