Sometimes, a game's title alone can spark curiosity and demand an explanation. Take PBJ - The Musical, for instance. Now available on iOS, this unique game comes from developer Philipp Stollenmayer and plunges you into a musically-themed adventure that reimagines Romeo & Juliet with a twist of peanut butter and strawberry.
Yes, you read that right. PBJ - The Musical isn't your typical game. It blends puzzling obstacle course gameplay with a fully orchestrated soundtrack, all set against hand-animated paper craft-style graphics. As you navigate through the game, you can uncover new remixes of the soundtrack, adding depth to your musical journey.
The game's core concept is undeniably eye-catching, banking on the intrigue of its unusual premise to draw players in. After watching some gameplay, it's clear that PBJ - The Musical might be a divisive release—much like Marmite, you'll either love it or find it less appealing. It seems best suited for younger audiences, offering an on-rails puzzler experience where you can sit back, enjoy the ride, and soak in the music without needing to overthink the gameplay.
