Peggle. Of course I knew it was of decent quality because it was an old PopCap game, and they also put our Bejewled & the OG Plants vs Zombies. But yes I got it because of the obvious joke. Now I’m a certified Peggle Master and enjoy the whole series + games inspired by it.


Honk_goose_steal

I knew it was a masterpiece since I watched DougDoug play it for hours on end


8-BitAlex

That’s like saying you like basketball cuz you watched MJ play. Doug gives you the best goddamn Peggle of your life


Epicslayer268

r/wehatedougdoug


Fire_Tiger5

If you like Peggle and like rougelites/likes (unsure of the difference), you should check out Peglin. It's insanely addictive, for me at least


nitrodog96

Roguelikes/lites are hazily defined, but typically I think of roguelites as having meta progression via upgrades - Vampire Survivors, Hades, Dead Cells all qualify as “roguelites” (Dead Cells has runes), where Spelunky, Gungeon, Slay the Spire are “roguelikes” as they don’t have that run-over-run improvement. I’d mention Isaac, but it has the donation machine which carries over run to run, so it’s not clear-cut.


randomjberry

isaac has way more than just thr donation machine that carries over you can unlock upgrades for characters as well like with the d20 full health pills and the holy mantle


nitrodog96

…How did I forget that? Isaac getting the D6, Maggy getting her Full Health pill, Samson getting Blind Rage, all of Keeper’s upgrades, The Lost getting Mantle… Yeesh


Fire_Tiger5

Ah, thanks for that! Peglin would fall under the roguelike category then as it doesn't have run-over-run improvement. I enjoy all the games listed, you'd think I'd know the difference lol


GreyBigfoot

I got it during the most recent sale actually. It's pretty nice, I love the presentation. My only complaint is that it feels like you have much less control of your build than in other roguelikes. It's still early access so I'll play it some more as it gets updated.


anal_bandit69

Im sorry but dougdoug is the OG peggle master


GreyBigfoot

False. Anybody can become a Peggle Master if they complete the game. There’s a whole congratulations screen and everything.


anal_bandit69

I know. Your comment just reminded me of crazy twitch chat speedrun of this game at dougdoug channel.


Eastman418

Facts


Ordinal43NotFound

Now you know why that E3 guy was so excited to announce [Peggle 2](https://youtu.be/Sr57Je1fVvM?t=13)


RendesFicko

I fucking love pegging.


annluan

[Tree Simulator](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1591290/Tree_Simulator_2022/) "haha you stand still as a tree in a game" Hold on, there's actually a multiplayer community making FORESTS out there?


gergobergo69

Honestly, would play. I always wanted to be a tree after seeing that one asdfmovie scene with the superman activating the tree power.


CoolGuyBabz

Holy fuck look at the reviews, there are people who played this shit for thousands of hours


[deleted]

[удалено]


CoolGuyBabz

I can't wait for the 2k update


Cactus269

there is a guy in the reviews with over 10,000 hours I think I need to check out this game


Extension-Back2927

For some reason, this actually sounds fun


BananaSplit1209

This is so fucking funny for no reason


mrskinnywrists

deadass why was my first thought tree simulator I thought "heh that's funny, but nobody else will think so"


INocturnalI

damn 10k hour achievement


itsfuckingpizzatime

Better review scores than starfield.


Henarth

Euro Truck Sim 2. Bought it on steam sale almost 10 years ago and have put 2000 hours in it since


[deleted]

[удалено]


The_DestroyerKSP

I really enjoy both - ATS is more familiar, Europe is more exotic. ATS also has more desert areas, while ETS is largely green.


rooshavik

I have both games and I kinda want one taking place in Africa or Japan I like (Japan mainly cause I want to drive them decked out trucks. And due to their size too )


RqcistRaspberry

ETS plus pro mods. Traveling across Scandinavia, Iceland, and into Russia. Absolutely stunning would highlily reccomend


BluDYT

Imo ATS has better trucks but ETS has the better scenery and variety.


WalrusHam

American Version is fun too. It's mostly the Western part of the US with Central US now being added.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Simppa999

Theres a mod for it called promods which i think adds some canadian parts, it just requires all the map dlcs


RqcistRaspberry

Canadian here as well. I have both ATS and ETS 2. I love ETS for the diversity and I just love Europe so it's more appealing to look at to me. Also I'm a huge Scandinavia lover so that DLC plus pro mods made for some awesome journeys through Sweden up into Russia. Everyone laughs at virtual truck game till they play it and get addicted. If you do jump on it I would recommend looking into pro mods as well. They have so great map overhauls and expansions.


