![]() ![]() Wierdly, i'd never seen the cartoon, it wasn't broadcast when I was growing up apparently. They even helped republish the long out of print comic series which I enjoyed reading at last. Many many years later I got a new copy of Hit The Road and then Telltale Games was born and 3 "series" of games happened which was awesome. Sam and Max have always held a special place in my heart, like all the Lucasarts adventure titles really. It took months but FINALLY we stumbled upon someone selling a copy of Sam and Max, they were on the other side of the city but my dad was willing to drive to shut me up about this damn game.Īnd so I finally got my precious copy of Sam and Max hit the road and I played the hell out of it till I got horribly critically stuck (remember, this was 1994, long before the era of game walkthroughs) and then I lent it to a "friend" who never game me my disks back -_- jerk. People would post their want ads, their sale ads and so on for a nominal fee. He asked around and every week we purchased the Trade and Exchange, which for those born after the 90s was like Gumtree but in physical paper form. My father threw himself into the challenge. ![]() So finding a game that was released pretty much alongside DOTT and had left shelves months and months prior was not going to be an easy task. Unfortunately this was 1993/4 in NZ, back then game stores weren't really a thing and the only place I knew of to buy games were department stores like Kmart.īut because they were department stores their video game sections were tiny and only stocked the absolute LATEST games. Now I had no idea who Sam and Max were prior to this (it was an indie comic illustrated by a staff member named Steve Purcell who now works for Disney) but i LOVED the demo and desperately wanted the game. In the following years my father would often gift me a new adventure game for my birthday or christmas and I remember the year I got Day of the Tentacle and once I finished the game playing the demo for the next game the company was doing.ĭOTT had a playable demo for Sam and Max Hit the Road. Spending an evening playing that while my parents partied upstairs (as they often did when I was growing up) cemented my love for the point and click adventure game genre and especially for Lucasarts. crazy into them and it's mostly the fault of my courtesy uncle and his pirated copy of, appropriately enough, Monkey Island 2 lol.
