Will the "SBCG4AP" series be easier or harder than the "Sam and Max" series?

Based on the playable demo, (http://telltalegames.com/strongbad/) it should be extremely hard.;)

The difficulty level is about the same, for the main story part of the game, anyway. Like with Sam & Max, there's an in-game hint system which you can turn up if you want an easier experience, or turn down (or off) for a harder experience. When the hint system is turned on, the game sense when you're stuck and characters in the game give you subtle hints to point you in the right direction.

In addition to the storyline, SBCG4AP has a lot of optional activities that you can do on the side - finding collectibles, making the Teen Girl Squad comic, and other achievements that can sometimes be pretty tricky or well hidden in the game. So in that sense, if you want to get the best "awesomeness ranking" and see everything the game has to offer, you might find it a bit trickier than Sam & Max.

I guess the bottom line is that the games have similarities, but in some ways they're also very different. The stuff you do in SBCG4AP is really tailored to the Homestar Runner world and experience.

Yes! A difficult-ish game, at last!
