Sam & Max: Season 1 Hints

What am I supposed to do with all this stuff in the Oval Office?

  • 1 of 6: Most of it is just fun stuff to play with, but there are some usable items. Look especially for anything the president wouldn't let you play with when he was there.
  • 2 of 6: The calendar is a magical thing that lets you change what day it is. Take a look at the holidays and remember them in case you need to make it be a specific day.
  • 3 of 6: The ribbon on the desk lets you appoint someone as a secretary, which can be either a cabinet post or a clerical position. You'll be using it in conjunction with the calendar at some point.
  • 4 of 6: The budget on the desk lets you give $100 million to a national historical monument of your choice. Go ahead and assign it, if you like; you can always reassign it later.
  • 5 of 6: Finally, if you go down to the bottom of the screen, you'll see a TV camera and a bunch of cue cards. Using the camera lets you see that Max is indeed just as bad of a president as you might have guessed. The cue cards are now takable, so take them and look for a place to use them --
  • 6 of 6: -- like outside on the easel next to the other TV camera.
