About
The Big Con is an indie comedy adventure developed by Mighty Yell and published by Skybound Games, released on August 31, 2021. This single-player title lets you play as Ali, a sarcastic high schooler who leaves band camp to start a cross-country road trip. The main story takes about four hours to complete, while the full experience with extras extends to six hours. You hustle and grift your way across America in the 1990s on a crime-filled adventure where you save your family video store from loan sharks. Swindle strangers, pickpocket people, and con commoners throughout a wacky version of the decade while lying to your mom about everything. Choose who deserves to be conned and who might need a helping hand as you navigate the situation. Wear disguises, sneak around, eavesdrop on conversations, and learn how to approach each target in this road trip adventure. The completionist playtime reaches ten hours if you explore every option available. Pearls are worth a lot in this world where the world is your oyster.

A criminal scheme becomes a big hearted journey into the recent(ish) past.

The Big Con is a unique take on video game nostalgia that takes players to the '90s, but not the video game '90s.
