Sam And Max
In a completely different adventure pc game, Sam and Max are a private investigation duo (or freelance police as they like to be called). These episodic investigations are point-and-click-adventure games in the vein of LucasArts adventures such as Monkey Island or Day Of The Tenticle.
They’re quite wacky and the plots don’t really mean much, being set in a cartoon world, anything can happen and it usually does!
Within these games are a number of fantastically interesting and curious characters. A robot head replica of Abraham Lincoln, Bitter Ex-child super stars and evolved 8-bit computers that try to take over the world just for example. Then you have Sam and Max themselves. Sam: A ponderous dog with a big gun, and Max: the most evil rabbit-creature in the world.
In some ways the stories are an excuse for comic one-liners from Sam and for Max to try and beat the living snot out of anything and everything he sees. Other than that the levels require you to use a collected object with a world object to create a positive outcome. In other games this usually consists of using a key in a lock. However in Sam and Max games it’s more like put the chicken in the time machine, but maybe slightly more logical than that! As Sam says: “You crack me up little buddy!”
