Ultra‑Rare PS4 Game Worth $1,000+ Delivered to Recipients

Considered one of the most unusual and expensive games in PlayStation 4’s catalog, an unexpected mass delivery of Poop Slinger, a peculiar independent game involving flinging excrement at pedestrians, has left many recipients puzzled. The sudden appearance of anonymous packages filled with sealed copies of the game has sparked a mystery.

Originally launched in 2019, this game reached prices of up to $1400 on resale markets after its publisher, Limited Rare Games, claimed to have gone bankrupt following the production and sale of only 100 units. Contrary to earlier declarations, the current situation suggests that at least seven specialized stores and nearly 40 individuals have received unsolicited boxes containing a dozen copies of this game each, an event first documented by Kotaku.

Initial investigations to identify the sender of these packages have been unsuccessful as the return address on the labels belongs to a completely unrelated commercial establishment now dealing with constant and uncomfortable phone calls. The only substantial progress in this case comes from a postal employee who confirmed having assisted a single person who deposited 39 of these packages simultaneously, leaving uncertainty about the true motives behind this mass distribution.

In the midst of widespread confusion, affected retailers such as Cake Hoarder and Double Jump Games have opted to temporarily withdraw the titles they received from sale, even considering offering them free of charge once the mysterious circumstances are clarified.

Meanwhile, the confirmed influx of at least 234 additional copies into circulation has caused the game—once the most expensive title on the PS4 platform, excluding special editions—to plummet below the $700 mark on pricing sites such as Price Charting.

The surge in available units has reignited debate over the publisher’s initial false claims of scarcity. Sony’s own manufacturing standards dictate a minimum of one thousand copies must be sold before a physical production run can be authorized, proving the alleged shortage was fabricated.

Reports that the Poop Slinger copies sent out are fully functional, coupled with a claim from a company that received an offer to purchase 2,400 units, point to a large‑scale fraud. The prevailing theory suggests a covert operation by Limited Rare Games—distinct from the well‑known Limited Run—aimed at inflating collector speculation to absurd levels.
