Sam & Max

I'm a GameTap subscriber, so I have all the Sam & Max there is at my fingertips. But the truth is, I don't much care for adventure games anymore. The puzzles are drawn out and not much fun to figure out, usually involving some borderline random combining of items. Also, the pace of modern comedy programming makes the walking around and exploring parts feel painfully slow. But I'd just gotten the complete Sam & Max cartoon series on DVD, so I figured I'd finally resume where I'd left off, at episode four. That was a good thing.

I still have the same issues with pacing and using problem solving to get through problems better fixed with violence, but some of the political jokes, plot points, and the musical number make this one not to miss. Add to that the fact that it's a free download, and you should stop reading this and go play it. Now.

Just go down to the link that says buy it for $0.00 and thank me later.
