Designing For | Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse's "The Tomb of Sammun-Mak" -- Designing For Irreverence @DesigningFor | Uploaded September 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Designing For is a series which looks at a level in gaming, and analyzes a theme central to that level's design. In this episode, we look at The Tomb of Sammun-Mak from Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse, which uses its uncaring, irreverent tone to get away with a structure of temporal shenanigans most games would be too serious to put up with.
