I am still ticked off at Telltale for deviously dumbing down the puzzles in all their games, but the quality, inventiveness and cleverness on display in this episode are undeniable

Ending with a patented twisted ending with a twist, The Tomb of Sammun-Mak is yet another great point & click adventure of the hilarious and bizarre lives of the Freelance Police, to be continued in episode three, They Stole Max's Brain!

The Tomb of Sammun-Mak is a really polished, innovative adventure that adds some brilliant ideas to a too often immobile genre. This second episode of the third season is one of the best ever delivered by TellTale.

Is it possible to beat the previous part? Yes, The Tomb of Sammun-Mak is even better then its predecessor and Tell-tale is erupting with great ideas – hope they'll keep pace till end of the season. [Issue#192]

The puzzles and jokes are well done and, even though the cliffhanger resolution felt completely incidental, I'm definitely looking forward to what comes next.

This retrospective is pleasing, and it doesn't reserve resources to offer new challenges, reinventing itself constantly.

The perfect Sam & Max episode is still yet to be made, but in terms of puzzles this one is hard to beat.

[Sam&Max Season 3 - SteamPC - 9/10] Point and click adventure goodness with Detectives Sam and Max using new twists. The writers succeeded in creating more interesting puzzles and interesting and successful story mechanics - Simultaneous Multiple Universes - Present Past and Future coexisting in your Brain - and to top it all off they worked in some special powers for Max. The unusual irreverent humor is Present and In Your Face. Add to Fart. Bingo. [Released 2010 and played four years later]

Continues to be innovative! Very cool puzzles and overall solving mechanic in this episode. Also, this season so far really feels continuous. My favorite ending (?) is here :)
