Sam & Max Hit the Road Collector's Edition (PC)

Point, click, and collect. The Sam & Max Hit the Road Collector's Edition for PC is a tribute to one of LucasArts' most brilliantly unhinged adventure games, packed with extras that feel like they fell right out of the game world. The physical disc comes in a Digipak alongside a deluxe edition of the original box, manual, hint book, and art book combo that will make any PC gaming historian's heart skip.

The mini reprint of the "On the Road" comic connects the game back to its Steve Purcell comic origins. Then things get wonderfully weird. A "Case File" Hit the Road edition, Circus Day pass, World of Fish fridge magnet, piece of twine on peg rack cardboard, and a Conroy Bumpus hit single mini CD are all pulled straight from the game's absurd universe.

The crown jewel might be the inclusion of the actual Sam & Max Hit the Road board game as a playable game board with pieces and dice. This is in-universe authenticity taken to its logical, hilarious extreme. For PC collectors, Sam & Max Hit the Road represents a golden age when adventure games were king and LucasArts could do no wrong.

This collector's edition treats that legacy with exactly the right mix of reverence and irreverence, which is really the only way Sam and Max would have it. A freelance police essential.
