This time it’s personal; this time it’s Sam and Max This Time It’s Virtual! Yeah, yeah, cliche, I know. However, Sam and Max fans must know that this is now available on Quest, and I’d be tempted to invest in VR for titles like this.

So no, this won’t be covered on this channel until next year when the PSVR will have the dust removed. Instead, Quest owners can rejoice in HappyGiant and Big Sugar’s VR experience featuring the ultimate duo.

In this case, you play the new Freelance Police cadet to assist the pair. Your challenges? Solve puzzles, escape from, well, escape rooms and get involved in their ‘off-kilter world for a furious day of monster-slaying, obstacle courses, responsibly discharged firearms’. Oh – and saving the world.

Sam and Max This Time It’s Virtual! includes the characters’ creator Steve Purcell (also doing a voice for the first time), as well as other veterans, including David Nowlin and Dave Boat as Sam and Max.

Key features include:

  • Experience the two-fisted japes and tomfoolery of internationally beloved icons Sam & Max in mind-melting virtual reality!
  • Push yourself to be the best of the best of the middling, as a dog and a naked rabbity thing harangue and cajole you through a bewildering assortment of Freelance Police Academy training challenges.
  • Discover the horrible and socially relevant secrets lurking behind, under, and within Cap’n Aquabear’s rotting theme park!
  • Give evil scientists and demonic trespassers their just desserts… with sprinkles!
  • Immersion so real you can feel Sam’s breath on your neck!

Sam and Max This Time It’s Virtual! is available now on Oculus Quest, later this year for SteamVR and Viveport Infinity, then PSVR in 2022.
