THE ADVENTURE COMPANY AND JOWOOD ANNOUNCE

Hilarious duo makes eagerly awaited appearance in retail stores for the first time in over 10 years!
Toronto, Canada. July 31, 2007.
The Adventure Company and JoWooD Group are pleased to announce that Sam & Max Season One for Windows® is now shipping to stores throughout North America for a suggested retail price of $29.99 USD. Fans everywhere have been eagerly awaiting this retail release, which comes with a CD full of
bonus extras and a full-sized printed poster featuring artwork by Sam & Max creator Steve Purcell.
Over the last two decades, Sam & Max have gained immense popularity in a number of formats, from independent comics to a popular graphic adventure game, a Saturday morning cartoon, and most recently, Telltale Games’ downloadable episodic series, Sam & Max Season One. These episodes have now been collected into a single retail product, making Sam & Max Season One the equivalent of a television series' DVD "box set" – a first in episodic gaming. Starting next week, the game will appear in North American stores including Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Target, Circuit City, and Comp USA. A European release will follow in September, featuring full German and French
localizations, as well as Italian subtitles.
“The Adventure Company/JoWooD’s release of Sam & Max Season One for Windows marks the return of a tremendously popular franchise to the retail market,” said Albert Seidl President and CEO for the JoWooD Group. “The retail release will reach a wider audience than ever and combined with Telltale’s recent announcement of Sam & Max Season Two, we anticipate the already huge fan base of Sam & Max to grow exponentially!”
