I was thinking about playing High on Life shortly after the release but I’ve seen a few reviews that depict the game (or maybe just the jokes) as so-so.

I think Portal 2 is probably one of my favorite games that has a lot of humor at it’s core. But I can’t say I’ve played a ton of games where that is a front-and-centre core element. I know there are some cult classics out there that I haven’t gotten around to playing yet like Conker’s Bad Fur Day and Psychonauts.

It also doesn’t need to be an entire game. The Hotline Miami 2 workshop content GARFIELD CAMPAIGN made me laugh.

Edit: Bonus points/extra challenge if it’s not on PC. While I do game almost exclusively on PC I would be curious to hear what’s out there for handhelds like GBC, PS Vita, 3DS, PS2, PSX, and so on.

    Its a bit extreme, but crack-life for half-life. You know there are some people saying they get brain rot from memes? This is like the bottom of a sinkhole for your iq. Every sound is some random effect, the wortigons have afros, the headcrabs are British, your hud is in webdings, the soldiers speak in old tts and the smg has infinite fast firing grenade launcher.

    Is a lot, and while you are lost in a word where nothing makes sense, you are losing your ass off. If that’s isn’t enough, there’s a standalone mod, that’s even stupider, even bigger, even more bizarre.

    But it’s probably not for everyone, its very 2000 edgy humor, so if it’s not your thing, don’t force yourself with it (might wanna check some vids, Jolly has a good ones, but i think he deleted it some time ago).
