Untrained Freelance Police Officer


I have played many games, but never played a game with a humor like this. It is called Sam and Max which comes in 2 Seasons ...

Sam & Max is a comic book first published by Steve Purcell in 1987. Sam is a laid-back but enthusiastic, kleptomaniac, dog who wears a suit and a hat. He is usually the brains of the operation, often trying to figure out a logical solution to things. He is prone to long-winded sentences filled with elaborate terminology. He rarely loses his temper, and is able to react to panic-inducing situations with extreme calm. When he does get angry, he tends to react in a violent, uncharacteristically savage manner. It is usually Max that calms him down and prevents him from acting upon his anger. Sam apparently also has a very large sweet tooth, as during many of his adventures and assignments he can be seen enjoying a multitude of frozen treats, such as popsicles and ice cream sandwiches. his full name is Samuel. Some of his favorite pastimes include driving recklessly with an expired license, shoplifting, shooting things and making prank calls.

Max is a "hyperkinetic rabbity thing with a huge jaw normally stuck in a crazed grin, showing off his razor sharp teeth. Supposedly, his life expectancy is between five and six years despite photographs of him and Sam as kids that outdate this. He enjoys violence and tends to prefer the aggressive way of solving problems. He has a slight distaste for the long stories, anecdotes and sentences that Sam consistently spouts forth, often asking Sam not to use various words. He occasionally spaces out during long scenes of exposition, as he claims to "have the attention span of a pint of yak butter." He shares Sam's enthusiasm in just about anything, especially if it involves large guns and trouble. According to the animated series, his blood pressure is 20/3000. His full name is Maximillian I. Despite his seemingly heartless personality, he believes very much in protecting Sam, though he's not above committing excessive violence on him (often commenting that when he dies, he will take Sam with him). He is also very possessive of Sam. Max also has a metal plate in his head, which is rarely mentioned unless comedically convenient. Despite being an animal himself, he is prone to animal abuse. He also enjoys tormenting the neighbors and can't go two minutes without threatening to shoot, maim, or destroy something. Since Season One Episode 4, he is the current President of the United States.

They are anti-hero vigilante private investigators, or as they like to call themselves, "freelance police". The pair live and work in New York City. They drive a seemingly indestructible black-and-white 1960 DeSoto. Max often drives, despite being unable to see over the dashboard.

Their crime fighting technique involves brandishing their oversized guns to intimidate criminals (it is not clear where Max keeps his weapon concealed as he is completely naked; when asked, Max always replies with "None of your damn business, Sam."), but more often than not they need to rely on more creative solutions to vanquish evil. When they do use firearms Sam favors a gigantic revolver, while Max prefers a Luger, though they've been known to use a large variety of weaponry. Sam and Max occasionally receive assignments from a mysterious Commissioner over the phone, but they usually just walk straight into trouble.

They always come across many character such as Bosco who is always use his disguise in order to escape from the US govt, Sybil who always takes a strange occupation. Jimmy 2 teeth a thief who is always sneaky and more wearied character you ever think off...

With these character help Sam and Max solve most wearied case ever by going places like Moon, White House and even the North Pole...

If you have mood to play a game with unique humor this game is for you, go for it.....like in the language of Max....Shot Gun....
