I played this to try winning the TF2 items for a friend only to learn they were not able to be traded. Oops!
Tycho is unfunny just beyond the threshold of irony so he was just annoying, but the other three were charming to varying degrees. Despite not having had much experience with Sam & Max I found Max to be particularly enjoyable. Otherwise it's just Poker, and playing it against these various personalities alongside a friend is a fun time. It's just not too interesting in terms of presentation despite being video game and web media themed.

Está graciosa la idea de jugar póker con un par de personajes de varios videojuegos y webcomics pero eso es todo lo que tiene, póker y un puñado de interacciones graciosas entre estos cuatro personajes. A la media hora te has aburrido del póker y has oído todas las frases, y la diversión ha terminado.
I remember when they teased this with just the silhouettes of the characters and how hyped 13 year old me was seeing Strong Bad and Heavy in the same game. Being indifferent towards Max since I never really played that series. And having no idea who the other one was. And still having no idea who Tycho was when I first played it.
I also didn't realize "Poker Night" was a literal title before they showed gameplay.
My mom had to teach me how to play poker when it came out.

Godlike idea for a crossover, instead of putting Heavy and Sam to fight, let's see what they think of several other subjects on their lives while you curse at their cheap as shit A.I
If only they had better picks for players, I don't know who's dick got sucked so Tycho could be the game, but let's not pretend goofy ass Penis Arcade was anywhere near as iconic as the other 3 back then, let alone now.

its neat, taught me how to play poker (kinda) i got all the tf2 skins at least
my girlfriend held me at knifepoint to learn how to play but once you understand it, its actually kinda fun. you can troll the heavy and steal his minigun from him (and then give it back to him when you play tf2)
some of the jokes are kinda unfunny. the bitch from penny arcade has some cringy jokes about wanting to fuck animals, i generally dislike his presence. im glad strong bad holds him with nothing short of utter contempt

i bought this for the TF2 bonuses despite not knowing how to play poker, like a lot of other people. Only character I didn't know in here was tycho, but honestly everyone in the game has interesting dynamics with one another to make a really memorable lil game of poker, and they even play the game in character, which is a lot more fun than standard AI difficulty. just overall fun lil times. does penny arcade even still exist
It's a decent poker simulation game with a very unique cast of characters. I admire the attempt to meld internet culture with video game IPs a lot, and there's a lot of fun interactions with the cast here, unless they involve Tycho. Tycho is... just an unlikeable douche. No one cares about or likes him. The character animations are very stiff and can be awkward to look at at times, but other than that, it's a charming game and a pretty great time capsule of the late 2000s. It's a shame this game can't be bought anymore.
