This goes for 'comedy' anything. The funniest adventure games were ones that relied on more than just humor to engage the player.

A lot weren't laugh out loud funny, but they were charming and made you smile at least. I haven't played Sam and Max but it seems like it might actually make me laugh at some point.

I don't want to engage with this muckfest, but I'm going to. Dude has shown, time and time again, that the success of Earthworm Jim either had nothing to do with him or that he managed to find a jewel in an outhouse.
My guess is he's been eating rocks.

I think Doug TenNapel is a moron but I still like Earthworm Jim. It's silly not to like Earthworm Jim. People focused on the cartoonist can just think instead about all the other people who worked on the game.

The rest is shit. I like monkey 1 for nostalgia reasons but it's not funny and monkey 2 is just really awkward.
