Sam & Max Hit the Road

So. Got this game on floppies. Got the game when floppy full talkie came out. Got the CD ROM version (Twice... because my "(ex)friend" "Borrowed" a copy). Bought on GOG. Yep. I have bought this game 5 times now. Ok. Little background on me. I am a Police Officer. Use quotes of this game so many times my co workers hate me. (Specially the one about driving at the start intro) Anyhow. Game review hu. Yep. Ok. Its good. Starts off easy enough then BLAM! Bigfoots and country singing! Spoilers? hu? if you haven't played this game by now you are either an idiot or an idiot. Go buy it. It costs less than a big mac meal. Leaves you satisfied for much longer. Jokes, graphics and sound still better than the telltale series. Sure its not 3D but its RETRO. Nothing bad. And under $10AU...can't ask for more (remember new games cost like $90.....and this one will last for that long and more)

All the other reviews accurately describe this game as the finest of the LucasArts point and click adventures. Great puzzles, humor, music, etc... I'm writing this review to just add one more point: This game is a window into the most awesome thing about America - the absolute crazy shit you will find if you go off the beaten path and just explore. I suspect many of the non American users on this site may not realize that many locations in the game are real places or parodies of real places. Snuckeys (Stuckeys is the real roadside chain store), Gator Golf, Frog Rocks all over the place. The Mystery Vortex (it's in Oregon) & the World's Largest Ball of Twine (actually in Minnesota). Bumpusville is a parody of Graceland. Sure, Mt. Rushmore doesn't actually have dinosaur tar pits, and although there isn't a celebrity vegetable museum, I have found all sorts of weird celebrity museums and exhibits, including one with celebrities made out of butter. Playing this game is like reliving a slightly exaggerated version of what it was like as a kid going on a family vacation in the early 1980's.

a master on it`s own

This game is Lucas Arts at their peak. It made me love the word "Lagomorph." A comic adventure, with musical numbers, that is entertaining all the way through. If you have ever enjoyed point and click adventures, you owe it to your self to play this one. And after you fall in love with these characters, GOG has the Telltale Games series too. Steve Purcell, et al, be praised!!

Sam & Max really go full out with the humor and that's what making the game enjoyable imo. It got interesting and quirky characters, the various environments are fun to explore and nothing really feels like repetitions or chores. Finding Bruno the Bigfoot seems like a simple storyline but there also seems to be a deeper message hidden somewhere in the game. Or is there? Eitherway, this adventure of Sam & Max is what you're definitely expect when wanting to play a LucasArt game, it got it all! Gameplay-wise it's creative with its puzzle, adding lots of fun animations, but I have to admit that it took some time getting used to "the SCUMM wheel" of choosing action. It wasn't also really clear in the conversations what each icon actually did. However, Hit the Road really hits home and is a must play for any LucasArts fan :D
