Imagine revenge tasting like your favorite fruit – pretty satisfying, right? That's the quirky premise behind Patrones & Escondites' new game, Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge, launching September 26th on Android, iOS, and PC. While the Steam page is live, the Play Store listing isn't yet available for pre-loading. This already award-winning (best ludonarrative game!) title promises a unique experience.
Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge is an interactive prank simulator. You play a teenager battling the classic school bully archetype – the "Mean Girls" – but this time, you fight back with absurdity…and pineapples!
The gameplay involves strategically placing pineapples in unexpected locations – lockers, bags, anywhere your tormentors least expect them. It's both hilarious and cleverly conceived. Beyond the laughs, the game prompts reflection on the blurry line between justice and becoming the very thing you oppose. Check out the fun trailer for a sneak peek!
September Launch
Interestingly, the game's concept originated from a Reddit post. While the developers haven't revealed the specific post, you can find more details on the official Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge website.
The game's simple yet charming hand-drawn visuals and upbeat soundtrack are quite appealing, reminiscent of Dork Diaries. Whether the gameplay lives up to the art style and trailer remains to be seen. In the meantime, check out our other article on the new update for The Seven Deadly Sins: Idle, featuring new heroes!
