Sam & Max Hit the Road

Comedy writing is tough. Stand-up and comedy films work because of a combination of written and visual humor and comedic timing. When you take out the human element and are forced to rely on the writing, it can be a crapshoot. How many books or games have made you laugh out loud solely based on dialogue? This game does. Sam and Max is REALLY funny. That alone makes it unique among point and clicks. And I don't mean just a chuckle here and there. There were times playing this game where I nearly cried laughing. Add to that a bunch of well designed puzzles and an intriguing story, and you can't get much better. Seriously.

It has a style of humour that meshes with me, idk. It comes with its own SCUMMVM install but as I have a standalone installation of it I decided to use that. I also have SCUMMVM installed on my PSVita so I can play the game at school. Plus it means that I can use cloud saves which is a pretty cool feature.

Got Sam & Max for christmas mid 90s and we didn't had google to look for solutions back then...so we gut stuck many times for weeks and still enjoyed this game over and over and over again...must have poked that duded down the stairs a thousand times :D Always play this game from time to time whenever I get some new android device and test scummvm on it...it just never gets old or boring. Simply one of the best, if not the best adventure ever made!

i like them. :)

Sam & Max is great for those who love adventure games and want also to have lots of humour everywhere. It holds up today and highly recommend. Tip if you do purchase, F5 will bring up the menu for saving and exiting the game.
