Somehow, a portal leads the two main characters (a rabbit and a suit wearing dog) to Easter Island, where many of the disappeared items are found. They discover Amelia Earhart, Charles Lindberg, the Fountain of Youth, a portion of Noah's Ark, and many more items near a small tiki bar on the island. Sam and Max meet the giant Moai heads, who warn that they must help to prevent a potential devastating volcano eruption. Oh, and there is also a giant Abraham Lincoln head that appears to be infatuated with the Moai heads .... go Abe go! I found a couple of preview videos - the first was done as a 'Girls Gone Wild' parody, but the second I found more interesting - that video can be seen on the following page http://www.joystiq.com/2008/01/04/gametap-previews-sam-and-max-moai-better-blues/ The game costs $9, and I think you can get a free demo version.
