| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) | comment |
So, a Russian mercenary, a loudmouthed luchador, a gaming webcomic writer, and a hyperactive, sociopathic lagomorph walk into a bar hosted by a retired pirate...The Inventory: a former speakeasy founded against the possibility of an early draft of the 18th Amendment that was even more stringent than the one we know, now re-purposed as a highly exclusive club. Gaming's most iconic characters settle in here during their "downtime," when their games are powered down. It's poker night, and four of gaming's greatest characters walk in to play, about to bet everything they own for the sake of winning. Oh, and you're there, for some reason.Poker Night at the Inventory is a crossover game from Telltale Games featuring Strong Bad, Max, Tycho and the Heavy engaging the "Player," a mysterious new challenger, in a game of Texas Hold'Em poker.The trailer can be viewed here. It has its own wiki here.It was followed by Poker Night 2, released in April 2013. | |

Another dialogue starts with Strong Bad making fun of the spikes in Tycho's hair, and somehow ends with the all-too-relevant Perverse Sexual Lust moment. | |

The Cameo | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: By series: From Sam & Max: Freelance Police: Flint Paper, Bluster Blaster, Sam, Girl Stinky, Momma Bosco and a can of banang. Some scenes from the comics can be seen on the wall behind Tycho. Pom Pom appears in the opening cutscene, playing poker. You see him storming out of the Inventory, apparently frustrated at being eliminated. You take over his chair when playing Texas Hold'em. Monty Muzzle is perusing books on the second level. And of course, Winslow is the host. Looks like Winslow, sounds like Winslow, but different clothing and only identified as "The Host." As there is no copyright notice for LucasArts in the game, you can interpret him as either a Captain Ersatz or a Lawyer-Friendly Cameo. In the intro of Poker Night 2 though, Winslow identifies himself by name. Trixie Trotter from Back to the Future: The Game by Telltale is seen entering a secret room just as Winslow appears. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: Heavy has updated from Team Fortress 2's 50s-60s stylized setting, but only updated to about the mid-80s (he listens to Huey Lewis and the News and believes Purple Rain is recent), while Strong Bad and Tycho talk over computer setups and internet sites. Even then, Strong Bad thinks that Videlectrix is recent, while Tycho refers to them as the 'classics.' Of course, Strong Bad's idea of state-of-the-art technology is infamously backwards (Strong Bad thought his first computer was state-of-the-art because it had "two contrast knobs.") | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Sometimes, upon losing badly on a hand, the Heavy may say, "I do not understand this… burning I feel." One of the Heavy's domination lines in Team Fortress 2 is, "The burning you feel? It is shame." | |

Funny Background Event | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_26eb6287 | comment |
Funny Background Event: After being knocked out, the characters can be seen doing something in the background. Strong Bad goes to play an arcade game (Bluster Blaster, the sentient arcade machine from the Sam & Max games), the Heavy sits at a nearby table and watches the game, Tycho goes to the bar, and Max... aimlessly wonders around the Inventory, as he tends to do in the Sam & Max games. Sometimes you can catch him gnawing on the stair handrails; sometimes he'll return but only his ears will be poking above the table. If Max is knocked out after Strong Bad, he goes to join him at the Bluster Blaster machine. If you win the game, the dramatic pans around the room reveal that Bluster Blaster has the "Insert Coin(s)" display even when Strong Bad is playing it. | |

Hidden Depths: The Heavy is full of these. Turns out he can be pretty remorseful about his job when he's not shockingly sadistic, and he's got a pretty good handle on Russian literature. Also, he enjoys a good peach bellini. See Smarter Than You Look. | |

Even Evil Has Standards | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: The Heavy's story about the Engineer. Given how the Heavy is telling this to three extreme sociopaths, their disgust means a lot. Also used with Max and Tycho. Max has several different stories about Artie Flopshark getting repeatedly maimed/killed for doing things like teaching people how to play poker. Tycho points out that it's well...wrong to beat up someone for trying to raise money for charity or to keep his home from being foreclosed. But killing his best friend for a Pac-man watch? Totally a-ok! Heavy's childhood story about burying a sparrow who was killed by another boy elicts sorrowful reactions from everyone at the table. At the end of the trailer, The Heavy mentions that, upon being beaten three times, he'll be executed. The other threes' only response was to be absolutely horrified. | |

