Amazon’s Prime Gaming Offers Free Select LucasArts Classics

While new chapters or remakes would be great; it is nice to see the classics get some love.

Amazon’s Prime Gaming is amping up the nostalgia this summer by offering Amazon Prime members a selection of free classic LucasArts games for PC. On the first of every month, beginning today through September 1, Prime members can play iconic point-and-click adventures from legendary developer LucasArts, including The Secret of Monkey Island, Sam & Max: Hit The Road, and Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis.

The roster of LucasArts titles available with Prime Gaming has something to offer for players of all ages and skill levels, from longtime fans who grew up with these classic titles to newcomers experiencing them for the first time. Like all free games from Prime Gaming, once players claim these titles they are theirs to keep forever.

July 1 – The Secret of Monkey Island: Special Edition – Follow this game’s twisty plot as it leads naïve hero Guybrush Threepwood on a hilarious, swash-buckling search for the fabled secret of Monkey Island. If he’s clever enough, he’ll win the confidence of Mêlée’s pirates and find himself blown by the winds of fate toward the terrifying and legendary Monkey Island—an adventure that would chill the bones of even the most bloodthirsty buccaneer.
August 1 – Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis – Set on the eve of World War II, Nazi agents are about to get their hands on a weapon more dangerous than the atomic bomb, and it is up to the heroic archaeologist Indiana Jones to stop them before they unleash the deadly secret that sank Atlantis.
September 1 – Sam & Max: Hit The Road – Grab your nightstick, squeal like a siren, and Hit the Road with Sam & Max, Freelance Police, as they attempt to crack their toughest case in this 1993 2D graphic adventure game. Sam (a canine shamus) and Max (a hyperkinetic rabbity thing) are hot on the trail of a runaway carnival bigfoot across America’s quirky underbelly in this deranged animated adventure!
