Incredible opening page truly loyal to the spirit of the Monkey Island series complete with the cloudy background, Murray and the green spit! Excellent graphic job!

Looks very good. But the bar on the left side doesn't match with the main image. They don't line up right.

The colors are nice, but the background green image doesn't look good. Should be removed.

Not a big gaming fan, but this site is very nice and looks like a good gaming website.

Easy to navigate through, and nice color scheme. Links work good. And easy to load.

The Scumm Bar is one of the pioneer sites of a thriving community of monkey island fans, and it has never looked better thanks to the expert artwork. It spawned a chat channel and was the inspiration for over 500 other sites, the most famous being The International House of Mojo where the bar is now hosted. Even today, Skyfox, the owner, still updates the site, and it has more games than you can shake a stick at, with nice little quizzes and even a wordsearch. Definitely worth a look, especially for fans of the superb Monkey Island series.
