Sam and Max
From MIwiki
Sam & Max are a cartoon duo of characters created by Steve Purcell. Purcell worked as one of the graphic-designers on The Secret of Monkey Island and Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge. As a tribute the characters make cameo appearances in all four games of the series. Sam & Max originally starred in their own comic-strip and were later made into a game by LucasArts under the title Sam & Max Hit the Road.
Appearances
Sam & Max are featured in all four games:
- The Secret of Monkey Island: One of the idols near the Giant Monkey Head looks like Sam & Max.
- Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge: Costumes of Sam & Max can be seen in the costume shop on Booty Island.
- The Curse of Monkey Island: The cameo is only visible in Mega Monkey Mode. During the light-puzzle in the theatre two spotlights will create the likeness of Sam and Max respectively on stage.
- Escape from Monkey Island: Mr. Sam N. Max is one of the possible aliases for Pegnose Pete.
