For those who missed Poker Night at the Inventory the first time around, this might not be a straight flush, but it's certainly a full house.
Maisie from NoobFeed writes: Poker Night at the Inventory might not change how you feel about poker games, but it does remind you that simple ideas can make something fun and lasting when they are combined with smart writing and memorable characters. The AI could use some work, the buy-in rules could be better, and a percentage gauge would be a nice touch, but these are all minor problems with an otherwise fun and easy game.
WTMG's Heidi Hawes: "The amount of enjoyment you’ll get from Poker Night at the Inventory depends heavily on both your love of poker and knowledge of these relics from another time."
Following Skunkape’s stellar work remastering the three Telltale seasons of Sam & Max (Save The World in 2020, Beyond Time and Space in 2021 and The Devil’s Playhouse in 2024), the studio has now turned its hand to this quirky, smaller title from the archives… and the result is excellent. It has been given a complete overhaul, with improved visuals, tweaked AI and full gamepad support. The stars of the show – Max, the hyperkinetic rabbity-thing of Sam & Max fame; Strong Bad, the boxing-gloved hero of Homestar Runner; Tycho Brahe, the sardonic headliner of Penny Arcade; and the Heavy, the fan-favourite mercenary from Team Fortress 2 – have never looked or played poker better.
