Sam & Max Hit the Road is a graphic adventure video game released by LucasArts during the company's adventure games era. The game was originally released for MS-DOS in 1993 and for Mac OS in 1995. A 2002 re-release included compatibility with Windows. The game is based on the comic characters of Sam and Max, the "Freelance Police", an anthropomorphic dog and "hyperkinetic rabbity thing". The characters, created by Steve Purcell, originally debuted in a 1987 comic book series. Based on the 1989 Sam & Max comic On the Road, the duo take the case of a missing bigfoot from a nearby carnival, traveling to many American culture tourist sites to solve the mystery.
Runs well on modern hardware.

This game is the bomb! Literally it is so expressive, so well made, Sam & Max are a timeless duo, you will be smiling the whole way through the game. The only downside for me is that I wanted to screenshot everything, if that counts as one.
One of the funniest games I've ever played. Some puzzles may be frustrating, but still worth it.
Would you like to Hit the Road! Well hop in and enjoy the first game in the Sam & Max series! A point-and-click adventure with lots of humor and charm. Take a minute and appreciate the music and voice work… if you’re stuck, look up a guide! It’s not gunna kill you…
