Overview

Episode 3 of an epic 5 game saga. In Episode 3, freelance shamus Sam gets steamin' mad, when someone snatches his little buddy's noodle, gunning for control of its inner powers. Now Sam's going all noir to get it back! Was it the giant gorilla? The two-bit rat? Or the fishy dame that runs the greasy-spoon? The caper is getting more and more twisty, and Sam's rolling up his sleeves, smackin' heads and throwin’ slugs to crack the case. * Episode 1: The Penal Zone * Episode 2: The Tomb of Sammun-Mak * Episode 3: They Stole Max's Brain! * Episode 4: Beyond the Alley of the Dolls * Episode 5: The City That Dares Not Sleep - Finale

They Stole Max's Brain! accentuates Sam's own special powers. While Max was away, I came to appreciate Sam on a whole new level. Disclaimers: This game was obtained via publisher and reviewed on the PC.

It's not a drastic improvement over the last game, but considering how high-quality the season has been so far, I doubt anyone is going to complain.
