Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse
Delivers Telltale’s Biggest Multi-Platform Digital Game Launch Ever

Sam & Max’s 3rd Season Debut
Climbs the Charts on PlayStation 3, iPad and PC

Sam & Max: the Devil’s Playhouse,
the new epic 5 game comedy saga from Telltale Games Inc. is dominating the sales
charts on multiple digital channels. Launched earlier this month The Devil’s
Playhouse and its premiere episode The Penal Zone currently ranks in the top 10
sales charts in the iPad App Store and Steam, and the game is among the top 20
most downloaded titles on the PlayStation Store.

“This is the strongest debut for the
dog and bunny detective to date – and for Telltale,” said Telltale CEO, Dan
Connors. “PC and PlayStation 3 audiences have responded extremely well to the
game, and we’re happy to bring our brand of storytelling to the new iPad
audience, a community that is hungry for quality game content. The game is also
the top seller by far right now at the TelltaleGames.com store.”

The positive consumer demand has
been equaled by the media’s critical acclaim:

  • UGO.com: “Latest Sam & Max is best
    yet … Telltale at the top of their game.”

  • PlayStationLifeStyle: “It is one
    of the best titles on PSN yet, greatly surpassing many of the titles which are
    available.”

  • Kotaku: “How could I not recommend
    Sam and Max?”

  • PCWorld.com/Macworld.com: “This is
    a deep, fun, and thoroughly enjoyable game…”

Leading media sites, including
GamePro, Kotaku, Destructoid, and TIME Magazine’s tech blog Techland have all
included The Penal Zone as one of the “Top Must-Have iPad Games.”

The second episode of Sam & Max: The
Devil’s Playhouse, called The Tomb of Sammun-Mak, releases next month.
