Yolked

Distinctive, stylised art style

You guide an egg that climbs, grabs and swings its way through absurd, physics-driven obstacles. Its mix of silly humor and maddeningly precise movement is what makes it stand out.

Octodad: Dadliest Catch

Bright, upbeat tone

You play an octopus in a suit pretending to be a human dad, wrestling with deliberately floppy tentacle controls to complete everyday chores. The awkward physics produce constant slapstick, and it is even funnier in co-op.

City Climber

Bright, upbeat tone

A goofy physics-driven climbing game where you scramble through varied environments, constantly falling and causing chaos. There's a light story, but the real draw is the funny failure.

Grapple Hoops

Fast pace

A fast first-person action game where you swing with a grappling hook, wall run and slide, and take down enemies with a basketball. It mixes basketball, parkour and explosions.

I am Bread

Bright, upbeat tone

You control a slice of bread, wrestling with deliberately clumsy physics-based controls as you climb through household environments to reach a toaster. The awkward handling delivers absurd humor and frustration in equal measure.

Octodad

Respects your time

You play an octopus in a suit passing as a human dad, wrestling with everyday chores using floppy tentacles. The deliberately clumsy controls create chaotic slapstick comedy.
