Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse is the conclusion of the Telltale's episodic Sam & Max trilogy, remastered by members of the original dev team and brought back to life for modern systems.
Telltale has really naild the writing here, and they've also played around with the gameplay, which is more varied and variable than in the past. The old flaws are still there, unfortunately, but if you can get past them, you get a really stylish, witty and entertaining adventure game that will easily take you 15 hours to play.
The remastering of Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse is a milestone that any adventure fan should celebrate
This remaster of Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse is just as great and crazy as two last seasons. Neat puzzles, dry and well written humour and quirky characters: We can only hope that these guys come back someday.
When it comes to point-and-click puzzle games, this is a nearly flawless example of how to tell an engaging story while giving players plenty to do and not holding their hand along the way. I find it hard to imagine a much better structure for the genre, and though some of the humor and characters weren't to my taste, those minor gripes are far outweighed...
A journey back in time to the golden days of the duo Sam & Max and the life of Telltale Games before The Walking Dead series.
