Samageddon Is Coming Tuesday, July 20!
Posted by Telltale Tom July 14, 2010

Stinky from Beyond the Alley of the Dolls

That feeling of doom and foreboding isn't because something bad is about to happen. In fact it's just the opposite! Episode 4 of Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse is set to lay down the "smax" (we mean it's available) this coming Tuesday, July 20.

In this last episode before the epic season finale, the forces that have been pulling the Freelance Police's strings begin revealing themselves in...Beyond the Alley of the Dolls, a tale that will change the way you look at Sam & Max forever! An onslaught of oversized canine clones akin to a zombie apocalypse has our heroes running for cover in a barricaded ramshackle diner as the game kicks off. And it gets even stranger from there.

Find out who can possibly be responsible for this march of flabby dog flesh. Is it the creepy old sorcerer? The creepier space ape? The even creepier diner owner? Or some other creep?

The game releases for PC, Mac and PlayStation Network in the U.S. on Tuesday. It should also be there for Europe when the PlayStation store releases their weekly content on Wednesday.

If you haven't been playing The Devil's Playhouse just yet, jump in and catch up now!...in time for the biggest Sam & Max finale ever, which everyone will surely be talking about!

I don't know who wrote this (considering Telltale Tom isn't exactly a big name around here) but you did a good job writing this post.

Your-Ac-cent-sucks. It WORKS!

Why do the next two games have to release whilst I am without internet. I Will be in Canada all next week, then most of the rest of the summer will be spent with my mom, who has no internet yet

Happy to hear the game's coming out in less than a week -- seven days earlier than I had thought, huzzah! -- but the current front page? Freaking. Me. The hell. Out.

Brrr.

On a related note: Yay, guns!

Does anybody know if TTG has quit publishing Sam & Max games on iPad?!?! I got a tast playing the first episode, and none of the following were released for iPad! Are they just messing with our emotions?!
Comment by HSAB
July 15, 2010, 7:32 am
I agree with Hatley. An episode of epic preportions like this needs a trailer..

did i just cream in my pants... wait i dont wear pants..
nor do i have any jelly filled doughnuts ..

SAM...?
(max's head is spinning in 360 degrees)
Is this a normal reaction to a relatively small part of a huge spectrum of ourselves?
and..
Can one really know us in just this episode? I hope the kiddies at home have been paying attention because the samageddon is COMMING!

C'mon Joeldee, give us a clue... Is Sam & Max ever coming back to iPad? Do i need to buy for other platforms? All I want is to be a Sam & Max players, but I can't because it is not released in my platform, and you guys don't tell me for sure if it is ever coming back!! Pleeeeeease...

This seems like a great episode of Sam & Max. I think that it could be the best one yet!
Although, the SAM clones are a bit WEIRD and SCARY...

@HSAB:

We had an opportunity to get fresh Telltale content on to the iPad for the platform launch in April, and The Penal Zone Sam & Max episode became our lead title.

We’re been releasing additional Telltale content on the platform to gauge how audiences are receiving these (Wallace & Gromit episode earlier in the month and Puzzle Agent coming soon).

We don’t have dates that we can point to for other releases right now.

July 15, 2010, 4:12 pm
Thanks Joeldee. That is good to know. Although TTG should probably update the S&M ipad website where you promise one episode per month for the ipad. On a side note. I love the Wallace Gromit title on ipad, well done. Cant wait to see puzzle agent. Hope you decide to move forward with the S&M releases. And also the full Wallace & Gromit season. As a frwquent traveler, nothing better than a good ipad game. I dont even take my computer either any longer. Cheers!
