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.What Type Of A Game Is Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge?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!
Launches In SeptemberYou’ll be flabbergasted to learn that the entire concept of the game was spawned from a Reddit post, ostensibly. Perhaps the devs will divulge which post it was or the precise scenario one day. But until then, you can peruse the official website of Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge and glean more particulars about the game.
With its unadorned yet whimsical hand-drawn, doodle-esque visuals and infectious soundtrack, the game appears rather alluring. The trailer somewhat evoked the Dork Diaries aesthetic. Let’s ascertain whether the gameplay lives up to its artistic style and diverting teaser.
