Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Sam and Max Hit the Road lets players guide Sam (a detective dog) and Max (his rabbit sidekick) through a series of twisted adventures. Don't let the talking-animal theme fool you--this is a cartoon for adults with plenty of over-the-top humour and some tricky puzzles.

Product Description

Yikes! Grab your nightstick squeal like a siren and hit the road with Sam & Max Freelance Police as they attempt to crack their toughest case. Sam (a canine shamus) and Max (a hyperkinetic rabbity thing) are hot on the trail of a runaway carnival bigfoot across America's quirky underbelly in this deranged animated adventure!

Help our frightening furry flatfoots find the fugitive freak!

Do it now!

5.0 out of 5 stars Two of the finest point and clickers ever made. 20 Dec 2002
Day of the Tentacle is one of the greatest adventure games ever released. It ranks alongisde such classics as 'Grim Fandango' and 'The Secret of Monkey Island'.

Witty, Hilarious, Interesting, Satisfying. The puzzles are all perfect, the dialogue is delicious, and the tentacles terrible. Schafer at his finest.

Sam and Max is also a brilliant game, although not nearly as good. It's a lot funnier, and the voice acting is superb, but it lacks in the puzzle area, often being annoying.

And as for the other review, telling you that there will be no sequels, he lies! Sam & Max 2 (Mark 2) is in production as I type, and Day of the Tentacle 2 (Or Maniac Mansion 3) is still a possibility.

If you liked 'Monkey Island', any of the 'Quest' or 'Larry' series, or any of the classic point and click adventures, and you don't own this, then you really should go slap yourself in the face immediatly, and return to your computer with a credit card and an excited look on your face.

5.0 out of 5 stars These games WILL WORK on XP !!!!!!! 4 Aug 2004
By Scott
DOTT and Sam & Max are two of the best (and funniest) original adventure games for the PC, regardless of how old they now are. A recommended purchase, especially with the two games now on the one cd at this price! Ignore what has been said before, to run these games on Windows XP (or any other version of Windows that you are having problems running the CD with) all you need to do is to download a small free program called 'SCUMMVM', from Lucasarts, at: http://www.scummvm.org/

This program lets you play the games perfectly on XP with no problems whatsoever with full sound, along with many other Lucasarts games such as the original CD and Floppy versions of Beneath A Steel Sky, Indiana Jones, Loom, the Dig, Full Throttle, and so on. Beneath A Steel Sky is now available on freeware game websites now if you look hard enough as well. There really is no excuse for not buying Sam and Max/DOTT though since SCUMMVM runs it fine on XP, and if you like adventure games at all you definately wont be disappointed by this purchase

5.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Lucasarts Game! 29 Oct 2001
Shortly after hooking up the new family P.C., I went to purchase my first game. For twenty pounds I got a three pack box featuring, Sam and Max, Day of the Tentacle and Indiana Jones: Fate of Atlantis (sadly not included in this package). That was over six years ago and they were available as budget titles back then! This DVD really demonstrates how some games just get better with age. Sure, they aren't multiplayer, 3D or long for that matter but they more than make up for this with their sheer playablity, and laughability. Even the amazing Monkey Island games aren't half as hilarious as these two releases.
Day of the Tentacle is the sequel to Maniac Mansion (also available within the game) and despite having the silliest plot EVER to feature in a game is brillantly entertaining. The script and voice acting alone makes it worthy.
Even though Day of the Tentacle alone justifies the cheap price, Sam and Max will simply blow you away. The humour is crude and semi-offensive, just the way i like it! The game is fun to play, the graphics remain top-notch and the puzzles mind-numbingly challenging. Remember to look for 'Frog Rock' using the Lens with the Binoculars (a puzzle that stumped me for months!).

Bottom line is simply this:

Please.....buy this game, now. The only downside they have is that there will probably never be sequels for either.
