Essential improvements[edit]
Compatibility on modern systems[edit]
- The classic version can be played on modern systems using DOSBox or ScummVM.
Sound Blaster 486 patch[edit]
- If your running the game in ScummVM, this patch is irrelevant
A patch[1] is available to solve problems with Sound Blaster and 486 or faster computers for the VGA256 edition of the game. The patch is available simply as MONKEY.EXE, and replaces the MONKEY.EXE that came with the game.
- Before replacing your MONKEY.EXE, check your existing interpreter version by running
MONKEY ?. The replacement interpreter is version 5.0.18. If your existing interpreter version is newer, don't replace it.
Lloyd The Monkey Mac Os Catalina
- This update does NOT add a Sound Blaster audio option. Like interpreter version before it, Sound Blaster cards will use the Adlib option with this interpreter.

Roland MT-32 patch[edit]
A patch[2] was made available for adding Roland MT-32 support to the EGA diskette versions of the game that lacked the support. The patch is available as a self-extracting ZIP file named MONKEYUP.EXE that extracts to DISK09.LEC.
- After the update, running
MONKEY ?will not show a Roland option. Despite this, starting the game withMONKEY Rwill attempt to use the Roland MT-32.
Ultimate Talkie Edition[edit]
Uses the 2009 'Special Edition' version to create a fan patched[3] version that adds bug fixes and speech. And unlike the Special Edition version, can be run from ScummVM, DOS or DOSBox.

Mac game maker Freeverse Software has announced that one of its most popular (and unusual) games is now available for Mac OS X. The company has announced the release of Burning Monkey Solitaire II version 2.5, which works on Mac OS 8.6 through X.
Burning Monkey Solitaire II is no mild mannered solitaire game — this is a full-contact, extreme solitaire game chock full of color graphics, obnoxious sounds, bad jokes, and, of course, Freeverse's trademark monkeys. The game also features what Freeverse bills as 'the world's most extensive cheating mode.'
Burning Monkey Solitaire II sports an array of classic solitaire card games, including Klondike, FreeCell, Pyramid, Canfield and 52 Pick-Up. The title also features full statistics, specific game replay, multiple decks, casino scoring, a 'boss coming!' screen, and more.
Burning Monkey Solitaire II version 2.5 calls for Mac OS 8.6 or later, including Mac OS X; 16MB RAM; 15MB of disk space.
Offered as shareware, Burning Monkey Solitaire II version 2.5 can be downloaded from Freeverse's Web site now. The game costs US$14.95 to register, or $24.95 to purchase on CD-ROM.
