Reviewers to Episode 4: "We love you!"

So tomorrow episode 5 comes out on GameTap, but that doesn't mean episode 4 is gone and forgotten. I won't bore you with a long list of review links this time around, but here are a few of the highlights:

  • GameTunnel has chosen Abe Lincoln Must Die as "Game of the Month" on its March Indie Game roundup. (Well, it's tied for game of the month with an RPG called Loonyland II: Winter Woods... does that make it Game of the Fortnight?) The illustrious panel also gave the episode a Gold Award. Woo!
  • After a lukewarm response to episode 3, Mixnmojo has awarded episode 4 five skulls. (It's their highest honor!) I think The Tingler likes us again.
  • Adventure Gamers' not-always-easy-to-please Evan Dickens gave the episode four and a half stars, his highest Season 1 score to date, and says it's "easily the funniest of the series."
  • GameSpy really liked the episode as well, also giving it four and a half stars and calling it "a harbinger of great things to come."
  • PC Gamer, 1UP / Games for Windows, and Joystiq have also given this episode their highest scores yet. Lots more good reviews can be found over at GameRankings.

If for some bizarre reason you're still not convinced that you need to play Abe Lincoln Must Die this very minute, maybe the much lauded War Song will inspire you? (Also available for download here.)



Obligatory marketing message: Don't forget, if you already bought one Sam & Max episode, you can get the whole Season 1 kit and kaboodle for just $26! All the info you need about this upgrade deal is right here.
