Yet Another Quality Control Issue from LRG, with Monkey Island – Seafoam Gaming
I hate doing this. I always preface these sort of articles with that. I felt my report card was as much as I needed to talk about limprint companies for a long while, but having been DM’d tips and images regarding a situation I didn’t hear a word about, I figured I needed to make an article to inform buyers of this particular item regarding an issue that stems from it, and what’s er, been done to “fix” the situation.
So a long while back, Limited Run released a Monkey Island Collector Edition for PC. It actually was revised from an earlier version that was a bit more simplistic and lacked some of the original assets for the art/outer box, but I honestly thought it seemed like a pretty neat idea, even if the lack of any sort of familiarity with the series led to me personally passing on it.
When it finally arrived earlier this year, I did hear about some minor bumps: mainly, the fact that the spine has the games listed out of release order, but it really didn’t seem like nothing to worry about, and in photograph form, it’s a damn gorgeous package, including both discs and USBs containing all the included games in the collection in varying forms, along with a bunch of goodies and a signed card from the series creator. All in all, a package that looked pretty rad.
That is, until a reddit thread came out, indicating one of the DVD-Roms was completely unplayable. Monkey Island 2 Special Edition would just flat-out not work, but it was also on the included USB, which did work. It seemed like a weird issue, but I thought nothing of it at the time, though I was also linked to a tweet thread indicating that some USBs arrived corrupted and wouldn’t work either:
.@LimitedRunGames Some of the files on the Monkey Island Anthology USB stick are refusing to copy to my PC, as I’m being told they’re corrupt. I have seen other people having this problem as well.

Still, I don’t consider situations like these to be generally newsworthy to speak of. Stuff does happen, even when it comes to big mainstream companies: stuff accidentally slips by, and usually replacements exist to get fixed.
Even before my gripes with LRG, that happened whenever the occasional PS4 box would come to someone with a dent in it, just due to the nature of mail. Having not heard much followup on this since, I just went about my business and made a small mention of it in a prior article, but left it at that.
Turns out, people were told by support that they could get replacements, and it seems that the disc in question (Disc 1) would be replaced with a working copy in due time. However, next to nobody publicly reported this as an issue on Twitter at all, leading to me to suspect it was a very minor isolated issue, so I just went back to waiting and seeing what would happen or come from these replacements.
Welp, replacements are going out, and per my source, folks in the LRG discord are getting their replacements… And it’s literally a CD/DVD-R, purple backing and all. Whatever the case, I have heard these at least work, and those with Monkey Island on PC should contact LRG support to get a replacement.
I’m assuming due to multiple people encountering the same issue with Disc 1, that Disc 1 on all the units are impacted in some form, so you probably should test that out and see if MI2 works for you, and if not, contact LRG support pronto.
Either way, the issue remains that either a portion or heaven forbid, all copies of Disc 1 from the Monkey Island Anthology are borked in some way, and while the USB will provide you your game just fine, (DRM-Free even!) it’s pretty irksome that this outright broken disc went completely unaddressed by LRG, so I figured I’d make this article to let those with the CE know that they can check and get a replacement disc for it.
The fact I had to find out via a Discord DM tipster isn’t exactly the most promising sign, especially since Game Tengoku replacements and that whole Shiren PC incident also went about without a public statement from LRG. Still, both of those got resolved (well, the former, the latter I argue just applied a bandaid on a severed leg), and while a DVD-R is a lazy way to fix the issue, they at least did something… Even if it makes me honestly feel that LRG just aren’t good at making PC Collector Editions at all lately.

Limited Run Games: Monkey Island 30th Anniversary Interview: Questions, answered
Questions kindly answered by Josh Fairhurst.
How did the project come about? Was it Limited Run or Lucas/Disney who suggested the idea?
Disney approached us at E3 in 2018 to see if there was any interest from us in creating some boxed releases for their back catalog games (this feels like ages ago at this point). As a massive Star Wars fan, I couldn’t believe the opportunity was real. I made sure to propose an initial slate that consisted of Star Wars and Monkey Island — both franchises that I’m fond of.
