Back on the case

| Jan 26, 2012

For Sam & Max's first outing on iPad, Telltale dusted off the point-and-click mechanics of the '80s LucasArts adventures and repackaged them for the touchscreen generation.

Now, the detective duo is back in iOS action, starring in Telltale's Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space Ep 1 for iPhone and iPad.

Using their tried-and-tested investigative technique of rubbing objects against other objects, the two crime-fighting critters have to save the world from a demon-possessed Santa Claus.

Featuring the same zany humour that fans of the series have come to expect, a hint system for when your leads dry up, and even a soundboard for composing your own catchphrases, this episode marks the beginning of a brand-new saga for the world furriest detectives.

If you have a keen eye and a good nose for clues, you can track down Sam & Max Beyond Time and Space Ep 1 on the App Store for £4.99 / $6.99.

James pivoted to video so hard that he permanently damaged his spine, which now doubles as a Cronenbergian mic stand. If the pictures are moving, he's the one to blame.
