Sam & Max Save the World

Sam & Max Save the World is rated T for Teen by the ESRB with Cartoon Violence, Crude Humor, Mild Language, Suggestive Themes, and Use of Alcohol. This is a point-and-click adventure game in which players assume the role of private detectives (Sam and Max) through a series of case-solving episodes. As players follow each episode, they can interact with characters, solve puzzles, and make choices to progress the narrative. Some interactions lead to instances of cartoony violence: a character punched in the face with boxing gloves; a bowling ball dropped on a character's head; a character firing an over-sized pistol at vehicles and other characters. The dialogue contains some suggestive material and innuendo (e.g., “I didn't have sex with that woman…I did, but I didn't inhale”; “I'm not going to lie, I like them bosomy”; “Hey Bosco, wanna rub my unicorn?”); some sequences reference erectile disfunction; and one scene depicts a Hot Bunny adult magazine on a store's rack. Instances of crude humor also appear in the game: a man urinating himself; a talking chicken eating cow dung. One sequence depicts a character drinking a bottle of vodka and acting drunk (e.g., swaying, slurred speech). The word “a*s” is heard in dialogue.
