A little something for my english friends (and hopefully a lot of other people coming from search engines too ;)) – Tales of Monkey Island episode one walkthrough (Launch of the Screaming Narwhal). The game is so awesome that it fully deserves to be called “the new Monkey Island”.

Use the following walkthrough at your own risk, the game is fun, yet there are several places you could get hopelessly stuck. The walkthrough shows the shortest way of finishing the game, so you’ll miss a LOT of funny situations and dialogues.

So, off to Flotsam Island, where the wind always blows inwards… or does it?!

Please do not copy my work. Instead, feel free to link to it. Thank you!

The demise of LeChuck. Again.

Walk to mast.
Pick up voodoo recipe.
Walk up the stairs.

TASK 1: the bar brawl
Go to the docks (through the city to the left).
Examine sock on the clothesline.
Go back, talk to the glassblower until you get a U Tube.
Go to Club 41, open door.

monkey-scr1Task 2: the treasure

Go left.
Talk to Portly Pirate until he gives you a map.
Use the “Look, it’s Dark Ninja Dave!” phrase.
Pick up one of the pink dolls from the pile.
Use grogatini sword with action figure.
Get back to the city (Beach).
Use action figure with sword in vat.
Get back to the jungle, go left, go up.
Use map with wishing well (this is how you start “following the map” puzzle, got stuck here for a moment).
You need to follow the route that matches the sounds printed on the map (if you can’t really tell if the sound is generic or not, it means it’s the bird). If you stay close to the exit and can’t hear anything, try walking away a bit and coming back. I tried this puzzle several times and the route was always identical, but I can’t promise that it will be for you. A hint: if you follow the proper route, you get a “positive” sound effect on each screen, if you mess up, Guybrush comments on that and the whole puzzle is reset. You need to start over from using the map on the well. My route was: right (boar), right (monkey), up (bees), down (monkey), down (boar), up (bees), left (bird).
On the first screen of the puzzle, pick up pile of bombs.
Put ninja action figure on X marks the spot.
Get back to Joaquin D’Oro (use the “return to jungle entrance button” and go left).
Give map to Joaquin D’Oro.

Task 3: the ship

Go to Screaming Narwhal, try to board it via the plank.
Try to board it via the anchor chain.

Pick up unbreakable bottle breaker.
Go to the house to the right of Screaming Narwhal.

After the dialog comes the REALLY fun part.

The evil doctor’s plot
Use unbreakable bottle breaker with unbreakable bottle.
Walk to the beach.
Talk to crusty pirate in front of the courthouse until he gives you the ancient crystal.
Use eye of the Manatee with ancient scroll.
While you’re here, use the cheese with jail carvings (under the cell windows).
Walk to jungle entrance.
Go up.
Now comes the second map puzzle, much more difficult than before. I can’t promise your route will be the same. The cloud on the map means you need to examine the weather vane in your inventory and follow the arrow. Unfortunately the camera turns a bit while examining the vane, so I was not entirely sure where to go. Anyways, here is my route:
Use Hemlock’s map with altar (the screen trembles, this starts the puzzle. As before, the “success” sound and Guybrush’s comments mark the proper route, if you screw up, you need to start from the beginning).
Go down (bees).
Go left (monkey).
Examine ancient weather vane.
Go up.
Use flowers with wishing well.
Examine ancient weather vane.
Go right.
Go left (bees, yes, right up the path you just came from).
Use ancient weather vane.
Go left.
Run around the calendar until it glows green and the ground trembles (that was kinda tricky).
Use ancient weather vane.
Go up.
Use unbreakable bottle breaker with crystal nose.
Pick up weird door face.
Use pyrite parrot with nasal cavity.
Walk to dock.
Approach Marquis’ house.
Use the “PROOF” phrase.

monkey-scr3The wind whisperer
Use ancient tool with clamshell. (this opens up idols all over the island).
Use ancient weather vane with mysterious idol.
Click on mysterious idol.
Match faces on the weather vane and the idol.
Use ancient tool with clamshell when you are done. If the faces were matched correctly, the idol goes down and the cutscene kicks off.
Walk to the right (the map of the jungle appears).
Go to enigmatic idol.
Repeat steps from the previous idol.
When Guybrush makes comment about a missing nose, use flower pot with idol.
Finish matching, use ancient tool with clamshell.
After the cutscene go to the right.
Approach the strange idol, use ancient weather vane on it.
Use cheese on strange idol.
Finish matching.
Walk: right, right (you should be at the altar), right. If you get lost, make your way out of the jungle, enter it and go up, right.
Use the “King Louis” phrase.
(timed): Use U Tube with rifle.
Use messed up idol.
No way of putting the weather vane here, so you need to listen to the Marquis – if he makes a satisfactory (not a painful) sound, the part is in the right place. Yes, I was disturbed by this puzzle too.

The final showdown
Walk to the upper deck.
Use steering wheel.
(timed): Walk to the lower deck and fire the cannon (thus spilling the tar) before Winslow takes the wheel. You need to walk in front of the main mast, otherwise you will get stuck and have to repeat that puzzle.
Use map hanging on the quarter’s wall.
Talk to Winslow.
