The Big Con Is An Easy Mark Worth Scoping Out

The Big Con transports players back to the ‘90s when video rental stores dotted the land, tacky bright colors were in like Flynn, and you could unironically describe something as “radical” and be considered, well, pretty rad.

One of indie gaming’s most celebrated classics finally gets a sequel and it’s just as challenging, and rewarding, as the original.
