PBJ - The Musical: A Surreal Shakespearean Sandwich Story

PBJ - The Musical offers a unique, surreal twist on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, reimagined as a musical featuring a star-crossed strawberry and peanut butter. This quirky mobile game, launching March 26th on iPhone and iPad, allows players to either direct the narrative or enjoy an automated playthrough.

The story unfolds through ten musical acts, employing handmade stop-motion animation and amateur Shakespearean voice acting. Players actively participate by dragging and dropping story elements, ensuring a distinct experience with each play. Guide the peanut and strawberry lovers through this bizarre, yet charming, interpretation of classic theatre.

A Quirky Delight (or Not?)

The game's quirkiness is central to its appeal. Whether you'll enjoy PBJ - The Musical hinges on your tolerance for the unconventional. The evident dedication to the project's creation is intriguing, and its reception upon release will be fascinating to observe.

Interestingly, PBJ - The Musical shares a niche with another recent mobile musical release: Adventures of a Cat in Space. While both feature musical elements, Adventures of a Cat in Space focuses on a feline astronaut, offering a different thematic approach.
