Chulip

Chulip

Take Animal Crossing, now remove decorating your room but add a bizarre story...then add a button to attempt kissing everyone you meet. Yupp, that's Chulip.

Crush

Crush

Can't find a way to solve the puzzle in 3D, fine smash, or "Crush" it into 2D. That's the premise, have fun! Side Note: Personally this is a big one for any fans of the puzzle gameplay of Catherine.

Stretch Panic

Stretch Panic

I'm not even going to try explaining this acid trip...just watch a video.

Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed

Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed

You strip vampires so they burn up in the sun...done.

Incredible Crisis

Incredible Crisis

Warioware if Wario was replaced by a Japanese family.

Mr. Mosquito

Mr. Mosquito

Not a fan of the controls but this game is as bizarre as they come. Fly around as a mosquito and get blood from the Japanese family whose home you've invaded. I guess I'm biased since I always wanted him to get smashed.

Seaman

Seaman

Honestly, not that fun in my opinion but the novelty is there. I mean hell, you're talking to a fish.

Yanya Caballista: City Skater

Yanya Caballista: City Skater

They put a tech deck onto a controller...it didn't work, but I got a kick out of it.

Catherine

Catherine

Really bizarre story and unusual puzzle gameplay make this one of my favorite games of all time. Not a widely held view, but it's mine.

Cubivore: Survival of the Fittest

Cubivore: Survival of the Fittest

Before the Minecraft phenomenon there was Cubivore, a blocky Jurassic quirk of a game.