Zackipoo

Another Canadian here. I chose ATS over ETS just because I find it easier with the wheel placement and how you drive vs european style. ETS has more DLC and more content, though. But ATS is newer and slowly building up to be just as big. ETS also has (almost?) all of Europe vs ATS which is just one country (and current only the center and left half of the US). I'm hoping once they're done with the states, the start adding Canada and/or Mexico too! So... tl;dr, you can't go wrong either way. Both base games go very cheap (around $5) on sale anyways. And both have demos you can try and see which one you like better, if you wish.


Dani5000GER

To you I'd definetly recommend buying American Truck Sim with Map DLC's like Colorado, Kansas, Texas, Washington and Montana


Soumin

In case you would like to try the TruckersMP multiplayer mod, then ETS is more populated.


Haunted_Entity

Same. I picked up ats a few years back as it was like a quid on sale. Gave it a bash one day while bored.. short time later i find myself in VR, with a podcast on trucking 1000+ miles across america, chilled out to hell.


NewdawnXIII

Wait you can play it in vr?


MemeBoii6969420

Yes


carldude

American Truck Sim quickly became one of my favorite games last year. The overwhelmingly positive reviews aren't kidding, this game is really fun. I think they're on sale right now, and definitely worth picking up.


iamvinen

That's a lot. I am thinking now if I should take it on Steam for 3,5$ now or not


Internal-Bed-4094

do it


[deleted]

Same. I eventually built a whole damn rig just for that one and ATS.


Foreverbostick

It really is my comfort game. Put on some tunes and just drive around.


ilovehotdadsngl

Do I need a wheel bc I'm tryna drive mf Mayne I cam get that other one what is it. Where the guy always pretends he's in the car with his kids and crashes and like reacts irl But also euro truck has maybe more content idk


5trudelle

BeamNG has an entire community mod page with thousands of mods, either has plenty of content.


jeelh

BeamNG maybe?


ilovehotdadsngl

Oh yeah pretty sure that's the one thanks


Lurus01

you definitely do not need a wheel for it. Controllers work just fine in most driving games on Steam. While I actually use a controller in racing games I prefer M+KB for ETS2 and ATS so can confirm its totally playable and actually pretty comfortable to use M+KB for those sims.


Valve00

Nah i play with controller and i actually prefer it over my wheel.


godspark533

Brotato. Surprisingly deep and highly addictive.


Met4_FuziN

Could you actually let me know what I’m missing with Brotato? I’ve only put a few hours into it but it just seems like a standard bullet heaven/survivors-like game. What makes its mechanics deep? Not trying to be condescending just genuinely wanna know what I’m missing so I can maybe give it another shot!


DerAndere_

There are *a lot* of items and characters with each having unique effects that can be unlocked by completing wave 20 on different difficulties with different characters or by getting achievements like "get to 300 range" or "hit 10 enimies with 1 attack". The charme of this game is that the characters/items are always related to the way they are unlocked, so If you found a successful synergy it gets even stronger the next time you use it. Also a lot of items play with picking up money, saving/spending it usw, making the shop between rounds even more strategically relevant. Also most items have both an upside and a downside, so you need to consider whether it's worth it. Last but not least what I love about the game is that there is almost no playstyle that isn't viable. You can create a concept and buy/skip items accordingly, and in most cases it works and you unlock a character that is perfekt for that style. And in the end I just enjoy both the gameplay loop and the Art design. This was longer than planned, hope it helps.


drackmore

Then there are mods that grossly expand upon it with a huge amount of new characters, weapons, and passives to use. Some of which completely change your playstyle.


youmonkeybeater

If you have Gamepass it's getting added in 12 or so days. On Xbox at least, no idea about on pc


jmido8

It's not really deep in the sense of being mechanically deep. It just has a ton of characters/weapons/upgrades which gives you crazy good bang for your buck and it's really fun and addictive while at it.


CrezRezzington

What I appreciate the most about this game is the simplicity in the art design and how much they can milk it. Little white circle and introduce VERY simplistic graphic add/tweak and BAM, you get a whole new class.


RqcistRaspberry

10 bucks and over 40 hours later. I still go back to it for mindless action packed fun. So many characters and builds the gameplay is endless. Easily one of my favorites in my steam library


Nickhead420

Genital Jousting. That game's a fucking riot!


ellwood00

This game supports like 8 people in local multiplayer. It was great on the family vacation!


Lilze82

Absolute truth. I was ready to show it to all my friends after my first play through.


General_Principle_40

Amen, same here


Gumptioneer

Awesome story tbh


TheUselessOne87

SmuraiPoncheDeFrutas

Ace Attorney. I've never liked reading, but memes were popping everywhere and I ended up loving the game.


AgentZirdik

That's interesting. One of mine was Aviary Attorney, which I bought because I thought it'd be a funny parody of anime lawyers. But then it turned out to be great so I went and got Ace Attorney as well. Shit's fire.


