There is a blowfish nearby that inflates itself and exhales. Ante Piece: When trying to dive to the bottom of the seafloor, Guybrush halts at the halfway mark saying he can't climb further because he'd need to climb back up to breathe.Guybrush resolves to go with her find it. And the Adventure Continues: As Guybrush finishes telling his story to his son, Elaine tells him she found the map to the treasure of Mire Island.Everyone you ask will have a different idea. It changes with time and the person telling it. It's not like a rock or a banana, it's like a story. Guybrush: There isn't any one answer to what the Secret is. Perhaps, as Guybrush tells his son in one of the possible dialogue choices at the end of the game: Was Guybrush really just an over-imaginative theme park visitor (and/or flooring inspector)? Is the world of Monkey Island actually real? Or does the truth lie somewhere in-between? Both endings, the various epilogue scenes, and other context clues all imply one of these is true to varying extents, but none of the endings and epilogues can be truly considered "definitive". This also applies to the rest of the series, much less Return itself.The presence of both his son and Elaine does hint at part of it being real, though even that might be in doubt, especially since there are both Multiple Endings and multiple Stingers depending on your choices at the end of the game, obfuscating the truth even further. Ambiguous Situation: Since Guybrush is telling the story to his son who likes "silly endings," or "weird endings," it's left up to the player exactly how much of the ending is fictional.All in the Manual: While Guybrush's son is never mentioned by name by any character, we see on the script and credits that his name is Boybrush.

THE SECRET OF MONKEY ISLAND LANGUAGE CHANGE SERIES
Guybrush must now navigate a world both familiar and not in an effort to definitively answer the question that's hung over the whole series since its inception: What IS the Secret of Monkey Island, anyway? Hip, young pirates led by Captain Madison have taken over as pirate leaders, Mêlée Island, now under the governorship of former Sword Master Carla, has taken a turn for the dire due to the government owing Madison immense amounts of interest, Black Magic has overtaken voodoo as the mystic art of choice, causing the Voodoo Lady's business to suffer, and Stan, everyone's favorite businessman, has been arrested for vague "marketing-related crimes". However, he's broken out of it when rumors start floating that LeChuck has found the Secret's location and is going after it! Not wanting to get beaten to the punch and looking to relive the glory days, Guybrush sets off for Mêlée Island to get his own expedition going - but things have changed a lot in his years-long absence. Many years after his last battle with the zombie pirate LeChuck, Guybrush Threepwood, Mighty Pirate , is in a bit of a slump: his true love, Elaine Marley, has been focused on running an organization to combat scurvy cases in pirates, and the fact that he never found out what the Secret of Monkey Island really was has been eating away at him for some time now.

Return to Monkey Island is the sixth game in the Monkey Island saga, announced on April 1st, 2022 by series creator Ron Gilbert, marking his return to the helm three decades after his last game at LucasArts.
