About
The Big Con, released in 2021, is an indie adventure game that allows players to relive the excitement of classic 90s con movies. You step into the shoes of a teenager hustling across the country to save your family video store. With its engaging storyline and vibrant art style, The Big Con offers a unique blend of persuasion and theft as players navigate various grifts and challenges.
In terms of PC performance, The Big Con is quite accessible, running smoothly even on entry-level hardware. To achieve satisfactory FPS, you’ll want at least an entry-level GPU, with a minimum score of around 2171, and a CPU score not less than 3195. With only 4 GB of RAM required, players can expect decent performance on lower graphics settings, making it easy for a range of GPUs to handle this game's demands without significant hiccups.
Should you play The Big Con? With a rating of 60/100, it's a decent pick for fans of the adventure genre who appreciate indie games. If you're in the mood for a quirky, nostalgic experience that doesn't overly tax your system, this title could be worth your time.
Performance profile
Released in August 2021, The Big Con targets RTX 20/30-series and RX 6000-era hardware. A current mid-range GPU (RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT) is the sweet spot for 1440p Ultra; 4K needs a high-end card.
The Big Con is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.
Extremely light — The Big Con runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.
Storyline
Hustle through the 90s in The Big Con, an adventure game where you’re an awkward teen hustling to save her family video store from gangsters. Play as Ali, a high school junior gone AWOL from band camp to seek revenge on the loan sharks that threaten her mom’s video store. (Fighting with your mom is YOUR job. No one else gets to do that.) Maybe you’ll profit from the latest collectible plushie craze, and make an interesting friend or two along the way.
