A breath of fresh air in a crowded subway
I'm not sure what happened, but I posted a rave review of Sam & Max: Season One, yet for whatever reason it never appeared.
Anyway, I assure you, I gave it incredibly high praise. Things like "this is what all other games should aspire to," etc., etc. That'll learn me to save the things I write for occasions such as this.
Just get the game. Rating:

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. Rating:

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. Rating:

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. |