Was the project inspired by the 30th anniversary, or have you been looking to release these games for a while?
We hadn’t specifically been looking to release them. To be honest, I never thought there would be a chance in a million years to get to work on these. I figured they would be tightly locked up in the Disney vault with Walt’s cryogenically frozen head.
It was a shock to learn we actually could release them and I still don’t quite believe it.
How did you decide to tackle re-releasing the Monkey Island games initially, and why did you eventually decide that a multi-game collection would be the best way to do it?
We initially sought to do separate releases with individual $60 — $70 Collector’s Edition boxes, but there was a lack of print-resolution, or even high-resolution, digital files for most of the Monkey Island art. It didn’t feel like we had enough of what we needed to do those individual releases justice. Most of the art currently lives in physical form at the Skywalker Ranch archives. We had hoped to visit and scan some of those pieces back in March, but COVID ensured that couldn’t happen. We ended up working with fans like Jan Hofmeister to get restored and print ready art, which has helped us tremendously, but we still lack a lot of stuff we had hoped to have. Maybe we can revisit individual releases sometime in the future when we’re all on the other side of this pandemic.
When did you get the rights to include Tales of Monkey Island? It was a nice surprise to see it included, but it hadn’t previously been announced.
This happened recently. We had been discussing including it with the new Telltale for a few months, but we did not officially get an OK from both Disney and Telltale to include the game until a few weeks ago.
Onto the pack itself…
Is there a list of which versions of the games will be included? For example, Monkey Island 1 and Monkey Island 2 were both released on a variety of platforms, and Monkey Island 1 had both an EGA 16-colour release and a VGA 256-colour release. Are we going to get these versions in the pack, or is it going to be the «standard» versions only?
We don’t have a full list of versions yet, but we’re hopeful to include multiple versions of games where possible (EGA, VGA, Mac, Amiga, etc.). We plan to work with a top archivist to preserve the actual floppy diskette images and include those on the USB drive, so folks can utilize those as they like to revisit whichever versions.
Floppy Diskette preservation is a bit beyond my wheelhouse, so I’m not really the one to talk about it (we are talking to someone much better to handle the actual preservation of it all). This is all entirely up to Disney to allow, really. Hopefully I can solidify those inclusions soon so we can advertise a list of versions included.
Are the game files the original release files, or are they configured for Scumm VM?
Curse and Escape will be configured like they are on GOG. We’re currently still solidifying the approach for the original releases of Secret and LeChuck’s Revenge. The Special Editions of both will be in the box, but we know that the originals will be more important to long-time series fans. We’ll be doing our best to ensure we include whatever we can in the most usable state.
With Tales of Monkey Island, the first episode was originally released on PC with a different actor playing LeChuck. Telltale Games later re-recorded this dialogue with Earl Boen, the actor from Curse and Escape.
Will we get the «Earl Boen» version of Tales episode 1?
I received the files for TMI last week but I haven’t had the chance to verify anything yet. My gut feeling would be that I was sent the latest and greatest versions of each episode, so my assumption would be that we have the Earl Boen version.
Are there any digital extras planned for the USB stick (eg. soundtracks, manuals etc.) or is it just the games?
Soundtracks are all off the table, unfortunately, as Disney has a separate music licensing group that controls those rights. As mentioned above, my plan is to have the USB drive contain all of the games and as many versions of each game as we are allowed to include (don’t get your hopes up for obscure things like the FM Towns Marty version, though). I’d like to include some other extras, like a digital version of the book we’re producing, and maybe the strategy guide scans if Disney owns those rights (I recall the guides having a lot of additional world building in them — they’d be nice to include digitally).
If the games come on the USB stick, what’s in the slipcase for each game?
