Dark Skye is what you mean by the Skittles game right? That was actually quite decent.

[Doubler]

Darkened Skye.
Yes, it's just the concept of using Skittles for magic.
But as you might have guessed from the edit, I was referring to entermercials (or commtainment? :P) in general.

[Carcaroth]

What exactly do we mean by "weird"? That's really controverse.

I remember a really cool game from when I was real little. I can't remember the name though.

I remember it had talking slugs, a purple cat, a scene where tiny people tie you up, and a queen that insults constantly. I think it was an adventure game.

Shiningserpnt, I see you just joined, and welcome. But please: No necro posting, meaning don't dig up dead topics from under the heap. A lot of people here tend to frown on that, you see. Let the ancients rest.

Now: Is this a request, or a stroll down memory lane? If it's a request, then you should post it in the Request thread, if it's just memories, then please find a more appropriate topic. A discussion about the weirdest game hardly seem like the obvious topic to post in. I'm sure you agree.

By all means, keep posting and contribute. Just post in living, relevant topics in the relevant forums or make your own topic in the relevant forum

It was kind of both, It was quite a wierd game, one of the wierdest I've played.

Alice - jumper / FPS with great graphics from the book fun & wierd scenery / boss battles!

The Prisoner 2 (Atari 8 bit / Apple 2/ / PC) Somewhat base on the show, tough puzzles, messes with your head all the time - even threatens to reformat your drive! Search the web for a good interview with the author David Milch on the history of this game.

Remember Atari 8 bit "Revenge of the Lamas" (something like that) with space invaders type play and purple lamas running amok!

Typing game House of the Dead which was great way to learn how to type to shoot zombies!

Chris Crawford games Balnce of Power fame - atari 8 bit game on relationships (forgot the name) where you intract with males and females in influencing people type game. He was trying to create good AI computer oppenets which seem as real life humans in thinking. Also Excaliber which had King Author's roundtable where Merlin can cause plagues and if you got too chummy with Guinevere your other Knights got mad and would revolt against you.

Alien vs Predator 2 Besides single play from all three races as the baby alien you eat (brust) your way out of somebody's stomach(!) at one point.

Old "Deathrace 2000" running over people for points and tombstones.

Man, just try to figure out what this game is about. It's by the makers of Ascendancy, my all time favorite game. But when I bought this when it was released, I was a bit disappointed. It just too strange and abstract. Its got floating islands, life forces, and some of the strangest aliens in any game I've ever seen.

"And, on an old all time favourite of mine: The concept of Lazy Jones is kinda weird: A game about playing computer games."

i never figured out the story of that game, but its fun to play and got cool music..

the most weirdest game i remember is "Bath Time" for the C64, where you are supposed to fill up a bath for some guy while dodging animals (atleast i think you got killed by them) crazy sh*t i tell ya

This may be old, but he didn't really do anything wrong, it's not like he res a request topic that had already been resolved, I mean, this is a topic you can res because it's not like the subject matter ever grows old or irrelevant, it's better than making a new one.
