The World
It’s Monopoly’s unhinged cousin who burned out in the gig economy, fell down a crypto rabbit hole, and now stays up way too late scrolling headlines.
Welcome to the world of PIDG where money is a meme, AI runs the markets, and the only way to win is to keep playing.
Back the Kickstarter
Why?
First: because it’s a genuinely fun game.
PIDG has been playtested, balanced, and refined through countless iterations (and the occasional kitchen-table argument with my veteran game designer husband).
There’s just enough luck to keep casual players from getting overwhelmed, and just enough strategy to keep tacticians hooked. You could technically gamble your way through and win, but it’s risky. That’s part of the fun.
Second: because it’s funny.
You’ll chuckle with recognition at the absurdity.
Third: because it’s a conversation starter.
PIDG turns the chaos of modern economics into something you can actually play with. It’s the system on a board.
And finally: because it’s made to be played together.
PIDG is built for mixed groups. It’s easy enough to catch onto in minutes, but it hides surprising strategic depth for those who love to scheme.
Help us build momentum and get the game made and on your table.
The Story of PIDG
The world of PIDG started the same way a lot of modern hustle do — with a gig.
From $5 Fiverr videos to the chaos of meme coins and day-trading Discords, I chased the promise of freedom until I realized
I was already playing the game.
That’s why I created PIDG. To play with the absurdity we’re all living through.
Because if money is a meme and the system is a game, maybe the first step is learning to see it that way.
