Sam & Max: Season 2 Hints

How do I win the rhyming contest?

  • 1 of 9: Talk to Jurgen to start the contest. You can play as many times as you like.
  • 2 of 9: Remember who you're trying to impress: a bunch of zombies.
  • 3 of 9: So you need to pick names and rhymes that have to do with death and decay.
  • 4 of 9: The exact words you need are:
  • 5 of 9: But actually, just getting the rhymes right isn't quite enough. In order to make Jurgen really lose, you're going to have to do something that keeps him from rhyming at all.
  • 6 of 9: Did you notice that Jurgen bites Max every time you win? It doesn't seem to hurt Max, but it'd be an easy way to slip Jurgen a Mickey Finn. He won't react to drugs --
  • 7 of 9: -- but how about a little holy water? You've got some in your office, as you saw in the intro. (Remember Max having visions from bathing in it?)
  • 8 of 9: Grab a bottle of water from the bar to the left of the dance floor and take it back to your office, then use the bottle on the ceremonial urn by the window. Use the bottle on Max to make him drink it, and see a little halo appear over his massive head.
  • 9 of 9: But the holiness doesn't last long. Go back to Stuttgart and have Max drink the holy water there, then put the bottle in the trash can outside the door (since Superball won't let you bring it in the club). Inside, go right to the rhyming contest, and Jurgen's goose is cooked.
