Veggie Vigilantes: Queering Crime Tropes in Cosy Comedy Games
This paper offers a textual analysis of two games by the LGBTQI± Canadian studio Snoozy Kazoo, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion (2021) and Turnip Boy Robs a Bank (2024), arguing that their cosy, comedic reimagining of mafia narratives subverts established crime tropes.
- The paper is a textual analysis of two Snoozy Kazoo games, Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion (2021) and Turnip Boy Robs a Bank (2024), arguing that their cosy comedic take on mafia narratives subverts established crime tropes.

- The authors frame this humour and cuteness as a form of resistance that makes the danger of the mafia and themes of apocalypse and war more manageable and accessible.
