Plumbers Don't Wear Ties

released on Dec 31, 1993

He's a plumber, she's a daddy's girl. Only you can get them together, or tear them apart! Plumbers have everything: Greed, sex, spirituality, white-knuckle chases, shameful propositions, a nun, humor, true love, jaded love, jealousy, taut action, comedy, a bad guy, a good guy, a hero, spine-tingling suspense, a hot babe, brazen bravado, a damsel in distress, and a Hollywood ending! Plays like a game... feels like a movie!

if i had a small budget, a few actors and a poverty level coder, i'd make this game too

side note: someone i was talking to called this potentially one of the earliest western visual novels and i almost threw up in my mouth

Yeah, I was a sucker and I bought the Limited Run re-release. I watched the AVGN video years ago, it became one of my favorites, and this appeared to be "The Room" of video games. So I had to have a way to actually play it instead of just watching others play it (especially after the best way of playing it before, through YouTube, was rendered useless after YouTube removed the annotation feature).

And I can honestly say I don't regret spending money and physically adding this game to my collection at all. To all of the people saying "It's not even so bad it's funny. It's just bad", I highly disagree. There's even a lot of really funny shit that the AVGN didn't mention.

Though, unlike The Room, Plumbers Don't Wear Ties is often trying to be funny. The humor comes from its failure in this respect lol

You know what? I gotta be real here: This is possibly one of the worst games ever fucking made. I will hold up that candle to a light with absolute confidence. I don’t know how or why or who decided to green-light a game like this, but it’s just astounding.

however, as far as video game preservation goes, this is a absolute holy Grail to behold, filled with a lot of really good behind-the-scenes, makings, archival, photos, and interviews that will give any gamer a run for their money. What limited run has done is something to treasure, and I hope that they do more of this in the future.

Yeah, I don't know why I wasted that much time from my life on playing this, this thing. It's ot a game. Same as the 3DO version.

Yeah, I don't know why I wasted that much time from my life on playing this, this thing. It's ot a game. The PC version is the same. I can't believe they are remaking this for PS4&5, switch and Xbox. Just crazy.
