Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse Episode 3: They Stole Max's Brain Impressions

06/19/2010 Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse Episode 3: They Stole Max's Brain Impressions

The Sam & Max franchise gets a film-noir twist in the next episode of The Devil's Playhouse.

Contrary to the reports we've been hearing for the last decade, the classic adventure genre isn't dying. In fact, adventure games had a particularly strong showing at E3 2010, thanks in part to the continued efforts of Telltale Games. We stopped by the developer's booth to get a glimpse of the next installment in the current season of Sam & Max.

Who's Making It:Ingenious minds Telltale Games, of course. This is a team for another Sam and Max episodes, and tales Monkey Island, Wallace and Gromit and the upcoming games based on Jurassic Park "and" Back to the Future licenses.

What It Looks Like and What It's About:

What You Do:

The episode goes in a different direction about halfway through, but unfortunately, Telltale Games did not respond to any of our intense interrogation techniques by dropping any tantalizing tidbits about that shift in gameplay.

What They Say: They Stole Max's Brain will be available to download in a matter of days, on June 22, 2010. Two more episodes will round out the current season.

What We Say: At one point during the demo, a character alluded to an itchy sensation in his boxers. If you like adventure games or Sam & Max or just appreciate games that put a smile on your face, They Stole Max's Brain is likely to elicit a similar reaction in your own underpants.
