The game features a frame story that continues from the ending of LeChuck's Revenge, while the primary narrative is set after Tales of Monkey Island and follows Guybrush's journey to finally find the secret of Monkey Island. Return to Monkey Island takes place on fictional islands in the Caribbean around the Golden Age of Piracy, as with previous games of the franchise. The game also includes a simplified mode called "casual mode" for less experienced players. The game includes a hint system designed to discourage players from looking for walkthroughs online and make sense "in the fantasy" of the game. The inventory uses a drag and drop interface to easily use and combine items and the interface has been designed to work with controllers or mice. Tooltips over screen hotspots guide the player's actions: when the cursor is moved over an interactive zone of the scene, a brief phrase appears, suggesting what action Guybrush will take. The user interface is different from previous 2D Monkey Island games. The player controls the pirate Guybrush Threepwood, who sails the seas and visits islands. This can be done by exploring locations, talking to non-player characters to acquire information, collecting items and using them at the right time.
