Imagine revenge tasting like your favorite fruit – pretty satisfying, right? That's the quirky premise behind Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge, a new interactive prank game from Patrones & Escondites.
Launching September 26th on Android, iOS, and PC (Steam page is live!), this already award-winning (best ludonarrative game!) title offers a unique take on school bully scenarios.
What is Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge?
It's an interactive prank simulator where you, a teenager, fight back against the classic "Mean Girls" trope…with pineapples! The gameplay involves strategically placing pineapples in unexpected locations – lockers, bags, you name it – to hilariously and cleverly get revenge.
But it's not all laughs. The game also explores the moral ambiguity of revenge, prompting players to consider the line between justice and becoming the very thing they oppose.

A Reddit Origin Story?
Interestingly, the game's concept apparently originated from a Reddit post. While the developers haven't revealed the specific post, you can learn more on the official Pineapple: A Bittersweet Revenge website.
The game's charming hand-drawn art style and catchy soundtrack are reminiscent of Dork Diaries, promising a fun and engaging experience. We'll see if the gameplay lives up to the delightful visuals and trailer!
