Turns out Sam & Max is pretty great! Sam & Max? You ever hear about that one? I'm only 30 years late.

The jokes are still great; there's a lot of good specific gags, but I think it's the overall vibe and the Sam/Max relationship that carries it the most.

Seems like this was one of the first games where Lucasarts abandoned their original UI for something a lot more like Sierra's. For how much their approaches got contrasted to each other, it's kind of funny seeing them directly adopt Sierra's method of interacting with the game world.
