Pictured above is the exterior of the real-life Monk's, Tom's Restaurant, in New York City. In the planning stages, Keast said he's looking at two locations, both in the Dufferin Street and Dundas Street West area.Ī full-scale replica of Monk's Cafe, the diner featured in Seinfeld, is coming to Toronto this summer. "You'll feel like you're in Monk's," he said. Keast said he will not be recreating the restaurant to the finest detail, but instead will aim to recreate the experience.
Locally, Keast said he was inspired by the recreation of Ferris Beuller's bedroom for the art show Come Up To My Room. "I thought Seinfeld has a great physical locale you can recreate," he said, referring to Monk's Diner. He read about the bar having themed drinks with references to the show. He was inspired by a George Costanza-themed bar in Australia. Mackenzie Keast said he is recreating Monk's Diner, a fictional restaurant where many of the scenes in the show took place. However, a Toronto man planning to open a Seinfeld-themed pop-up bar and restaurant this summer, wants to change that.

In a FAQ summary, the devs say they need "actual, real internet people to show that there is a demand for it" and be grateful if you could "share this far and wide if you would like this to happen". Also like the show, the story would take place over three separate acts." "This is ultimately scaleable and multiple half-hour episodes can be made or added later as DLC. "Like the show's running length, we intend for the game to take roughly half an hour," the devs added. All this melds perfectly with the point-and-click formula!" "In Seinfeld, conflict also arises regularly from miscommunication or involves novel items (think episodes like The Pez, The Junior Mint, The Statue, The Calzone, The Fusilli Jerry, The Couch, The Big Salad etc). "Point-and-click adventure games often involve some sort of task or mission that requires a mix of conversational skills, puzzle solving, item collection and use," the official website explains. It's expected that you will be allowed to play multiple characters besides Kramer, who appears throughout the story but will not be playable "as he works better narratively as a "wild card", someone who can influence the story but not be controlled". In each act you will assume the role of Jerry, George or Elaine "as their stories interweave and overlap with one another, just like the show". Whilst the pair have teased "snippets of the concept" to gaming fans before, this time it's a "full pitch rather than a few screenshots" (thanks, VG24/7). In a video called Seinfeld Game - The Unofficial Pitch, developers Jacob Janerka and Ivan Dixon "would like to pitch to you a game about nothing, set in the Seinfeld-verse". A couple of indie developers want your help to bring a new point-and-click adventure based in the Seinfield universe to fruition.
