Generally favorable reviews - based on 23 Critics What's this?

  • Summary: The Sam & Max franchise gets a film noir twist.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 16 out of 23
  2. Negative: 1 out of 23
  1. For anyone that is still wondering if they should spend the money on Season 3, they should. Telltale has managed to craft something so great that anyone who has a PC should pick it up. It is a very rare for a string of episodic releases to be this good.
  2. Another great episode comes with surprising "noir" opening and continues with extremely fun and original playability. Not such a breakthrough like Episode 2 but still way above average game. [July 2010]
  3. Surprising introductory puzzle aside, it does nothing to innovate and barely feels like its moving the plot along. Much as I enjoy this particular series, They Stole Max's Brain! -- nothing personal, Sam -- is for the dogs.