This Cannot Be!: If the Heavy loses with a good hand, such as a three of a kind, with a big pot, he will scream "WHAT?! I will not lose to lucky coward! I kill you!", turn over the table, and spins up Sasha. The other characters are naturally shocked. Cue Smash Cut to him sitting down again (with the table back in place) with a Death Glare and say, "Deal new hand now." Played with by Tycho if the Player is eliminated on a bad beat by another character, suggesting this reaction if Tycho was in the Player's place. | |

Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: While most of the characters are jovial enough toward each other, with occasional bouts of conflict, Strong Bad and Tycho show fairly naked animosity toward each other.

The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_6041e4f4 | comment |
The Computer Is a Cheating Bastard: Possible to invert this. Due to how Max picks up his cards when the cards are first dealt, and the dynamic camera angles during conversations, it is possible to accidentally sneak a peek at what he has. Max keeps referring to his psychic powers from The Devil's Playhouse, and during showdowns he can be seen peeking into the future vision toy, which begs the question whether his AI can/does cheat or he's just psyching you out. Based on Max's implied tentative grasp of the game, it's questionable how much looking into the future would even help him. | |

Freeze-Frame Bonus | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_62f9d08e | comment |
Freeze-Frame Bonus: Some characters make it a huge deal when they fold hands they thought were good enough, and the camera allows to see the cards in some angles. The Heavy is the most obvious, lifting his hole cards and slamming them face first into the table, giving plenty of time for the player to see. On a real table this is rude at the very least, if not grounds for being expelled from the table outright. | |

Manly Tears: When The Heavy loses Sasha in a bet. The character who wins it, aside from the player, will always state something hysterical about what they'll use it for. Well, Max doesn't state any plans for it. He simply states "It's... It's...BEAUTIFUL!" more emphatically than when Heavy first pulls out his precious gun. Strong Bad thinks it'll be a great way to keep The Cheat in line. | |

And Your Reward Is Clothes | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_6ac6a56a | comment |
And Your Reward Is Clothes: The items you win during the bonus rounds can be used in Team Fortress 2. While they're all shiny and unique, they're statistically identical reskins to keep the game balanced. The Iron Curtain is equivalent to the default minigun, the Lugermorph is a reskin of the default pistol used by the Scout and Engineer, and the Enthusiasts' Timepiece is a reskin of the Spy's default invisibility watch. Now, most, if not all game pre-order tie-in items become random drops in Team Fortress 2 a month or so later, so they've started to have unique stats and abilities. Pre-ordering a certain game only nets you early access to the weapons, plus the aesthetic title "Genuine". | |

Serious Business: One of Heavy's lines in the trailer implies there's something a bit grim waiting for him if he loses. Strong Bad will ask The Heavy if he wants to "take care" of the King of Town. The Heavy assumes he means kill, but Strong Bad just wants to shave half his mustache. Strong Bad admits he wouldn't mind if the King of Town was killed, however. | |

Probably best to keep him away from animals entirely. And it's a good thing he's sitting on the other side of the table from Max. He doesn't exactly take losing all that well, either: | |

Medium Awareness: The characters show varying levels, with Tycho and Strong Bad being aware of their status as game characters, while Heavy thinks his deaths and respawning are him having nightmares. Max's awareness seems to go in and out... in mid-sentence even. Tycho's an interesting case, as he knows that the other characters are from games. He owns Team Fortress 2, and mentions to the Heavy how long the game's been out on Steam. | |

Headdesk: In the vein of his source material, Strong Bad sometimes does this if a bad card turns up during a one-on-one showdown with the player. Especially hilarious because he doesn't say a thing during it, he just has this look while he slams his head into his cards and chips. This gets more hilarious if the game decides to start his headdesk animation and a conversation started by him at the same time. Strong Bad will continually hit his head against the desk while talking in his normal tone of voice as if nothing is wrong. | |

