Funny jokes, brilliant storyline and superb voice acting.
By now we have established that the main theme of the season is hypnotics and that slowly the story is building up. In this penultimate episode, the story is nearly at the end. A pair of virtual-reality goggles that lets you into a massively multiplayer online game called Reality 2.0 is the hypnotic device this time around. The enemy? The internet. Reality 2.0 is the best game in the season so far, if only for its genius storyline.
The problem with the last two episodes is that the speech and environments were being reused over and over. Telltale have now listened to their fans and have recorded fresh new dialogue for this game when you click on things in places like the office and Bosco's store, which although not exactly the biggest feature, really does make the game more enjoyable to play through.
Reality 2.0 is exactly the same as reality (hence the title), but in a digital world. This means you'll get to visit familiar places such as Bosco and Sybil's in reality and in its virtual counterpart. Puzzles have to be solved by getting items from each version of the location, which makes them more interesting. The puzzles are also slightly more challenging then they have been before, which fans have been asking for. You will also meet people you've met in previous games in the virtual reality world, which is neat.
This time the humour is at its best. There are some really great nods to certain things, such as when you have to have a fight with some slime or when you find out what Bosco is doing in the virtual world. You have to take your hat off to the voice actors who have retained such brilliance throughout the whole season.
Sam and Max: Reality 2.0 is the best game of the season so far and has set a high level to beat for the next episode, which will obviously hold some big secret or revelation regarding the hypnotic storyline. Sam and Max Season 1 has certainly been a good season so far, but Reality 2.0 makes it even better.
