Erkki Posted January 17, 2009 I must admit, the Strong Bad games are better than I thought based on the first demo! And they are longer than the Sam & Max episodes, I think? At least it took me more than half a day to get through the second one. Some of the mini games are nice (I especially liked the strategy game at the end of ep. 2), but the collectibles stuff I don't care about. I don't mind that it's there, though, for those who would. I bought the whole season after receiving an e-mail about the special 20$ offer for those who bought Sam & Max. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toblix Posted January 17, 2009 Yeah, I'm thinking about doing that, too. I still haven't gotten a clear impression of what kind of game Strongbad is, though. Is it pure point and click? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Posted January 17, 2009 I think Strong Bad gets a bad rap for having too many non-adventure parts, but I'd say that it has about as many "arcade" sequences as Sam & Max did. If you didn't mind the driving sequences in Season 2, or Whack-da-Ratz in Episode 3 of Season 1, you should be able to wrap your brain around Strong Bad. There are mini-games in there, too, but a lot of them are entirely optional to play. Also it should be noted that I work at Telltale Games, so maybe my opinion is tainted or whatever.

lobotomy42 Posted January 18, 2009 I bought the first two episodes for Wii. I keep meaning to buy the later ones, too, but lack of time / money is troublesome. They were pretty good! I finished them, which is more than I can say for most games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thyroid Posted January 19, 2009 They're really good. Not as good as Sam and Max: S2, but so far they've been great. I'm at Ep 3 right now. I dunno why they get a bad rep, they've been nothing but fun. The race part in Episode One was hilarious - that could only have come from Mike Stemmle. The second one is great too, Chuck Jordan shines. I just love this idea of having different people handle the different episodes, it's refreshing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thyroid Posted April 5, 2009 This is a major bump. For those of you still wondering whether or not the game is worth getting, the End-All of All Opinions - the Mixnmojo review - is up. I reviewed Eps 2 + 3. And we say it is good, and thus it is. Mojo's word is law. Seriously play the game, it's great and deserves a thread with > 4 posts, K?
