Back then, digital distribution was in its infancy. Graphics and audio were highly compressed to keep download sizes low, and the games were designed to work on low-end computers to appeal to a mainstream audience.
In 2018, when Telltale went through liquidation, four of the studio’s original employees formed Skunkape Games and acquired the rights to Telltale’s Sam & Max games. We’re in the process of remastering all three seasons, but we didn’t want the originals to be lost to time.
That’s why we’ve bundled the original Season Two episodes with the Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space remaster. With this free DLC, you can play the original Season Two episodes as they were back in the day—low screen resolution, compressed audio, original Bosco voice, and all!
Due to insurmountable technical hurdles, these versions will not be updated and we can’t provide tech support. (Difficulty fixing bugs in the old game engine is a main reason we’re remastering the games in the first place!) We’re making them available for historical preservation purposes only.
