A different kind of poker night.
"There's no quicker way to turn the hotties off than by being a terrible poker player man."Strong Bad

Poker Night at the Inventory is an upcoming game by Telltale Games that features Strong Bad, Max (from Sam & Max: Freelance Police), Tycho Brahe (from Penny Arcade), and Heavy Weapons Guy (from Team Fortress 2). Telltale promises that it will feature "a new style of poker", presumably in a similar manner to that in the company's other card game, Telltale Texas Hold 'Em. Matt Chapman, besides providing the voice of Strong Bad, was heavily involved in the writing of his dialogue, similar to how he worked with Telltale on Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People.

Characters each start with $10,000. One confirmed feature is that characters eventually bet their possessions in the game, such as the Heavy's minigun, Sasha. Early screenshots show it taking place in a speakeasy, with the premise that the characters are spending their off hours playing poker. Between playing hands, the characters will talk to each other. For example, Strong Bad realizes he's a licensed character that was exploited by Telltale Games, as based on Behind The Bad.

The in-game models are the same as used in their respective games, so Strong Bad stands out against the more realistically shaded characters (along with Tycho, who also gets a cel-shaded cartoon look). It is set to be released in fall 2010.

  • Strong Bad will talk about his "ample hind-bosom".
  • The game is said to have a very deep dialogue system, and each character has their own respective thoughts on the others. It is said that Strong Bad and Tycho hate each other, but Tycho and Max get along really well, and Heavy is wary of Tycho, loves Max, and thinks Strong Bad is a tiny Heavy.
