This weekend, I finally did something I’ve wanted to do my entire life… I played and beat the original Sam and Max Hit the Road. I didn’t have a gaming PC growing up, so I missed out on a lot of point and click adventures. I caught up on as many as I could once I got one; the Monkey Island games, Leisure Suit Larry, even the Telltale Sam and Max games. But never the original. Growing up, I’d always read about it in gaming magazines, in top 10 lists, in website essays. I dreamed of the day where I’d finally get to experience for myself that beautifully animated spritework, that witty and scathing sense of humor, the mad-cap detective romp with inventive puzzles… And finally, I can say I did it. I didn’t just play, but I BEAT Sam and Max Hit the Road. The game that eluded me for so long, even as a longtime fan of Sam and Max. I beat the game I wanted for my entire childhood.

It was all right. Didn’t really like it, to be honest.

Hope you all have a happy Valentine’s Day! See you on Friday!
