IDX11 +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Introduction to this FAQ and the game | IDX01 | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Sam & Max Hit the Road is one of the good old adventure games of long lost times If you wonder how to get this game, I cannot help you, I still got my copy from times this was still in store. I'm sure there are sites you can download it from, but since I cannot support software piracy, I cannot give you links. If you can give me sites on which this game can be bought/downloaded from WITHOUT VIOLATING COPYRIGHTS mail me, and I'll add those to this FAQ. Also note that since this game is old you may NOT be able to play it on modern machines. You may need an emulator to play it. One of the best out there is DOSBox. Download it from: http://www.dosbox.com I recomment only to use this FAQ when you are stuck, or else this game will be no challenge at all. If you are stuck look at the index on what you are doing and look at the IDX code. Open a search window (Ctrl-F in Windows and Linux and Apple-F in MacOS). Well, that's all folks... Let's get started on this +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | HQ | IDX02 | +------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ In the game you control Sam, however you can use Max by either grabbing him and point a target with him, or by selecting him from the inventory. - First check the mousehole to get yourself some cash - Take the blacklight from the closet Some optional stuff is to use the dart-board or to feed Max' ant farm. - When you're done here, leave the building and go outside - Use Max on the cat If you want a quick laugh, go into the store at the corner of the street. - Enter you car and be ready to get on the road. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+ | Snuckey's | IDX03 | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+ You can buy some silly things at the Snuckey stores, like a car bomb game, dress up dolls and shit like that. It's all optional, but it is kinda funny to collect. One of the shops has a cup lying. Pick it up. You can also get a box of pecan-candies. Take that too. When Max complaints he wants to go the bathroom talk to the attendant and ask him if Max may go to the bathroom. He'll allow you to and give Max the key. Now go out quickly and speak to Max before he returns the key. Get him to keep the key. That makes you ready for this part. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+ | The Carnival | IDX04 | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+ - Show your orders to the firebreather - Pick up the bigfoot hair and exit north - Play the Wak-A-Rat game. If you win you get a flashlight as prize. - Take the magnifying lens from the Wak-A-Rat stand - Put the blacklight in the flashlight - Tell the guy sitting next to the Cone Of Tragedy you want a ride. - After the ride check your inventory and see that all your items have gone. - Ask the guy next to the cone about your stuff and he'll give you a claim ticket for the lost and found. - Go to the lost and found (close to the entrance) and reclaim your stuff. Along with it you got a magnet fish. Look at that fish to get a new location on the world map. - Now enter the Tunnel of Love - Use the flashlight to see spots otherwise invisible in the dark - When you get past a fusebox, use Max on it to stop the ride - At the right statue pull its beard to open the back door - Go through it. - Give the kid the pecon-candy and he'll tell you how Bruno and Trixie disappered. He'll also tell you about Shuv-Ool, his uncle. With this story the largest ball of twine on earth. You'll also get a crowbar. - Use the switch to get the Tunnel Of Love moving again - Leave - Now find Trixie's camper - Use the crowbar to open it - Open the closet - Pick up the calender inside for another new location - Open the box for a neat custume - Go to the freak show tent - Pick up the claw-in-a-jar - Leave the carnival and go to the Snuckey's. - Have the attendant to get the claw out of the jar - Now go to the Gator Golf. - Get the ball retriever here and go to the World's biggest ball of Twine +----------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+ | Biggest Ball of Twine in the World | IDX05 | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+ - Enter the small hut at the bottom of the twine - Attach the claw to the ball retriever - Attach the fish to this combo - Use it to get a ring out of the twine - Now go outside and ride the tram to reach the upper part - Enter the building - Use the loose wires on the telescope - Talk to the telekenetic guy and get him to give you a bent tool - Use the elevator to get down - Go back to your car.

Sam will automaticly cross it. - Open the door to free max (a hidden door will be revealed), and Max will give you some bigfoor hair - Open the newly revealed door - Pick up the snowglobe inside (leads to a new location). Well the mystery vortex is the next stop. +----------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+ | Mystery Vortex | IDX08 | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+-------+ - Enter the vortex You may see a lot of doors here. Shuv-Oohl is behind one of them, which one it is, is diffrent each game. You are either too small or too big to enter those doors. If you enter by the mirror you can set the colors of the magnets to either red, yellow and blue, or combine them to get white, purple, orange and green. Try to set them to the door color you like to try.

We got already three of those items. (At least when you followed my FAQ). One is still missing. For that one do the next things - Have the telekenetic at the ball of twine to bend your screwdriver - Use it to remove the cork from the screwdriver - Go to the upside down room in the mystery vortex - Step in the mini-vortex - While you are on the ride, use the snowglobe to catch some of the vortex' power and use the cork to lock it in. Now we got all we need. Go back to the party site to the yard with the four totems. From there is a way (extremely hard to spot) to a small pool where the bigfoot chief is waiting for you. Give him the next items to activate the totems: TOTEM #1: The snowglobe with mystery vortex power TOTEM #2: The tooth of the T-Rex from the bungee site TOTEM #3: The John Muir vegitable TOTEM #4: Conroy Bumpus' pillow Doing that will end this game. CONGRATULATIONS! YOU COMPLETED SAM & MAX HIT THE ROAD! While the credits are running you can shoot serveral things.

This also goes for alternate boss techniques. AND NEVER FORGET TO TELL ME WHICH FAQ OF MINE YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT! I get a lot of mails in which I must guess which FAQ it is we're talking about, and since I'm very busy as a contributor for GameFAQs, and ocasionally other sites, I have quite a lot of FAQs here. So it will help me a lot when I know which FAQ/Game it is you're talking about. :) And one last thing. Below are remarks I got a lot about my FAQs. Some are funny, and some are just plainly too stupid for words. I don't want to be an arrogant bastard or anything, but some of them tire me a lot. So here are those mails with my standard replies: M: Fix your English A: Some people say they hardly hear the diffrence between me and an English speaking fellow. Others say it sucks. Well, I honestly don't care in which category you are. English is NOT my first language. If I spoke my own language you probably couldn't read my FAQs at all. M: HEY IDIOT! FIX YOUR FAQ! A: Anyone who sends mail like this won't receive a reply. In fact they will be banned from ever mailing me again. I can understand you do not agree with my technique. There are as many as there are people. I can also agree you detected that I made a mistake. Well, I'm human you know. Making mistakes is part of my nature, as much as it's yours. If you detect errors in my FAQ you can tell me about it in a civil way, and I'll fix it if I agree with you. M: Are you a man? A woman? How old are you? Where do you live? A: I really got that kind of mails a lot. I don't mind that you know. I was quite amused by such mails actually. Well, my name is Jeroen Broks. I'm not going to give my private adres in this FAQ or anywhere else on the internet, but you may know that I live in the Netherlands, I am a man, and I was born in 1975. So on the moment I started on this version of this FAQ I was 31 years old. M: Fsdasdadasf afsdfasd afdfsaf A: Whatever you say I don't understand it. If you mail me, please only do so in either English or Dutch or if you really need in German. (Be perpared that if you speak German to me, you might get an answer in English, tough). I don't speak any other language. M: May I translate your FAQ into another language? A: If you ask my permission, mostly no problem M: Why is Neoseeker banned from hosting your FAQs? A: That's something between me and Neoseeker. I don't find it necesary to go into detail about that. I noted it in my FAQs to make sure they will never pop up there unnoticed. So don't mail me about it cause I won't answer. I got very good reasons for it. That's all you need to know. And so far this FAQ. I hope you have good use for it!
