  1. This is simply amazing writing with some of the best satirical political commentary without even mentioning specifics about either Democrats or Republicans along with longer and tougher gameplay.

    Abe Lincoln Must Die pulls Sam & Max right back up from the slight stumble that was episode three and prepares them for what will hopefully be two more great installments before the end of Season One.
  3. It's still not quite good enough to recommend purchasing individual episodes, but the season package is starting to look pretty tempting. Make sure your system is well above the minimum requirements for maximum pleasure.

    I've just played this game to the end and let me just say that it has been YEARS since I actually completed a game the last time. It may be because the game is so short, but I just want to say that I really enjoyed it. I was smiling practically the whole time. The voices are great and the plot is just stunningly humorous. I can honestly say that I've grown very very fond of Sam & Max! I can definitely recommend this game to everyone. Haha. And this episode can actually be played free over Steam. Expand

    One of the best games in the series but had some rough gags but still one of the best.

    Being the 1st episode i have played I was going in to this a bit blind but i was happy of what I got. The story line was funny I didn't laugh out loud it did have a good plot. But the gameplay was lacking good for £0 but i don't think i'll pat £9 for any more it was just easy to figure out the answer. Expand

    Nice colorful graphics but no consistency in puzzle difficulty and a lot of going back and forth between locations required to solve some of the puzzles. Humor quite forced at times as well. Not one of the better episodes. Expand
