I was always intrigued by how well this typeface worked in the game: very clean and easy to read.
(And I'm experimenting with gradients for use in my pictures -- and what better example than the Indiana Jones red-to-yellow?)
Though I've never played the Monkey Island series (more of a Sierra man, myself), I knew that this font was used in other LucasArts games from the early-to-mid '90s.
And Monkey Island 1 & 2 have recently been upgraded and re-released; during gameplay, you can even change between the upgraded version and the classic version to see what's new (or what's old)!
P.S. Old-school LucasArts and Sierra FTW! ;)
And you are correct: the outline style certainly stands out much better than a solid version would. It certainly caught my eye years ago while playing "Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis".
