    No good poker, some good laughs

    Poker night at the inventory  is a great concept, and you can get it for cheap. And I wont lie, I love Telltale as much as anyone.
     
    But the AI will bet randomly no matter what cards they have. Its like playing a kindergarten. They will make huge raises, only to fold the same hand seconds later. There is no strategy, it becomes a very slow game of pure luck.
    But you didn't come here for the poker, right? Well, the dialogue, while occasionally funny, gets repetitive pretty fast.
    I also met a few game breaking bugs through my play through.

    Can you tell us what difficulty you're playing on? I'm not noticing random betting on Hard mode. Also in poker, if someone is raising or betting "randomly" that can be seen as intimidation for the pot.

      Mediocre Gameplay, Fantastic Narrative 0

      Poker Night at the Inventory is a poker game developed by Telltale, which drops you into a seat at one of the world’s most secretive gambling dens, and lets you face off against four famous characters from video games and the internet in a good old-fashioned game of no-holds-barred Texas Hold ‘Em. Considering that Telltale first got their start with a poker game back in 2004, it’s not surprising that six years later one of the most notable poker-based video games on the market has been developed...

      This game, for being so badass a concept, is totally worth the measly 5 bucks it cost. I mean, how the hell can you go wrong with Max, Tycho, Strong Bad and the Heavy, with the most simple yet robust version of virtual Texas Hold 'Em I've seen yet? I mean, hell, it may not be saying much but this game taught me more about the game than anything else. The irreverent, crude humor and just overall FUN totally make it worth the 5-spot. I heartlily recommend you check it out, if not for the game itse...
