Telltale Games has announced that the Sam and Max season finale episode, "Sam and Max Episode 6: Bright Side of the Moon," has been released through its website.
"Since the series' debut last October, the overarching storyline in Sam & Max: Season 1 has revolved around an increasingly insidious mind control plot. In "Bright Side of the Moon," Sam & Max must blast into outer space to infiltrate a utopian lunar retreat and confront the mastermind behind the scheme. But when the crime-fighting duo's special brand of chaos intersects with a disturbingly toxic tranquility, have these freelance police finally met their match?
"With huge dollops of creative frenzy tossed into episode 6, the Telltale crew nicely tops off a great season,” says Sam & Max creator Steve Purcell. "I'm really pleased." Telltale's Design Director Dave Grossman adds, "Bright Side of the Moon is the snuggly-fitting cap on the Serious toothpaste of Season 1. I feel clean."
Downloadable versions of all six episodes are now available at www.telltalegames.com. Individual episodes may be purchased for $8.95, while the full season of six episodes sells for $34.95 (a savings of almost $20 over the individual episode price). Anyone who has already purchased an individual episode can upgrade to the full season for $26, as described at
telltalegames.com.
Customers who purchase the complete season of downloads from Telltale (either for $34.95 or via the $26 upgrade path) are eligible to receive the season on DVD for just shipping and handling. This disc, which will be packaged in a slipcase with a new original cover by Sam & Max creator Steve Purcell, will start shipping in June. Additional details and ordering instructions can be found at
