Tales of Monkey Island Hints
What is this "Treasure Hunt" game I see on the main menu?
1 of 3: It's a little minigame based, frankly, on the most irritating part of the actual game: following maps through the jungle.
2 of 3: You can play the game any time you want by clicking on the "Treasure Hunt" button on the main game screen. This puts you down in the jungle with a new and simple map. Follow it the same way you did the others to find an X in the sand; dig it up to get an idol with an odd name.
3 of 3: The game then gives you the option to close the game and go to the game's website to see what you've won. At the simpler levels, it's things like wallpaper and avatars; at the higher levels, it'll be things like free games from Telltale, according to the website. Personally I gave up after the first item or two, but have at it if it floats your boat.
