Sam & Max: They Stole Max's Brain! - Review

Sam & Max: They Stole Max's Brain!
Rating: NR - Not Rated

Brainless Max - well now that's a problem, because Max is the one with all the astral powers. The episode opens with Sam screaming over Max's limp body - his brain pan sawed open, ears flapping limply. Truly shocking sight for a S&M game. We get to see another side of Sam. No longer a suited dapper gent with a fedora, now, with his shirt sleeves rolled up he is a tough, brutal PI fiercely questioning everyone, looking for clues. After many go arounds, and lots of jokes, he heads to the museum to encounter ….

Good use of the Egyptian theme in graphics and gags. This one wraps things up nicely so you are not left hanging by your fingertips from the edge of a cliff. Informational Alert - I didn't know that those guys twirling signs on street corners are called Sign Spinners - how poetic.

Next stop - Beyond the Alley of the Dolls

The game is currently out on the PC and Mac and will be coming out on the iPad and PS3. You can subscribe upfront for the total five series adventure plus a final disk copy for $34.95 at
