We do want to avoid spoilers altogether, as this game is, of course, entirely story-driven. To this end, we will just reveal that it should take roughly eight hours to complete Return to Monkey Island's story.

It depends on the player, as some might take much longer to figure out a particular puzzle, while others might not want to use the Hint Book.

Furthermore, there are also two difficulty levels, Casual and Hard mode. Picking a higher difficulty will increase the time it takes to complete Return to Monkey Island.

Lastly, the game can be completed much faster, as there's even an achievement on Steam for completing it in under two hours.

To summarize, it depends on player wit and intelligence, how long they spend taking in the sights, speaking to the fantastic characters, and more.
