What if revenge tasted like your favourite fruit? It would feel pretty great, right? Something similar was on the mind of Patrones & Escondites. They’re cooking up a new game called Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge.
Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge is dropping on September 26th on Android, iOS and PC. The Steam page is up, but they haven’t pre-loaded the game on the Play Store yet. The game has already snagged a few awards as the best ludonarrative game.
It’s an interactive prank simulator. You’re a teenager who’s been dealing with one of the classic school bullies, the ‘Mean Girls’. But this time, you’re flipping the script and fighting back with a bit of absurdity, and a bunch of pineapples!
The game lets you get back at your tormentor by strategically placing pineapples in the most unexpected spots. Lockers, bags and places where the bullies will never expect or suspect to find pineapples. It’s both hilarious and kind of genius.
And while you’re busy pulling off these elaborate pranks, Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge also makes you think. It challenges you to reflect on where the line is between getting justice and becoming the very thing you’re fighting against. On a lighter note, check out the fun trailer that the devs dropped!
You’ll be surprised to know that the whole idea of the game was born from a Reddit post, apparently. Maybe the devs will share someday which post it was or the exact scenario. But till then, you can check out the official website of Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge and get more deets on the game.
With its simple but quirky hand-drawn, doodle-like visuals and catchy soundtrack, the game looks quite enticing. The trailer kind of gave me a Dork Diaries vibe. Let’s see if the gameplay matches up to its art style and fun teaser.
