Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust

Accessible and relaxed

A crude, innuendo-filled Hollywood spoof in which Larry does odd jobs on his uncle's movie lot while hunting a tabloid mole. The humor is almost entirely bawdy jokes, and the gameplay is simple minigames and platforming. It is widely regarded as a failed entry.

GentleMoon 2

Gameplay comes before story

A absurd indie action shooter where you escape zombies by gathering silly items and flying to the Moon in a Santa-themed rocket. The humor is illogical and goofy.

Crazy Taxi 3: High Roller

Gameplay comes before story

Arcade driving through an over-the-top Las Vegas: pick up passengers, take wild shortcuts and deliver them fast to rack up fares and combos. Short, chaotic runs backed by a punk-rock soundtrack.

Deeeer Simulator

Accessible and relaxed

You play a deer loose in a small town, free to either wander peacefully or wreak absurd havoc on everything around. Its silly humor and physics-driven destruction are the main draw.

The Simpsons: Road Rage

Focus on a single character

A Crazy Taxi-style arcade driving game set in Springfield, where you play as characters from the show and rush passengers to their destinations. Authentic Simpsons humor and unlockable vehicles are the main draw.

Fun with Ragdolls: The Game

Gameplay comes before story

A goofy physics sandbox where you flop around as a ragdoll, build your own environments, and try out quirky mini-games. The fun comes mostly from chaotic, unpredictable physics.

Postal III

Action-packed real-time combat

The third entry in the notorious Postal series sends the Postal Dude and his pitbull Champ to the city of Catharsis, where crude, tasteless humor drives the chaos. The shooter is widely criticized for technical flaws and a weak execution.
