Let me make this quick. If you like the quirky humor and nonsensical shenanigans of Strong Bad and Homestar Runner enough to pay $8.95 for a point-and-click episode of the web series, this game is right up your alley. Everyone else, save that money and go buy a yo-yo or a lottery ticket. It’ll keep you entertained far longer.

Bottom Line: 2

Straight out of San Diego comes the latest comic-book animation and videogame news: Telltale Games, who have made two seasons of Sam and Max episodic games and are working on the Homestar Runner Wiiware game, have announced they’ll be creating a series of games based on Wallace and Gromit.

Wallace and Gromit are a British man-and-best-friend team that have held a number of odd jobs across their short films, including window washers, sheep shearers, and astronauts. Telltale CEO Dan Connors told the Associated Press that they’ll stay true to the short films and 2005 movie, but no word yet on whether these will be action-based or adventure-based games.

W&G is a beloved series by many, so hopefully Telltale Games will be careful to keep fans on board by carefully matching the series’ humor, wit, and art style. As soon as we have the first concrete info on this intriguing new game, we’ll be sure to let you know.

Thank goodness, I was worried there for a bit. After the lackluster Moai Better Blues, which was a bit on the short side, the latest Sam and Max episode brings the comedic adventure series back to where it belongs. In Night of the Raving Dead, you’ve got some of the best music in the series so far, a great new villain, and plenty of interesting puzzles. Read more…

When we last left Sam and Max, they had just saved a demon-possessed Santa at the North Pole and then righted the wrongs of Christmas past, present, and future. Now, they’ve jumped through the Bermuda Triangle, where they will rock out with the giant stone heads of the Easter Island Moai and sip from the Fountain of Youth with the ever-young Amelia Earhart and Jimmy Hoffa. It’s good to be back. Read more…

The new season of S&M is finally upon us, and gamers are fortunate that episodic adventure games have finally advanced to this point. Ice Station Santa, a warped Christmas story that plays on elements of Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, Dickens’ A Christmas Carol, and, inexplicably, The Exorcist, is riotously funny and very easy to get into.

Dan Connors is the CEO of Telltale Games, makers of the Sam & Max episodes

The Sam and Max episodes have proven that regular episodic gaming can work, and that there’s still room for comedic adventure games in the market. Telltale Games sells their episodic games through their website, and their games are also available on Gametap. We spoke to Telltale’s CEO Dan Connors about the Sam and Max community and what makes Sam and Max work as episodic comedy. Read more…
