Pigbert

Pigbert is a turn-based game about a worker summoned to the palace to receive the Award of Excellent Labour, the Supreme Leader’s highest honour. The ceremony calls for the Supreme Leader and Labourer to share a cup of water, presenting them as aligned in the work needed to survive. But that alignment comes at the cost of personal freedoms, while demands keep growing and workers are sent to distant outposts to serve the whole, rarely to return.

The road to the palace

You travel a long road to the palace, defending yourself against iron-fisted Overseers and desperate workers struggling under the weight of their posts. In a dying world, you can share in the harvest if you remain productive. When you finally face the Supreme Leader, you decide whether to accept his honour and return to work or end your service.

Combat and progression

Combat is turn-based. You gain experience and improve your stats, learn attacks used by your opponents, and collect better weapons and armour along the way.

Your future

Your decision under the Supreme Leader leads to multiple endings.
