Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This adapts Telltale's first episodic Sam & Max season, where the revival of LucasArts-style adventure games began. Dave Grossman co-wrote the original Monkey Island games.
The 'Season of Sam & Max' release model pioneered episodic gaming on PC, directly influencing later Telltale hits like The Walking Dead. This special is essentially a pilot for that revolution.
