The Pajama Sam series is a collection of point and click children's adventure and puzzle games originally created by Humongous Entertainment. After the release of the first two adventure games, the series were proving a success when the products sold one million copies and won 40 awards of excellence.[1]

Games

Adventure games

All games consist of three parts: an introductory phase in which Sam begins in one room of his house, looking for his cape (or equipment that makes him courageous enough to face Darkness in the first game) and entering an imaginary world, the actual journey he undertakes in that world, and a concluding cinematic that ends the story. The world changes every time a new game is started (even though the main and side objectives stay the same). The games consist of Pajama Sam finding objects in the world and using them somewhere else. A cutscene is usually played if the right item is used. Each game has a save feature. In addition to a main storyline, each individual game has a separate objective to collect objects scattered around Sam's world.

In the first game, the player had no control over what scenarios would be encountered in one playthrough. In the sequel, the player can choose from several combinations of scenarios to play with, and in the last two games, he/she is given complete control on what kind of scenarios are encountered for each step towards resolving the main conflict.

  • No Need to Hide When It's Dark Outside (1996)
    • Pajama Sam: Don't Fear The Dark (2008 Wii port)
    • Pajama Sam: No Need to Hide (2012 mobile port)
  • Thunder and Lightning Aren't so Frightening (1998)
    • Pajama Sam: Thunder and Lightning (2014 mobile port)
  • You Are What You Eat from Your Head to Your Feet (2000)
    • Pajama Sam 3 (2015 mobile port)
  • Life Is Rough When You Lose Your Stuff! (2003)

The third title was ported to the original PlayStation. More than a decade since the series' inception, the first game in the series was also ported to the Wii, which suffered from limited availability due to a legal conflict concerning its development. In the 2010s, the first three games of the series were ported to iOS and Android as paid games.

Characters

Main characters

  • Pajama Sam - A young boy, voiced by Pamela Adlon in three games and later Elisha Ferguson in Life Is Rough When You Lose Your Stuff, who is a little naive but has an active imagination and ambition. He has light turquoise hair and skin and wears a pair of blue footed pajamas and a red cape. He befriends many inanimate objects throughout his adventures, who in turn assist him in the games. Sam has a tendency to be inattentive, impatient, and to rush into situations without having the full story. Yet he is also depicted as being friendly and going out of his way to be nice to characters that he encounters - even enemies or former enemies. He also has a big brother named Mark.
  • Pajama Man - Sam's favourite comic book superhero, whom he emulates to conquer his fears and dislikes and altruistically help others.

Pajama Sam 1

  • Carrot Freedom Fighter: A carrot in the garden across from Darkness's house. He is the leader of the Salad Liberation Front, a group of carrots who are tired of being considered as a part of a salad—they want to be the main course. He reappears in the second and third games. In some versions of the game, he is found wearing Sam's mask. He is a strong leader who has dedicated his time to helping his fellow carrots.
  • Darkness: Sam's nemesis throughout the game. Sam is afraid of him and attempts to capture Darkness. However, when Sam finally meets Darkness, he discovers that Darkness is not so bad after all. He is lonely and only wants to play games with friends, but he has none. Sam befriends him at the end of the game and the two play "Cheese and Crackers" together.
  • King: A cart in the mines near Darkness's house. Sam finds him rusted to his tracks, but helps free him. King feels young and alive after getting rid of his rust, and so carries Sam around the labyrinth of mines.
  • Otto: A friendly boat who is afraid of drowning. Otto is a bit of a coward, and not a thrill chaser. Sam helps him to get over this fear, and in return, Otto gives him rides around the river.
  • Wink & Blink: The Announcers for the Land of Darkness's game show, The "Brain Tickler". They are two doors seen arguing with each other when they think Sam is not present.
