After working their way through a string of mysteries that eventually made a sadistic rabbity thing President of the United States, Sam & Max enter their fifth episode and a whole new dimension, with Reality 2.0. Now that the duo has wrestled with both television and politics, they must tackle something a bit more familiar: The Internet and video games.
The Internet, and all electronic systems, has stopped working. So, Sam & Max must figure out how to fix it. It doesn't take long before they find themselves in the middle of a massively multiplayer video game called Reality 2.0, which also happens to be a subversive program meant to enslave the world through hypnosis.
Without spoiling the plot, the Freelance Police need to step in and out of virtual reality, solving problems, in an effort to take down the Internet. Puzzles have fairly obvious solutions, solvable through trial and error. Most players (especially those who have been keeping up with the series) will breeze through the whole game in less than an hour. However, Reality 2.0 packs so many great geek and gamer jokes that players will want to beat it more than once.
With tons of one liners and gamer gags to spare, players need to tune in to this episode. The next one will be the season finale, but the developers will have their work cut out for them trying to top Reality 2.0.
