Issue #49: Mobility

We’re all about the socials, sometimes.

Let’s kick it off with the sosh: As one is supposed to, we’re on Threads under the easy-to-type handle @internationalhouseofmojo. That’s right, we’re trying yet another social network. Will it stick? Who knows! But there we are.

But screw all that—much more importantly, Return to Monkey Island will be available for iOS and Android on July 27th. Pre-orders are even available. We’ve got more over in the news section.

And for those who prefer more highfalutin options than social media, why not read a book? We’ve got selections from Ronzo, Tim Schafer, Dave Grossman, and others. Read up on reading.

Jason has a surprisingly positive—and well-informed—Dial of Destiny review. I know the latest Indy movie has received mixed reactions, but Mojo’s general opinion has been a solid 👌.

Looking for a Mojole companion? Try Monkey Island Heardle for a sonic head-scratcher.

Everyone loves a good Ronzo interview.

And a Dave interview.

Hell, even a Tim interview.

And that’s about it. (Which, frankly, should be plenty!) Two weeks until SeMI hits the Sea of Thieves, so there’s something to look forward to, too.
