Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse Remastered is Coming to Steam

Hey, Sam & Max fans! Get ready for some exciting news – Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse is making a comeback on Steam in 2024, all spiffed up and remastered by the awesome folks at Skunkape Games, a team of ex-Telltale pros.

In Case You Forgot

Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse is a comedy adventure game that follows the antics of the Freelance Police – a pair of animal detectives. Sam, a big dapper dog, teams up with Max, a hyperactive rabbit with supernatural powers. Together, they dive into nutty cases involving aliens, ancient artefacts, and villains from other dimensions. It’s a wild ride filled with laughs, puzzles, and action.

And remastered version isn’t just a facelift; it’s got improved graphics, better audio, smoother controls, and even some cool new content. The gang’s all here with enhanced lighting, shadows, and animations, making the game shine on modern setups.

Here’s the lowdown on the epic episodes in The Devil’s Playhouse:

1. The Penal Zone: Sam & Max jump into an alternate dimension and face off against a power-hungry gorilla general armed with psychic Toys of Power. 
2. The Tomb of Sammun-Mak: Our dynamic duo finds an ancient film reel revealing the wild adventures of their ancestors. It’s time to flip-flop between the past and present to unveil some secrets.
