Pico's School

Uncommon card · No. 167674

Pico's School is a 1999 point-and-click Flash game developed by Tom Fulp for his website Newgrounds. At the time of its release, it was "one of the most sophisticated" browser games, exhibiting "a complexity of design and polish in presentation that [was] virtually unseen in amateur Flash game development". It has been widely credited with kickstarting the Flash games scene and helping launch Newgrounds "as a public force". The game was inspired by the Columbine High School massacre, and was released only three months after the event. It centers around the titular Pico, a young boy who must fight a group of stereotypical goth kids who have killed his classmates.
