• Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space 2.1.0 Update - 5 March 2026

  Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space has been updated to version 2.1.0. It's a little patch with a few little fixes, made fresh just for you.Also if you're looking for more Max in your life, we've spent the last year hard at work on an updated version of Poker Night at the Inventory, and it's just come out this week. Check it out:Patch notes for today’s Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space update (version 2.1.0):Game-wide:We updated the basement window casings on Sam & Max's office to be consistent with The Devil's Playhouse. When we were remastering The Devil's Playhouse, we realized that if we wanted to be really nerdy about it, the basement windows should have always been cased window wells. So we did it. Now when you're playing, you can imagine that old abandoned boiler room down there waiting for you the whole time.A non-remastered photo of Sam & Max in front of Brady's theater hanging in…

• Arts & Crafts Contest: Poker Night Edition - 4 February 2026

  ICYMI, our next game is a remastered version of Poker Night at the Inventory, which features four fan-favorite characters — Max (from Sam & Max), Strong Bad (from Homestar Runner), Tycho (from Penny Arcade), and The Heavy (from Team Fortress 2) — bantering over a game of Texas Hold’em. It'll be out on March 5!To celebrate, we’re expanding the scope of our (more or less) annual arts & crafts contest, which has been Sam & Max themed in the past, to include all four of these guys. (And, if you feel like it, poker!)What’s in it for me?The joy of creating art for art’s sake. Just kidding. We’ll send each winner a Poker Night at the Inventory game key for your platform of choice. How many winners, exactly? We won’t know until we see the entries!But that’s not all. For a few of our favorites, we’ll toss in a set of Poker Night themed chips that have been carefully stashed away in a team member…

• Twenty years have gone so fast… - 18 September 2025

  On September 14, 2005, Telltale Games held an evening event in a downtown San Francisco high-rise. The attendees were mainly potential investors, with a few journalists invited to hear a Big Announcement. Telltale’s first episodic adventure game, Bone: Out from Boneville, was hours away from release, and they were secretly working on CSI: 3 Dimensions of Murder, but the surprise announcement was for something else… and Steve Purcell was sitting in the audience, rocking his trademark fedora.Just after midnight, Adventure Gamers broke the news that Telltale and Steve had signed a deal to make episodic Sam & Max games—and an entire fandom wept openly.An Episodic Sociopathic LagomorphThe Sam & Max announcement made its way to the decision-makers at GameTap, a new video game streaming service owned by Turner Entertainment. The media company had found success airing old shows and films on cha…

• Zombies vs. Vampires… Can’t we have both?! - 26 May 2025

  Today Steam kicked off their Zombies vs. Vampires Fest, and Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space is in it with a 50% discount! (The soundtrack too!) https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/24214/Sam__Max_Beyond_Time_and_Space_Game__Soundtrack/ And now a rambling history lesson for those who weren’t breathlessly hanging on Telltale’s every move back in 2008… Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space was the second season of Sam & Max episodes, which came out about once a month. One criticism of the first season was that the episodes felt too “samey,” with a lot of time spent in Sam & Max's office and on their street, and the team set out to change this in Season Two. The result was five episodes set in dramatically different locales. We started at the North Pole, then jumped through the Bermuda Triangle to Easter Island, then stopped off in Stuttgart, Germany, for an episode named Night of the Raving D…

• Save Big in the Sam & Max Trilogy Sale - 17 April 2025

  Maybe… …you’ve played one or two of the Sam & Max remasters, but haven’t completed the trilogy? …you enjoyed Telltale’s Sam & Max games back in the day, but haven’t tried the spiffy new remasters? …you’ve never been on a case with the Freelance Police, but you’re intrigued? Well, we have a sale for you! And you! And you! Welcome to the Sam & Max Trilogy Sale—a weeklong celebration of the episodic adventures that put Telltale Games (of The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us fame) on the map in the early 2000s, and have recently been revived by Skunkape Games, a small crew of the original developers. (Hey, that's us!) When Telltale shut down in 2018, we acquired the rights and spruced up all three episodic Sam & Max seasons for modern platforms. And now we want you to play them!

• Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space 2.0.0 Update - 11 October 2024

  Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space has been updated to version 2.0.0, which sounds like a big huge patch, but mostly it's a few long-gestating fixes, and a new build of the game engine to fix a few deeply-rooted bugs. We published a similar patch for Sam & Max Save the World earlier this week, which is why this might all sound a bit familiar. Speaking of sounding familiar... it's that time of year again. That spoOooOoky time. You know the one: The Skunkape Halloween Contest is back! If you're in the mood to make some Sam & Max fan art and be materially rewarded for it, now's your chance! Check out the contest post for a rundown of the rules and prizes. (Spoiler: they include Sam & Max plushies from Uncute, and the still-in-development Devil's Playhouse Original Soundtrack!) Patch notes for today’s Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space update (version 2.0.0): Game-wide: Fixed instances where se…

• Let’s sing the Friendly Demon Song… and raise money for charity! - 19 December 2023

  Tomorrow, the Skunkape team and a special guest or two will take over twitch.tv/GameHistoryOrg for a festive holiday stream. 🎄🎅 🎁 First we’ll reveal the winners of our holiday contest. Then we’ll play Sam & Max: Ice Station Santa and chime in with our memories of working on Telltale’s Sam & Max games and Skunkape’s remasters. And the whole time, we’ll be raising money for an incredible cause: the Video Game History Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to preserving, celebrating, and teaching the history of video games. So far, the VGHF has raised about $38K toward their $50K goal winter fundraising goal. Let's help them get over the finish line! What’s in it for you? Besides the chance to hear about the development of the Sam & Max games from people who made them, we have donation incentives! We’ve dug through the vault (aka our closets) to find an eclectic mix of swag to appeal to the…

• Announcing the Sam & Max Holiday Contest - 29 November 2023

  The past two years, we’ve held a Halloween arts and crafts contest for the Sam & Max community. This is a continuation of a tradition that started at Telltale, and we love seeing what you all come up with. Here are last year’s winners. Then this year we were so busy working on The Devil’s Playhouse… we forgot about the contest! Good news, Sam & Max fans. The contest has risen from the dead AND we have news about The Devil’s Playhouse! The Power of Christmas Compels You We’re calling this one the “Oops, We Missed Halloween So Let’s Do a Holiday Contest Instead” contest. Here’s how it works: the holiday season is upon us. Steve Purcell is a wonderful person who gave us all the gift of Sam & Max. We really should return the favor, don’t you think? If you could make Steve a Christmas gift, what would it be? Get creative! The only rules are that your entry has to relate to Sam & Max in some…

• The Sam & Max Halloween Contest—2022 Edition - 17 October 2022

  Hey there, Sam & Max community! It's the spooky time of year again—the time when the Skunkape team innocently proposes a Halloween contest and gets bombarded with so much awesome fan art and other creative goodies that we have to stop all work for a week just to sift through it and vote on our favorittes. In other words, it's time for the 2nd Annual Skunkape Sam & Max Halloween Contest (loosely based on the Telltale "Do What You Will" Halloween contests of the mid-aughts). Here's how it works: Send pics (or other files as appropriate) of your arts & craftsy Sam & Max themed entry to [email protected] by 11:59pm Pacific time on Sunday, October 30. If your file is too big to play nicely with email, sending us a link to a Google Drive, Dropbox, etc. works too. Also tell us how you want to be credited if we share your entry.

• Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space 1.0.5 Update - 11 July 2022

  Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space version 1.0.5 is now live on Steam, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and GOG! This is a tiny update that fixes a few bugs we found when replaying, or bugs pointed out by you, the viewers at home. If anyone was just losing their minds about Hugh Bliss's spike collar not being around his neck in the Cooking Show diorama, you can finally sleep well tonight. All Episodes Fixed Rat on Street floating, jump animations not playing correctly. Updated driving music with the version from Save the World, which has some mix cleanups that didn't make the jump to Beyond Time and Space initially. Episode 201 Fixed Jimmy and boxing glove shadow staying on screen when Max kicks him into the air. Added missing longer version of the "look at" line that plays when looking at the plane in Santa's Workshop. Episode 204 The ambient Cow Bosco and Sam dialog wasn't playing on the UFO. Now…

• Sam & Max Season Two Original Episodes now available as free DLC - 8 April 2022

  https://store.steampowered.com/app/1909350 Punch your time cards and hop into the nearest elevator, because it's time to travel back to 2007 (or maybe 2008) and play some old video games! Here’s our long-overdue post announcing that the original Sam & Max Season Two episodes are now available as free DLC! After you download the DLC, the next time you start Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space you’ll see a launcher like this: From here, you can play the remaster, jump to any of the original episodes, or press the tantalizing Bonus Features button. The bonus features are video extras that accompanied the episodes’ original launch and were included on the Sam & Max Season Two DVD that Telltale offered back in 2008. (For now the button just leads to a YouTube page, but an entire website is being built very slowly.) And remember, if you already own the originals on Steam you can still access the…

• Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space 1.0.4 Update - 22 March 2022

  Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space version 1.0.4 is now live on Steam! This is a small update that fixes a bunch of little bugs and quality of life issues across the game. Most of the bugfixes in this update are little bits of lighting polish we didn't get done for the original release. You may not notice any of them specifically, but hopefully these scenes just seem a little nicer when you replay. Enjoy! All Episodes Fixed pause menu button text not being perfectly centered. Episode 202 Improved shadow quality on Sam & Max when talking to Moai and Lincoln on Easter Island. Fixed Sam's head disappearing for one frame when using the Easter Island fountain the first time. Fixed Sam visible at bottom of screen in shot of pressure gauge after completing prophecies in Chimp Colony (SM2-1833). Episode 203 Improved shadow quality in Street (Switch only). Improved lighting during shootout in Stin…

• Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space 1.0.3 Update - 5 January 2022

  Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space version 1.0.3 is now live on Steam (and Xbox and Nintendo Switch)! This is a small update that fixes a bunch of little bugs and quality of life issues across the game. Season-wide: Fixed situations where selecting a character to start an interactive dialog would seem to cancel out, with Sam walking away instead of talking to them. (This was related to issues with joysticks not being fully centered, and Sam imperceptibly walking away from the character you selected, rudely choosing to bail out on the dialog.) Fixed dialog selection UI disappearing in the driving mini-games when time runs out while choices are active. Up-resed texture for shark, Hawaiian t-shirt and tiki head in Stinky's Diner. Italian & Spanish translation fixes in subtitles and game textures. Fixed spelling of "Pharaoh" on Street billboard. Fixed unreadably low res text in bottom corner…

• Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space Remastered Is Here - 8 December 2021

  Hey folks! Our second Sam & Max remaster, Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space, is now out on Nintendo Switch, Xbox, and right here on Steam. Maybe you have a few questions before you hit that buy button? Luckily we have a few answers… Dude, where’s my discount? Last year, when Sam & Max Save the World came out, we were able to offer a special discount to owners of the original Sam & Max Season One. We wanted to do that this time for Season Two owners, but sadly Steam doesn’t support this type of legacy discount anymore. Instead, we’re offering a Save the World + Beyond Time and Space bundle for 25% off. https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/24043/Save_the_World__Beyond_Time_and_Space_Bundle/ This is a “complete the set” bundle, which means you only pay for the items you don’t own yet. If Sam & Max Save the World is already in your Steam library, this bundle will get you just Sam & Max: Bey…

• Telltale Games' second Sam & Max season Beyond Time and Space is being remastered - 17 November 2021

  Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space, the second season of Telltale Games' anarchic series of episodic point-and-click adventures, is getting the remaster treatment on 8th December for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC. Inspired by Steve Purcell's cult comic series and first released in 2007, Beyond Time and Space once against follows the largely ludicrous adventures of crime-fighting dog and bunny duo Sam & Max - who both made their video game debut 15 years earlier in LucasArts' point-and-click classic Sam & Max Hit the Road - over the course of five episodes. "Sam & Max are back on the crime beat in a showdown with Santa Claus, a race to subdue a giant volcano, and a face-off with a Eurotrash vampire," teases remaster developer Skunkape Games. "And then things get even weirder." Read more

• Announcing Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space Remastered! - 17 November 2021

  It’s been 350 days since Sam & Max Save the World came out, and during this time we’ve been (mostly) quiet, but don’t be fooled! The Skunkape team has been cranking away at Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space (aka Season Two), and today we’re flinging open the reinforced bulletproof door so you can peek in and see what’s happening in our secret game-remastering bunker. But first... We just announced that Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space will release on Steam (PC), Nintendo Switch, and Xbox on December 8! We’re not doing preorders on Steam this time, but add the game to your wishlist and mark your calendar, because launch day is only three weeks away. You might be wondering if we’ll offer a legacy discount to owners of the original Sam & Max Season Two, like we did for Season One owners last year. Unfortunately Steam no longer supports this type of discount. We’re just as bummed about it as…
