Best obscure games you loved?

What are your most beloved obscure games? No matter whether its online or an old consol! A few of mine are Fast food, Milo's Astro Lanes and Lemmings! lol

I never played the game, just watched some gameplays and I thought it was one of the most obscure and mysterious games I ever saw. It is called Little Nightmares. You are a girlish character, that runs in a world of giants, either chefs, human traffickers and other bad guys. The objective is going forwards, by solving interesting puzzles.

Platypus. This was one of those "Space Impact" type games where you control a space ship and shoot the incoming obstacles. It was clay-mation, so I thought it looked great. You can also do a 2 player quest, but since one has to play the keyboard while the other used the mouse, it was obvious the keyboard player is at a disadvantage because using the arrow keys is a lot harder than navigating with a mouse. It was fun; my brothers and I played it while we were kids since the computer we had wasn't that great, and the game had low system requirements.

Forbidden Siren 2. It's a japanese horror game, not that scary, but it left an impact on me. Maybe because I was younger, I don't know, but I remember being disgusted and scared. If I'm correct, the first siren is up for ps4. It's interesting, we can see it's not a new game, but still, I liked it. I remember playing the game in my dark room, and I got so scared I ran out. I was told it was cute, but still, such a wussy I was. :sweatsmile::tearsofjoy:

Hey, I know this one, and this is way too creepy, you see this girl in a raincoat, her name is Six I guess, and she is in the middle of The Maw, which is like the worst dollhouse ever, the freaking game never tells you what to do, so you are sorting a lot of evil characters, and the girl only has like a lighter or a candle. Seriously this a good good one. Agree with this one.

I wanted to play this game since it came out, the trailer is just awesome, but my PC do not have the requirements to run it... Someday I will buy it in a good good PC and I will play it a lot of time.

I am not sure if this counts as "obscure", but for me, I would say Shadow of the Colossus...it's definitely not your typical game, and it most definitely pulled me into its strange world of lost ruins and civilizations, ghosts, and monsters as big as mountains. I always hoped there would be a sequel to this, but never heard of one...

For me, it would have to be Monsterseed and Destrega.

Monsterseed was a little known strategy RPG. It wasn't popular because of the sheer amount of RPGs being released for the PlayStation back then. I didn't like the story, but I loved the grid based combat system wherein you could Summon multiple monsters to the battlefield that you can control. Your opponents were also monster summoners which made battles very challenging. I also loved the monster collecting and evolving aspect of the game.

Destrega was a fighting game for the PS1 that also got lost among all the other more popular fighting games like Street Fighter and Tekken. What made me love this game was its unique system that allowed you to fight the other player no matter where you are in the battlefield. And mind you, the battlefields were huge. It was like DragonBall with projectiles flying left and right. The combat was fast and fun.

I never played the Siren game, but I saw the game review in one of those video game TV shows. I thought it looked great and scary, but at the time I didn't have money to buy the games I wanted, and I couldn't just get a single player game when I had brothers. Most games I got back then were multiplayer-capable, so that we can play games all the time without having to wait.

I'm not sure how obscure it is, but Populace was a game I enjoyed a lot as a kid. You play as a god who manipulates the land to make life better for your followers. Meanwhile the computer plays a devil character who does the same. The whole thing culminates in an Armageddon in which the two sides battle to the end to see who wins.