The box on the mockup is actually pretty misleading. I want to mention it here that based on fan feedback we’re actually deeply re-evaluating the design and contents. The box missed the mark in a number of ways so it’s important that we revisit it and make it better. One of the changes we hope to add to the box is actually the inclusion of some DVD-ROMs in addition to the USB since we received a lot of feedback asking for actual discs.
What’s the deal with disk 22 — is it an actual real floppy disk, or just a replica? If it’s a genuine floppy, does it have data on it?
It’s a real working floppy disk with a glorious 1.44MB of storage space. Adding data is possible but it costs extra for us to do and we have to be extremely cautious about going over budget — the good news is we can add new features or expand existing contents if we sell enough units to allow it (the more we sell, the lower the costs for each piece will be).
If we sell enough of the set, we do intend to write data to the floppy but we can’t tell you what that would be yet — it’ll be a fun surprise when you get it.
How did the Guybrush statue come about? It looks like it uses the design from the special edition of Monkey Island 2 — was it originally planned for release with the MI2 Special Edition? Or is it an original design?
It’s an original design. Our intent with the box was to include at least one physical item from each game and the statue was intended to be our item for Monkey Island 2. It’s difficult to interpret pixel art into a statue design so we went with something based on the MI2 SE Guybrush. I didn’t personally feel that the MI2 SE Guybrush strayed too far from his pixel art basis, at least not in the way the first MI SE Guybrush strayed from the original art. I’m really happy with how the statue turned out. I know there’s an anachronism in him holding the rubber chicken with a pulley in it, but that comes from me also wanting to include that item in the box somehow and putting it on the statue was a two birds with one stone kind of thing — anachronism be damned.
Is this collection a limited edition with pre-order windows, or is it open for as many pre-orders as people put in for it?
It will be a four-week open preorder. We originally announced an October 30th preorder launch date, but we have (currently) decided to delay a few weeks to hone the design and offering. A new release date will be announced soon unless we somehow manage to pull off revisions and get approval in time to still hit the 30th.
Finally, looking to the future…
Does LRG have any other LucasArts adventure games in the pipeline? If so, can you share anything? If not, are there any other LucasArts adventure games you’d like to work on, after Monkey Island?
I can’t say anything in specific, but I hope to be able to work with everyone’s favorite dog and rabbity thing freelance police duo soon.
What are the chances of us getting a re-release of Maniac Mansion for the NES? We’ve seen you release NES games before and this would be a really special one for LucasArts fans!
It would be great to re-release it — the US version with the hamster microwaving, of course.
Having released Thimbleweed Park on Switch and PS4, we’re big fans of Ron and Gary. It would be great to release one of their formative works.
Similarly, how about the PS2 version of Escape From Monkey Island — is that a possibility one day?
Sadly, Sony shut down PS1 and PS2 disc manufacturing back in August 2019. With the aggressive copy protection those systems have, it’s not possible to replicate our own self-booting PS2 discs. Unfortunately, this means that EMI is pretty much only re-releasable on PC at the moment.
Finally, if you had the opportunity to release all the LucasArts adventure games in one bumper 14 game package, would you do it? Or would you prefer to release each game individually?
From my experience with announcing the Monkey Island Anthology, I think I’d actually opt for singular releases. The reason I say that is that each game means something different to each player. Some would want Maniac Mansion represented more than Grim Fandango, or I don’t know — someone might want every item in the box to be from The Dig.
Everyone would want something different and there would be so much scrutiny on each item we choose to include. What pleases one person will repulse another and so on. With individual releases we can ensure each game gets the same treatment as the others and we have more room in the budget to ensure each game gets some kind of trinket or thing to make fans of that game happy. With Monkey Island it’s so clear that there is a lot of passion for these games — they’ve defined people’s lives — and we’re unfortunately limited on the budget side from getting to do everything that everyone wants. We have to make all these hard choices on what to pursue. It’s clear we made some bad attempts with this first stab, but we’re really trying to figure out the best box for when we re-reveal it. I still fully expect groans about the lack of one thing or another — but I’ll at least know we really gave it our all to fix what we originally had.
