Don't worry if you missed the first episode – this is much more standalone than Sam & Max episodes. And the setup is basically Sam & Max slotted around Homestar's decade-old web comic. Like S&M, environments are lush and the puzzles lean towards the easy side, but as a pint-sized comedy show (with lots of wonderfully animated characters and scenery to click) Strong Bad is an excellent evening's worth of entertainment.
This game's also funnier than TellTale's other series; the humour's definitely more Viz than The New York Times. Replacing Snake Boxer is the excellent Double Dragon piss-take, Maths Brothers, and if you don't chuckle your way through Strong Bad's second episodic outing then there's something deeply wrong with you.
AMO has just reviewed all five episodes of Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People on Nintendo Wii:
"Telltale Game’s first attempt at making a game for a console (alongside a PC version), Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People did one of two things: if you were like me, you probably saw it and thought it looked bright and funny, maybe staring a wrestler with a Mexican accent and involving all kinds of shenanigans. For anyone who would spare a bit of time to check out Homestarrunner.com though, it was a dream come true. And so, while it may be a bit late, let’s take a look back at The Brother Chaps’ and Telltale Games’ joint game “for cool and attractive people – but you can play too!”"
From Gamertell:
"Telltale Inc. today (February 11, 2010) confirmed during the Macworld 2010 expo that it will, indeed, be releasing games for Mac.
Even better, the releases begin today (February 11, 2010) with Tales of Monkey Island."
Games can also vote on the next Telltale series style game to be release in March for Mac.
Gamertell is reporting that it has reliable information that Telltale may be planning on releasing its entire library of games for Mac.
The company's current titles are available for Windows and some are also available for Wii and/or Xbox 360.
"Telltale’s current lineup includes the Sam & Max series Tales of Monkey Island, Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People, Bone and Wallace and Gromit’s Grand Adventures..."
It will only be interesting when NEW games are going to be developed for the Mac.