Character Tics: After the first patch of the game, the four characters will perform certain actions (either while betting or when the community cards are dealt) which can give away what kind of hand they have. Some (like Strong Bad slamming his head against the table or Tycho slapping himself) are obvious, while others (such as Heavy's flaring nostrils or Max's twitching hands) are a bit more subtle. | |

If Tycho's word and Strong Bad's reaction is anything to go by, Strong Bad is probably ten, something around that. Makes sense, since homestarrunner.com only started in 2000. Strong Bad is an odd case, really. In the Homestar Runner canon, he's in his 40's by now. However, if you do follow Tycho's logic, the original book that started it all came out 14 years ago, not 10. | |

For the Evulz: The Heavy questions Tycho about his "BLU sweater," thinking he's a new Team Fortress 2 class. Tycho goes along with it, clearly delighting in making him nervous by stating his hacking ability can ruin The Heavy's entire team. | |

Smarter Than You Look | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_b4fb830c | comment |
Smarter Than You Look: The Heavy has multiple lines asking the characters about their respective educations. Tycho plays it off with a lame D&D joke, Max admits he never went to college, and Tiny Heavy... well. Not only that, but he also chats with Tycho about his favorite book (Tsar Hunger by Leonid Andreyev), because get this - he has a Ph.D. in Russian Literature. That's Dr. Heavy Weapons Guy to you! Probably a reference to how the Russian version of "Meet the Heavy" made him sound much more sophisticated than the original, implying that he only sounds like a dumbbell because of his relatively poor English. | |

Take That! | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: There's a lot of potshots against all the characters' respective backgrounds by the others, both subtle and explicit. Many, many, many, against Gamestop, government and so forth. Since a lot of the dialogue was "polished" by the original creators, it's usually entirely in-character, and references their backgrounds. Strong Bad doesn't think much of Penny Arcade or PAX, a call-back to his scathing parody of the series. One conversation between Strong Bad and Max has them discuss how well, or poorly, Telltale Games do their characters justice. Max is satisfied, Strong Bad is not. As explained in Biting-the-Hand Humor, the Making Of... videos show how Strong Bad's expectations for his video game were... not met. When Heavy asks Strong Bad if he'd like to join RED, Strong Bad responds with "I guess I could join your team of ruthless killers and lame hat-wearers and watch you get grenaded by eight-year-olds." Strong Bad: "Your hair looks like a greasy hedgehog — unassociated with any video game license — that walked into a barber shop and said 'A little off the suck, please.'" When Strong Bad asks Heavy about his favorite video game, Tycho interrupts his answer with World of Warcraft, and the Heavy responds, "Ehh, it is not popular." This Take That! was possibly made because how Blizzard got angry with Valve due to them trademarking Defense of the Ancients, which was orignally a Warcraft III map. When Tycho asks Heavy about whether or not he receives any "good drops" from killing others, Heavy goes into a short, almost out of character speech on how killing others sometimes makes him feel bad, or gives him nightmares.note This one actually makes sense, considering Heavy's backstory — he laments about killing men because he worries he's taking them away from their wives and children. The same thing happened to his father, who was killed fighting against the Red Army in 1941. Heavy, his mother, and his sisters were forced to work in a gulag as a result. He then quickly switches into another, wide eyed speech about hats, proclaiming they are the best. | |

Confusion Fu: The game is sometimes easier on Hard, because the characters are, on a whole, more predictable. On Normal it's almost a crap shoot. Or.. er.. a randomly-chosen card game. In keeping with his personality, Max's play style is extremely erratic, with little underlying logic behind his moves. He tends to be really good whenever he remembers that he's playing poker, though. | |

Hypocritical Humor: Strong Bad, as can be expected. Notable examples include making fun of Penny Arcade's site traffic while pimping off his own, despite Homestarrunner.com having gone years without an update, as well as his constant lack—- uhhh, stream of ladies. All of the characters, particularly Max and Strong Bad, will mock you for being a wuss if you check, and then immediately proceed to check as well. Max occasionally complains when Tycho uses the word "ostentatious" yet uses the word himself occasionally when he wins. | |

