whenever i see a youtube video that's like "TOP WEIRDEST ADVENTURE GAMES" or "INDIE GAMES YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE TRIED" i immediately get like, extremely ready to judge them

are you gonna show me actual indie games i haven't heard of or are you gonna go NUMBER 5: HADES, BY SUPERGIANT GAMES

@JuniperTheory

this was inspired by finding a video called "obscure adventure games" where i recognized 1 of the adventure games total

now THAT'S what i call QUALITY

@JuniperTheory

this was even MORE inspired by finding a guy who's thing is apparently "repackaging forgotten pc/dos games so that you can run them easy"

we were searching for ways to play some of the weirder pinball games, and found this guy just making em playable for free

and it fucking rules. i have mad respect for anyone doing this sort of archival work of shit nobody cares about. i then found his youtube with some actual, serious deep cuts like "the devo point and click adventure game"

(cw for some extreme grossness in the first game on this list, as you uh... kind of could expect from an old 90s adventure game)

anyways yeah this guy fucking rules and i'm so happy i found him, treasure trove of bad pc stuff

Oh, hey, we looked at the list, and we recognize... at least two? There's one or two others that we're kind of wondering "Okay, do I recognize this, or do I just think I might?" The video itself should clear that up.

EDIT: The two are Woodruff and The Residents: Bad Day on the Midway. Not played either, but heard of them both.

EDIT 2: Wait, was that the video you meant, or is it another one you didn't link? It's actually kind of ambiguous.

EDIT 3: Oh, geez, now 9: The Last Resort is on the list of ones we maybe have heard of but we're not sure. Curse you, video! You were supposed to remove things from that list!

EDIT 4: I don't think I know Alice: An Interactive Museum, but something about it is nagging at me a little. @.@

EDIT 5: Okay, it's only an honorable mention, but we did know of Obsidian. And Cosmology of Kyoto! Rei really wants to play that 'cause it takes place where and when she most considers "home," but it's a pain to get it running on modern hardware. Dosbox keeps you from reading what you type into text boxes, so we were gonna set up some kind of VM thingie meant for this sort of thing, but we forgot where we found instructions and don't remember what we need anymore. T-T

EDIT 6: Oh, hey, someone found a fix for the text box issue in Cosmology of Kyoto. Well, kind of. It's not a patch or anything, just... erase the hidden line break character that's in there for some reason, but wasn't on still-backwards-compatible versions of Windows.

Wow, I know three of the games on the main list, and three honorable mentions. You can mainly thank thorhighheels and various horror youtubers through the years. Minimme as well.

Also, weirdly, Brutalmoose. I think he did a video on Bad Milk back in his ancient sarcastic gaming review era.
