The Adventures of Tango Rio is out: can a new Monkey Island-style point-and-click still win you over, and does English-only text put you off?

The Adventures of Tango Rio, a hand-drawn comedy point-and-click from the Italian studio Bean Adventure Agency (published by Dionous Games), came out on November 10, 2026 on Steam (Windows, Mac, Linux) and GOG. The studio openly lists Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle and Sam & Max Hit the Road as its models. It is €13.79 / $13.99 on Steam, or €11.03 / $11.19 with the 20% introductory discount until November 24, and it is in English and Italian only.

Questions for you:

• In 2026, does a new point-and-click that wears its LucasArts inspirations on its sleeve still excite you, or do you only replay the classics?
• Hand-drawn art, more than 50 locations, inventory puzzles: what makes or breaks a modern adventure game for you — the jokes, the puzzle logic, or the art?
• English and Italian only, no French: is that a deal-breaker for a dialogue-heavy comedy game, or is your English good enough for the puns?
• Do you get stuck and reach for a walkthrough, or is using a guide cheating in a point-and-click?
• €11.03 until November 24: buying now, waiting for player reviews, or keeping it for a later sale? Steam or GOG?
