A snapshot of the Portland Retro Gaming Expo show floor - PIGSquad's booth has purple-clothed tables backed by purple PIGSquad walls. Numerous monitors, TVs, laptops, and table dressings are arranged on the tables, sharing multiple different games with expo goers playing on controllers and keyboards. Developers of the games sit behind the booths to chat with attendees and other devs.

Backed by purple PIGSquad walls, volunteers pose for the camera, one holding a big pink light-up CubePig. Some volunteers are masked, some are not. Everyone is wearing 2023's blue PRGE lanyard.

It's showcase season, and our two highlight events are coming up! We just opened submissions for our booth at @retrogamingexpo.bsky.social - if you have something to share, apply before 9/19 to play your game with tons of rad devs and game fans in October!

They were actually way better than I was expecting!!

Wafers in a can with Kirby faces on them

Kirby wafers in a can with a can of red bean paste next to it and a little paper that illustrates Kirby with an umbrella

3 wafers with red bean paste next to 3 wafers with Kirby faces

3 Kirby wafers that are completely together next to a cup of tea (the cup is from the Kirby cafe)

This was so much fun!

It’s a game where you have to fill out information about people (name, job and how they died) and the game lets you know when you get 3 correct. So you can’t just brute force it but it does lead to lots of cool deductions.

Golden Idol does something similar and so does The Roottrees Are Dead

HOLD IT
👏👏👏

There have been a lot of fun detective games lately and I feel like it's because a lot of them utilized the 'get three right' mechanic of Obra Dinn :)

UH wow I’m so sorry ;-;