Artificial Brilliance | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_df11acbe | comment |
Artificial Brilliance: This game has some splendid AI for a poker game. In fact, all four characters have unique playing patterns. Max has an almost random playing pattern, as if he has absolutely no idea what he's doing or how to play poker; he gives the impression of being more interested in the cross-table kibitzing than in the actual game. Nonetheless, he's smart enough to back his luck when he suspects he's got a good hand. Strong Bad's high confidence has him attempt to bluff his way through the game, stealing the pot as his high bets (or even all-ins) intimidate the players into folding to him. This makes him vulnerable to those who call his bluff, but his hubris makes it hard to tell if he actually is bluffing or if he's baiting you into the trap of a good hand. The Heavy is much more conservative with his money, folding when he doesn't have what he thinks is a good hand and betting when he does; his bets are cautious in attempt to lure his opponents into adding more to the pot. Tycho plays excessively cautiously early on to make sure he outlasts at least some of his opponents before playing highly aggressively, and often recklessly trying to bluff as more and more players are knocked out of the game. In addition, the game actually includes facial expressions as tells requiring you to watch the other players when the hands are dealt. Some of them subtle, others are very obvious (such as Strong Bad banging his head loudly against the table when he has a VERY bad hand.) | |

There's an option in the menu to turn bleeping of swears on and off. At least one Tycho swear is left bleeped even with the censors off. Strong Bad does say "fucked-up shit" at one point, but it's bleeped out even if you have the censor turned off. Word of God says that the line Matt Chapman actually said was "bleeped-up bleep," which is exactly what the subtitles say (Tycho's swearing is always ***'d out, whether censors are on or off). invoked | |

| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_e9db9908 | comment |
Younger Than They Look: If Tycho's word and Strong Bad's reaction is anything to go by, Strong Bad is probably ten, something around that. Makes sense, since homestarrunner.com only started in 2000. Strong Bad is an odd case, really. In the Homestar Runner canon, he's in his 40's by now. However, if you do follow Tycho's logic, the original book that started it all came out 14 years ago, not 10. Subverted by Max who mentions that he hopes the bartender won't ask him for identification. When Tycho questions if he's too young, Max simply replies that he's old enough, but finds the process of being carded embarrassing. Like his partner, Max is allegedly pushing 40 as Sam and Max: Chariots of the Dogs suggests that he was born in the 1970s. | |

Early-Bird Cameo: Trixie Trotter appears in the intro cutscene, roughly three months before her appearance in Back to the Future: The Game: Episode 2. | |

Adjustable Censorship | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_f010f6b4 | comment |
Adjustable Censorship: There's a toggle for bleeping out Tycho's swears, but a line where Strong Bad presumably says "fucked-up shit" is always bleeped regardless of the setting. Matt Chapman later stated that he literally said "bleeped-up bleep". | |

Too Much Information | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_f332d990 | comment |
Too Much Information: Strong Bad reacts this way when the Heavy says that between learning to box and learning to herd goats, he chose boxing. Max's reaction to Tycho's speech on giraffes and in the same vein, Strong Bad's reaction to Tycho's speech about hedgehogs. | |

Product Placement | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: Lampshaded and parodied when Strong Bad will mention "HOMESTAR RUNNER DOT COM" then urge Max to plug "DOUBLE U DOUBLE U DOUBLE U DOT TELL TALE GAMES DOT COM SLASH STORE." | |

FacePalm | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_f9375414 | comment |
Face Palm: both Max and Tycho have this among their Character Tics. Max's is, appropriately enough, rather more exaggerated. | |

Go-Karting with Bowser | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_fc4f5f19 | comment |
Go-Karting with Bowser: While the Heavy isn't really a villain, playing poker is a lot more casual than his day job. Really, all of the characters have committed murder, justified or not | |

Artistic License – Economics | |
| Poker Night at the Inventory (Video Game) / int_fd76df83 | comment |
Artistic License – Economics: One of Winslow's possible introductions is an inflation gag: he claims that a $75 bet from 1910 would be equivalent to $10000 in 2010. In real life, it would've only been worth $1732.70 at the time of the games release. | |

Brick Joke | |

Brick Joke: The Banang joke, which has a tendency to show up in recent Telltale games series, makes a return here. Max, obviously, doesn't take hearing the word again very well. | |
