Use ScummVM (http://scummvm.org/), it enables you to play a wide range of adventure games on platforms they were never originally available. |

ScummVM should be able to help you out on any platform, it looks like Sam & Max Hit the Road is compatible Head over to http://www.scummvm.org/ and once installed search for the article "User Manual/Installing a game for use with ScummVM" on the wiki to help get you started. |

My suggestion would be to install DOSBox, and run it through the emulator. I use DOSBox for several old LucasArts games, and it works a treat. The compatibility checker shows it should work well: http://www.dosbox.com/comp_list.php?showID=52&letter=S Here is a good guide for getting DOSBox setup: http://vogons.zetafleet.com/viewtopic.php?t=2502 |

As other's have stated ScummVM will do the trick for Sam & Max and any other SCUMM based game. For more general advice on getting old games working check out Vogons (Very old games on new systems) |
