Sam And Max Hit The Road - MS-DOS

Sam And Max Hit The Road2.txt Sam And Max Hit The Road This time, they are given the task of finding two escapees from a traveling circus: Bigfoot named Bruno and the giraffe woman Trixie. As is usually the case in this type of productions, it quickly turns out that the plot comes in much larger circles, and the perpetrator of the alleged "escape" may be the country music star Cornoy Bumpus. For the first time in the history of LucasArts adventure games, the traditional Scumm system has been abandoned in favor of a few icons expressing basic activities. The treatment, although controversial, almost immediately caught on among fans and did not cause an avalanche of outrage, as was the case with Sierra's products in the past. Another innovation is the new dialogue system, also represented by icons. During the conversation, there are several basic options that will increase as the events unfold. Although there are two heroes in the game, we will only be driving Sam. Max acts as a companion, as does Sophia in Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. If we get stuck, we can ask him for advice, and although they are quite enigmatic, they usually help move the action forward. The rabbit is also useful for certain activities, e.g. only Max can extract orders from the cat's stomach at the beginning of the game, or turn off the electricity in the Tunnel of Love located in the amusement park. The game is loaded with a huge dose of humor and you can see it almost everywhere. It is worth trying to use the rabbit on all available background elements, because we will often discover funny scenes, not related to the actual action of the game. The dialogues are written in a very witty language and it is worth spending some time on them - it is not uncommon that the comments of the main characters can knock you off your feet. Graphically, the program looks good, I especially liked the twisted perspective that reminds me of another LucasArts hit, Day of the Tentacle. The soundtrack, as usual, at a very high level, but this particular company has already got us used to it a long time ago.
