Rating Summary

Players control a wily dog and private detective named Sam in this whimsical "point-and-click" adventure game. As players attempt to rescue their partner Max, they will encounter several irreverent characters and hear jokes with suggestive and slapstick references: "So, uh . . . looks like you and Lincoln had an, err, eventful honeymoon"; "It's like lying in a puddle of carnival vomit"; "Can I get you a magazine or something?" (as a chicken strains to lay an egg). In one scene, a character briefly mentions that he just "poured himself another fifth of pineapple schnapps." Throughout the game, a large monster can be seen attacking a city, and a few sequences depict oversized guns being pointed at characters. The words "a*s" and "damn" can be heard in the dialogue.
