Sam & Max aren’t your regular police force…they’re the Freelance Police. Sam is a no-nonsense dog detective and his pal Max is a hyperkinetic rabbity thing.

Now they’re ready for their third season of crazy madcap episodic point and click adventures! (PC version reviewed here)

It’s up to Adol to harness the power of five legendary dragons to save this magical country.
