TellTale Games deliver the Sam & Max game we've been waiting for!

When I heard that TellTale Games was developing a new Sam & Max adventure, I was excited. Having seen our hopes be dashed by the light saber loving company that owned the rights to the game, I was glad to see a company take it on and deliver a true masterpiece.

Season 1 is an excellent adventure game. It stayed true to Hit the Road. The funny antics that these two go through are worth the money.

If you are an old school adventure gamer, buy it. If you are new to the scene, buy it. If you are into FPS, Strategy, or RPG games, buy it anyway.

Great season, keep 'em coming

If you like adventure games, this is a great game, but if you're a Sam and Max fan, you must own it.
The Pros: It's Sam & Max, the stories are fun, voice acting is quite good, graphics are good (for the genre) and the music is superb.
The Cons: Some episodes are too short and the puzzles could be more challenging. The overall story arc is good but is tied up too fast.

A "must have" for all Sam & Max and adventure game fans

Having played the original Sam & Max game a decade back, which I loved, and with the total dearth of adverture games now, any Sam and Max fan or any adventure game lover in general should buy this game, which contains the 6 episodes(Season One) previously sold individually. Some episodes are better than others, hence my 4 star rating, but you can't go wrong here.

Fantastic

This game is funny, fun, & different than anything else out there. Highly recommended.

Fun for the Novice, Way too simple for the experienced

If you're a veteran of the old-time Sierra classics like Space Quest, Hero's Quest, and Police Quest, or some of the newer in the genre such as The Longest Journey and Grim Fandango then you are most likely going to like this game, but not love it. Why? Because the puzzles are way too easy.

Each episode will last from one to one and a half hours, and the puzzles are so shallow that short of missing something you were supposed to pick up, you won't have any trouble figuring out what to do next.

The voice acting's OK, and the humor is simple but entertaining and won't appeal to everyone.

LOVED IT!!!

I haven't had this much fun with a computer game in years! The plot was fun, the characters are fun and the action was fun! I am alway buying games only to find they are too complicated to operate, but I had not problems with this one. I highly recommend it to anyone needing a good laugh.

Short but Sweet

Until now the last decent adventure game that I played was Grim Fandango. Sam and Max is a a lot of fun, but it was very short. I finished the game in under a week. This is really a minor complaint, since I enjoyed the game's witty dialog and its goofy characters. Sam and Max is well worth your time and money.

Fun once, but not much more than that....

This game is ESPECIALLY fun to play. With its witty dialogue, creepy characters, and (ahem) unique qituations, this game is not one to miss. If one wanted to, they could go to [...] and play the latest episodes, but I prefer to wait to buy the full season. I found myself speaking in the mannerisms of Sam while playing this; thankfully if has passed ;-). It wont have you glued to your computer forever [the only downside with investigative games], but it will certainly hold your attention for a few days.

While not a game to play forever, give it to your friends when done. They'll get a good bunch of laughs from it.

P.S.-When playing this game remember; BE EVIL. Picking the mean or evil choices is almost ALWAYS the right choice.

Although I haven't completed this game, it is the worst game I've played on the computer in a long time. It is extremely slow loading, runs choppy, and the sound is choppy and erratic. Perhaps it is due to my system but I have Windows XP and so far have received no help from support people at Adventure Games.
