There's a lot of talk about "best games" and "worst games" but I want the most bizarre games of 2020 to get their due!
Here's a short list of my favorite bizarre games this year:
Paradise Killer - A totally weird detective game set on an island in a pocket dimension featuring a cult that worships Lovecraftian space-gods and a vaporwave aesthetic, this game is hands-down the most bizarre game of the year for me. And yet so great to play! Exploring the game's world, learning the intricacies of the cult and the characters, and of course solving the murder at the heart of the game, definitely makes it both weird and great.
Wide Ocean Big Jacket - A weird little game about awkward kids and their awkward guardians on an awkward camping trip. There were numerous points in the game of just bizarre silliness but it also really was a touching story that I really enjoyed.
The Pedestrian - A puzzle-platformer where you play as that little dude who's in the WALK sign at crosswalks and you end up maneuvering through a bunch of street signs to end up in a very weird place! The ending of the game is truly bizarre and made it stand out even though it feels like it came out a hundred years ago at this point.
