The Secret of Monkey Island
"The Secret of Monkey Island" ultimately cost $200,000 to produce, and was developed over nine months.
Tales of Monkey Island
Dominic Armato, the voice actor of Guybrush from "The Curse of Monkey Island" onward, reprises his role as that character. LucasArts encouraged Telltale to retain as much of the original cast as possible—particularly Armato, who was described by LucasArts' David Collins as "the ultimate "Monkey Island" fanboy". Armato enjoyed his opportunity to voice Guybrush again; he had believed that the series would never be continued, due to the length of time since "Escape from Monkey Island"s release. Armato voiced the character in both "Tales of Monkey Island" and the special edition of "The Secret of Monkey Island"; in the former game, he attempted to make Guybrush sound more mature and experienced than his younger incarnation in the latter. Because of Armato's understanding of the character, the voice directors gave him considerable flexibility in his performance.
