April 2025
The game itself is fantastic start to finish, but the Steam Deck verification is slightly incorrect. The car shooting scenes don't work through a dock or with an external controller. I believe they work with the touchpad being used as a mouse, but that doesn't help couch gaming. You'll have to use a wireless mouse, or complete those parts on a standard PC. Otherwise the remaster is great. Steam Deck runs around 60fps maxed out in 720p. Of all the titles to get remastered this was a surprise, but extremely welcome. You can't beat the price for the hours of entertainment in this now rare genre.

Funny game, one of my favourite, I have the original on cd that I got from a magazine, bought the remaster on xbox and rebought it on Steam, when it was on sale. I love this game, it was the first game I have ever played, but it has it's issues. Because of the episodic format that the game was released on back in the day, binging through it all at one sitting or with little breaks makes the game really stale by the time someone reaches ep4, and the reused characters and places doesn't help either, but at least most of the characters are lovable enough, that I don't mind the non-stop recycling. The puzzles can be really idiotic sometimes, but that comes with the humor of the franchise, you just have to train your brain to think like Sam and Max. It's also a bummer, that the devs changed the voice actor for Bosco, but most new players aren't going to notice it, so I let it pass (that drama was years ago anyways). In short, I recommend the game, but take a somewhat long break between episodes, it helps to make the game less repetitive.
