Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse Episode 5: The City That Dare Not Sleep
The final episode is a bang-up, throw every character in the cauldron and explode it
like the end of a Fourth-of July fireworks finale. TellTale Games has outdone themselves.
This whole series has been about Max - and in the final episode he makes it to become a Max-Godzilla.
Of course this necessitates a voyage into the Belly of the Beast.
Again, the voices are a treat - particularly with all the walk-ons.
If you play it as I do - the easy level - there are plenty of hints - not
so obvious as to insult your intelligence - more like, "Sheesh, I should have gotten that".
As with good things that come to an end - I am already missing the anticipation.
Guess I'll have to replay, Puzzle Agent.
The game is currently out on the iPad the PC and Mac and you can subscribe