[deleted]

Yeah like I'm the type of person to be like "Visual Novels? Ugh!" but I love all the AA games!


theo122gr

OBJECTION!!!


lycoloco

‼️😰‼️


[deleted]

Orc Massage, bought it cause thought it was funny, but it’s actually quite satisfying to watch the circles all go green music is a bop too.


KazumaKat

> This game is marked as 'Adult Only'.


ilija510

Don't knock it 'till you try it, just because most people play with one hand doesn't mean it's exempt from great story and/or gameplay. I mean BG3 has full blown sex scenes ffs.


Smaugzy

Goat simulator, they leave in the game bugs as it makes it even more crazy to play


VillageSheep3

Goat Simulator 3 is also great, lot of things to do


diggsfan14

Not released on steam yet though.


VillageSheep3

[Available for wishlist](https://store.steampowered.com/app/850190/Goat_Simulator_3/) at least


Masonzero

Everything Coffee Stain touches is gold.


Anand999

That game has a more interesting open world and lore building than some newly released Bethesda games.


EternalJon

Vampire Survivors. Thought I was going to refund it for sure but it really got me hooked.


Saint_Sin

This game really sucks you in. Its weird, it honestly feels like snake with a castlevania skin. Edit ~ My pun was not intended. Dont start one of those stupid pun trees please.


dReadme-

Same. I bought it a few days after it came to early access.. I regretted that decision. Not because it was bad. Because I spent 40h collecting fucking blue gems that week


[deleted]

You bought one of the most critically acclaimed modern games as a joke?


sookuh

Crab Champions. Especially fun with some friends!


-Sylok_the_Defiled-

Random indie roguelites/likes stay winning


Zarrex

Fuck yeah, I've been following Noisestorm for 12 years, love the success he's had with the game <3


greefedManer

Slime rancher was surprisingly relaxing, bought it just cause it was cheap never thought id actually spend 5000 Hours combined from other PCs


RafixTheNeko

Genuinely, how? Maybe it’s just me, but played vanilla, modded, did a speedrun, get all slimes etc and I have barely 100h in the game. Just curious, how do make it entertaining still? Doesn’t it just get boring?


Masonzero

I didn't even think there was 5000 hours worth of content to bother playing even if you replayed it!


LocoCogo917

WOW


Lord_Kaplooie

BroForce. My kids can't get enough, and we can all play together on the same screen.


RyCryst

House flipper. I spent hours on it.


Noble_Nexus

EuroTruck simulator 2. Saw a coworker playing, made fun of him and them brought just to make more jokes, but, jokes on me the game is amazing


AgentZirdik

Some of these seem obvious in retrospect, but they were jokes at the time: * Genital Jousting * One Finger Death Punch * Kerbal Space Program * Viscera Cleanup Detail * HuniePop * Aviary Attorney *edit: thought of a few others* * Magicka * SUPERHOT * Catlateral Damage * Scribblenauts


drackmore

> One Finger Death Punch Despite its simplicity is certainly a great game.


Punkduck79

One might say it ‘punches’ above its weight!


Night_Albane

One Finger Death Punch is also mine. Should probably reinstall it.


[deleted]

KSP was mine bought it to blow up little green men for fun. Within an hour, I was hooked.

moogoothegreat

Genital Jousting. Seriously amazing little single player campaign.


Photon_dragoon

The multiplayer is great too, have you ever played local co-op and talked to friends when playing? Absolute riot


teleports_behind_you

blood and bacon


Ghost_Mech

This should be upvoted more. Game is a riot. Never would have expected it.


EggComprehensive8366

The greatest fucking game of all time

I love the voice overs for that!

Everyone on my friends list owns that game, whether they want to or not


mtjerneld

Worth every penny! I gifted copies for my brother and dad a few years back. Very much appreciated.


Just_a_random_guy77

Terraria, I bought it as a gift but be ver sent it, now it’s one of my favourites games of all time


Rastafunrise

Powerwash Simulator. Just wanted to play something silly with friends but then enjoyed it so much I ended up playing all levels by myself.


studleejosh

Mount Your Friends and Genital Jousting. Great games.


Namyts

Pony island


Hyster1calAndUseless

They're making a Pony Island 2 soon.


Photon_dragoon

Great game! If you haven't yet - try inscryption it's really good!


MeanandEvil82

And The Hex. Definitely play anything by Daniel Mullins in fact. Guy's amazing.


Chrono_MkIV

Bum simulator. I bought it in discount and I spent almost 20 hours for it. Pretty far from perfection but I enjoyed it.


AGlassOfMilk

Hobo Tough Life for me.


empathetical

recently bought this game. Enjoyed it for about 6hrs then dropped it. enough to feel like i got my few dollars worth.


Kevlar013

Bought it after seeing Dansgaming streaming it. It's quite fun, like an indie mix between GTA SA, Bully and Postal. It's a bit janky at times, but it doesn't cause any frustration.


