Sam & Max Save the World Remastered Review (Xbox One)
Sam and Max Save the World Remastered is good game and a good remake, despite what the hardcore fans of the original release state due to the new voice of Bosco. If you liked the original, you’ll love the remaster. If you are new to the genre, it is a must play peace that will keep you occupied for at least 15 hours. But… If you never liked the larger-than-life humor of the series, the often dry and dark jokes, or you grew up watching South Park there is nothing here for you. Sam and Max Save the World Remastered is a reminder of a different era, and what was in your face 15 years ago, not will feel outdated or childish. Still the remaster offers a very warm and cozy trip back to the golden age of point and click adventure games. Review code provided by the publisher.
