Comedy Crime Adventure The Big Con is Out Now
What would you do to save your family? That’s the question The Big Con asks you. No, you won’t have to kill anyone, but in this new comical adventure from Mighty Yell Games, you will have to steal. The Big Con is heavily inspired by ’90s culture and it wears its influences on its sleeve like a bright pink, blue, and yellow patch.
In The Big Con, you play as Ali, a teenager who is trying to save her mom’s video store from loan sharks by conning her way across the country. How you make money is up to you. Sneak. Pickpocket. Wear Disguises. Grift. The choice is yours, just don’t get caught in the act. The Big Con has open-ended situations and dialogue that encourage exploration. Smooth talk your way into money or out of trouble.
From Telltale’s The Walking Dead to Ori and the Will of the Wisps, Skybound has a long history in comics, movies, games, and TV. The Big Con is their newest publishing endeavor from Mighty Yell Studios, which consists of individuals who have worked on Jazzpunk, Guacamelee! 2, and Runbow. The game also has a AAA voice cast including Erika Ishii, Dave Fennoy, and Melissa Hutchison.
The Big Con is out now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. Be sure to check out the colorful launch trailer here and if you want to really get yourself in the mood for the game, listen to The Big Con‘s original theme song performed by Rockapella.
