I already downloaded Sam & Max season 2 today, but just checked out the trial for this game.

It's a really artsy point and click game from 2K games.

I had alot of fun with the first 3 chapters it lets you play, think I might purchase the full game.

Anybody else give this a shot?

I'm wondering what others think as well, however, I'm going to download the demo now.

I love the art style of the game, the gameplay is pretty simplistic though.

Edit: That being said, I really do enjoy the game. I purchased it last night and hope to play it when I get home.

I played through the demo. I thought the music was really nice. I have a thing for ambient emotional tunes. It really adds to the feel of the game. I'm really thinking about purchasing it. And the gameplay is very simplistic as FlamingHobo said.

I've fallen in love with the game, but collecting all the bones on the balloon level is a bitch.

I played this at PAX and it was awesome, I'm looking forward to downloading this in the immediate future.

I ended up buying tonight! Such a nice game! Maybe we can post some tips on finding the bones here? There are not so many resources for this game online. The music is relaxing and good!!

The game is very cool, and I love the artstyle. The only problem I had, is that it's pretty short, and easy to beat. I think i completed it in 2 - 2 ½ hours, but those hours was well spent. I would say buy, because it's a very awesome game. Even though the character (Axel) says nothing, he is still a very charismatic (?) person. Definetely worth the 800MSP, and these games should be suported ^^

I like the whole feel of the game, but after playing through the Demo i'm not sure i want to purchase the whole game

Very informative review, this has pretty much slipped under my radar until seeing the quick look but it looks very charming and would be a nice change of pace from the action heavy recent releases, I'll need to grab the trial and give it try.

Im not sure if its my type of game being very slow paced, but I will say that the look of it I really love regardless. The way Axel talks, and just the way the world looks as a whole, the game looks beautiful.
