Gameplay

Poker Night at the Inventory is a Texas Hold 'Em poker simulation, where players compete versus famous characters from video games, movies, or comic books. Rules of the game are no different than in its real-life equivalent. As the game begins, each participant begins with 10 000$ buy-ins. Players can stay in the game until they are completely broke – the main goal of the game is to be the last players standing. As we play the game, some of our opponents will not be able to bet any more money and at that moment they will use some of their personal items as buy-in for the game.
