Brad Taylor was a key cog in the LucasArts machine and worked his magic on the infamous SCUMM engine. This was used in so many classic LucasArts titles, such as The Secret of Monkey Island, Le Chuck’s Revenge, Day of the Tentacle, Sam & Max Hit the Road and lots more!

Brad worked closely with Ron Gilbert to create, update and implement the SCUMM engine to some truly classic titles. Brad reflect on his time at LucasArts, his favourite memories and shares some amazing stories from a truly iconic video game company.
