Released as a short adventure in 2003, the series' starting point has been given a sound and visual remaster — and it still splits the players who show up hoping for the heft of the chapters that came later.
A short, linear game where household chores hide six adult scenes — and the people who played it split not over the art, but over how much of it still feels unfinished.
Over the past several years, anyone trying to drop into a match has run into the same empty lobby, and that empty lobby is pretty much the whole story of how the game was received.

Across four chapters painted in watercolor, ink and digital media, a lone creator traces the whole life of a whale calf on a planet that doesn't exist.
Finding the 100 Parisian cats takes one screen and a looping soundtrack; the rest of the series is sold apart, and anyone who arrived in 2025 found the same game that shipped at launch.

A retro shooter, still in early access, where players cheer on its own chaos — but the same game that entertains by breaking down also wipes out all your progress every time it shuts itself off.

Every round lets you build the trap the next player has to get through — and, going on what players report, the thing does not always even get as far as launching.