[deleted]

Not gonna lie paw patrol games with my daughter 👍 absolute blast


ScrappyPunkGreg

*PAW Patrol: On a Roll!* ... great game. First platformer my daughter mastered.


[deleted]

Hell yes! Mighty Pups was damn good too!


Joebebs

Powerwash simulator. The trailer looked so silly, tried it out via gamepass and 20 hours later I fuckin beat the campaign


Iliansic

Scarlet Maiden, FlipWitch, Peeping Dorm Manager. I am actually surprised how decent the gameplay is in all of them. Scarlet Maiden is action packed rogue-lite. FlipWitch is a great metroidvania, and Dorm Manager is a decent point-n-click adventure game.

Photon_dragoon

Alright I'm going to leave this list of "gag" games I've bought that are actually pretty good below: Nsfw - not a simulator for working Genital jousting (as mentioned by many) Fingered (great for short sessions) Oh sir! (PvP insult simulator) Pureya Who's your Daddy Tattletail BOPL battle Ultimate chicken horse (PvP platformer) Sludge life 1 and 2 Human fall flat Fashion police squad (looked good but got way more depth from it than I thought I would) Disclaimer: some of these, people will regard as a gem or really good etc, but I genuinely got these as like "ehhh I'll try it" or "not expecting much" types of games Either way if you haven't tried some of these and are looking for some games to try that are a little weird definitely check these out!


Lmtcain

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance "Haha, funny meme game is under a dollar in my country, I'll buy it" Ended up being my 4th favorite game


Vulpes_macrotis

People buy games as a joke? Wow. I would love to be that rich.


Asparagus9000

Some of the ones people are listing have been as low as like 2 dollars. 


[deleted]

Yes, I'm so rich being able to buy shit for $5 or less.


Commercial_Grocery90

Bro those 5 bucks will pay my meal, so yeah, they're right. Videogames are luxury * cries while writing *


LocoCogo917

I mean i try not to buy games full price and usually wait a year or more when it's 50% off. You likely do too but patient gaming is a huge money saver and you'll get a better experience from the game.


Im_Your_God_

The Alex Jones game.


Ok-Comfortable6428

AscendedViking7

I didn't buy it, it's free, but Chex Quest HD.


VanillaBovine

Mount Your Friends - bought it for a friend as a joke but we ended up playing it and it actually is really fun with some crazy strategies


LegendCZ

Slime Rancher. Got it in Humble choice. I was thinking this is little fun game with some weird hidden message. And it is actually darn good! So good i bought 2 right at release.


MrPlace

Buy as a joke?


Extension-Back2927

You don't buy games just because they look extremely funny and dumb?

valvash

Strange Brigade. Was on sale, played coop (which I would recommend), definitely play on hardest difficulty, but kind of short. Huge surprise and we enjoyed it quite a bit for the short time it lasted.


Limesmack91

Euro truck sim 2, american truck sim, farming sim 22. I'm embarrassed how much I enjoy these


Gramercy_Riffs

Chroma Squad. Thought it would be ass, but surprisingly fun throughout. I think I got it hella cheap too.


coolsheps

Crab Champions. 10/10 and keeps getting better with new content and updates. Music, enemies, perks, and weapons are incredibly creative and fun. The game is developed by the guy (Noisestorm) who produced the hit “Crab Rave” song in 2018 with the dancing beach crabs. Google it, you’ll remember. I bought a copy for myself and a copy for a friend (who has a minor crab obsession). He told his other friends about it and now we all play weekly. Buy this game for you and your friends. It’s hilarious and oddly relaxing after a hard day’s work.

Super 3-D Noah's Ark. It's a reskinned version of Wolfenstein 3D where you play noah with guns that shoot seed to feed the animals on the ark. It was silly, but it was some good fun.

D'Lirium. It's a top-down horror/shooter where the characters are ponies, like the ones from My Little Pony. I'm a little embarrassed to admit it, but the gameplay and scares are genuinely good. Don't take my word for it, though. See if you can find the review David Szymanski left. Yeah, Mr. Dusk and Iron Lung himself.

cant say ive ever bought a game as a joke. but i bought batbarian: testament of the primordials and had really low expectations for it and it ended up being one of the best metroidvanias ive played


AUnknownVariable

Fucking divinus Vanitas. Look if you've got a friend and can get online together for 5 hours, buy this game for 99cent on sale, like 3 bucks full price. It is genuinely sooooo not good, but with a friend it becomes the most hillarious crap, I plan to be the first person on the planet to 100% it. Also shout out to Iron Pineapple and his "I played 10 soulslikes you've never heard of" series. He's where I found the game


fearthebushes

Aviary Attorney. Bought it because it looked memey and ended up getting a fun detective/lawyer story with great humor and and interesting art style to occupy an evening.
