About

Point-and-click adventure where dog detective Sam and his lagomorph partner Max solve cases using psychic toys. Max gains abilities like teleportation, precognition, shape-shifting, and mind reading through mysterious artifacts called the Toys of Power. The five-episode arc starts when alien gorilla General Skun-ka'pe attacks the city hunting these same toys, forcing the duo to banish him to an interdimensional prison. From there, the plot spirals through mole-person cults, dusty film reels revealing their great-grandparents' exploits, ancient pharaoh tombs, and schemes involving an Elder God summoning. Each episode introduces new puzzles built around Max's expanding powers while unraveling the Devil's Toybox mystery. Expect absurdist humor, inventory challenges, and dialogue trees that don't take themselves seriously. The series commits fully to its weird premise—talking dogs, cosmic horror, and vaudeville-style banter coexist without apology.
