Sam & Max: Season 3 Hints
How do I defeat Skunkape?
1 of 12: This is not going to be fun. What options do you have?
2 of 12: You can attack or taunt Skunkape, and you can ask for Max's help. Keep calm, though; nothing you do will create a permanent problem and you can't really die, so try them all and see what they do.
3 of 12: Attacking Skunkape at this point doesn't do much because he sees your punch coming and steps out of your reach.
4 of 12: Taunting Skunkape about his age makes him take a swipe at you and hit the planetarium machine, which shows the Fudgie Freeze constellation, distracting Sammun Mak for a short time.
5 of 12: Taunting Skunkape about the molemen makes the molemen reach their hands out of a grid in the floor, triggering a zap from Sammun Mak to knock them back down.
6 of 12: Taunting Skunkape about Papierwaite does pretty much nothing.
7 of 12: Max has access to his toys, but the only one that's useful is Future Vision. Use it on Sam to find out if he'll win.
8 of 12: Well, what do you know -- he will, and now we know the taunt that will really get under Skunkape's skin. Who would have thought he'd be so sensitive about being dumped? Use the new taunt to see its effect.
9 of 12: Taunting Skunkape about being dumped makes Papierwaite throw a fireball at him, which blinds him for a short time. Interesting, but not enough to be really helpful by itself.
10 of 12: So what have we got? We can make Skunkape temporarily blind, make the moles reach out of the floor, and distract Sammun Mak. None of them alone is enough to do much -- but combined in the right order, we've got what we need.
11 of 12: For example, when Skunkape is blind, we might be able to get in a punch, at least enough to push him back onto the moles' grid. They could then reach out and grab his feet, if Sammun Mak didn't notice what they were doing. And then he'd be at Sam's mercy.
12 of 12: Have you got the idea? After you find out about Skunkape's sensitivity, you need to distract Sammun Mak, agitate the moles, blind Skunkape, and push him back onto the moles' grid. Then Sam can finish him off.
