Originally conceived as a Treasure Island-like pirate adventure by Ron Gilbert and heavily inspired by the pirate adventure novel On Stranger Tides note (no, not that one), co-creators Tim Schafer and Dave Grossman (of Telltale Games) began using their own meta-fictional jokes as placeholders.

Time for the biggest battle of my swashbuckling life. suddenly, the hairy finger of a familiar monkey tapped me on the shoulder. If I'd never picked up a sword, the grog-swilling pirates of the Tri-Island Area might be unthreatened by the forces of gentrification and demonic heckfire. If only I'd chosen a different path, LeChuck might still be dead and the Ultimate Insult might have remained a mystery. I'd ignored recent events that should have been warning shots across the bow of my soul, from my wife's brush with death to the anti-pirate ramblings of an Australian gazillionaire. Spitting the sand of Monkey Island from my mouth, I wondered if the life of a mighty pirate was all it was cracked up to be.
