Monkey Island Music Extractor

Monkey Island Music Extractor is a simple application that can help fans of the Monkey Island seriously enjoy the background tunes without having to leave their video game open. In other words, the application extracts the music used in the video game. I was very happy to find this program since I could relieve some key vibes from the game without having to put up with the time-consuming story.

For starters, the user cannot see the underlying mechanisms, but in short, the program is designed to extract the existing music files from certain .PAK files on the original game DVD, creating an output directory where the app is initially launched. Don't worry, it is indeed portable, which means you will not have any issues helping your friends out by owning any of the two games working with this program.

And since you asked about what games in the series work with this contraption of software, you'll rejoice hearing that we're talking about Monkey Island 1 and 2 Special Edition. By now, these are classic games that any serious gamer out there will enjoy and since music is one part of the vibes a gamer gets when playing, I think this is the perfect way to enjoy the game, once you've finished the story and simply want to hear the associated tunes it sports.

Indeed, the application is extremely simple, keeping in mind the above-described mechanism behind its interface. Nevertheless, there are two particular choices once can make, and that is dumping the music of the game or the UI. Once you decide on which one to choose, using the associated radio buttons, you are free to press the GO button which ultimately launches the extraction procedure.

I was surprised to see how fast it all worked out, and was pleased to be able to enjoy my favorite tracks from within the video game. If you are a big fan too, then you'll want to give this app a try.
