Space Station Silicon Valley (1998)
Genres:Platform, Puzzle
Themes:Action, Comedy, Science fiction
Game modes:Single player
Story:A space station that was built more than 1000 years before by Earth, shortly after its launch, vanished. The station has since then mysteriously reappeared and it's bound on a collision course with Earth. Unless Dan and Evo can stop it, all will surely perish. The idea behind the game is fairly simplistic: players take on the role of Evo, a robotic microchip that possesses the unique ability to take over the bodies of dead (robotic) animals. Evo makes his way through a variety of levels and worlds filled with different objectives and, of course, different animals.Show more

Dear Esteemed GOG Team,
We come to you with a request of absurd importance: please add Space Station Silicon Valley to your DRM-free library. It’s a game where a robot named Evo controls a bunch of bizarre robotic animals with ridiculous abilities—and it needs to be on your platform.
Imagine: Evo inhabiting a spring-loaded robotic critter that launches him like a defective circus act, a robotic rat squeezing into places it has no business being, and a robotic scorpion that literally stabs its enemies. Oh, and the best part: a polar bear tank. It’s not a polar bear in a tank—it’s a polar bear that’s a tank with tank treads for legs, crushing everything in its path.
The plot? Evo’s brain gets fused with a robotic dog, and he has to save a space station by jumping into various robotic animals with absurd abilities. There’s a robotic camel that functions as a mobile artillery unit, a robotic sheep that launches itself out of cannons, and a robotic bird... just for some mild variety. It’s the kind of weirdness that makes absolutely no sense but somehow works perfectly.
GOG, you’re the kings of quirky, nostalgic, and weird games. Space Station Silicon Valley is the ultimate bizarre classic, and it’s ready for the absurd joyride you can provide. The community needs this game.
Add it to your store, and we’ll bring an artillery robot camel to your headquarters. It’s fully armed. It’s coming. And don’t worry—it’ll be fine. Probably.
Yours in chaos and nostalgia,
A group of fans who definitely want a digital artillery robot camel.
P.S. The artillery robot camel’s coming. Brace yourselves.
Such a chill game with a chill soundtrack. Escapism at its best. Enjoy the vibes and goof off with all the different animals. Its one of those games you would totally make as a kid if you had any idea how.

Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black WaterFatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water is a survival horror video game developed by Koei Tecmo and published by Nintendo for the Wii U. The fifth main entry in the Fatal Frame series, it was released in Japan in September 2014 and worldwide in October 2015. As with previous games in the series, players navigate areas filled with hostile ghosts which must be fought by taking photographs using the Camera Obscura, which is directly controlled using the Wii U gamepad. A post-endgame story featuring Ayane, a character from the company's Dead or Alive series, is also available featuring altered gameplay mechanics. The story, which is set on the fictional Hikami Mountain, focuses on three protagonists who are drawn into supernatural events revolving the area, including an ancient ritual to seal away Yomi, a malevolent force corrupting the surrounding spirits that is tied to the fate of the titular shrine maiden Ouse Kurosawa.
Planning for the game began in 2011, during the projection of the Wii remake of Crimson Butterfly. The game was first proposed by series co-creator Keisuke Kikuchi when he saw the Wii U hardware and the possibilities of the gamepad becoming the Camera Obscura. The game was a joint production effort between Koei Tecmo and Nintendo Software Planning & Development, with Kikuchi and fellow co-creator Makoto Shibata returning as to their respective posts of producer and director, together with staff from the previous series entry Mask of the Lunar Eclipse and developers new to the series. The cast went through several revisions during development, while the staff experimented with the capacities of the new hardware. As with previous games, it features a theme song by Tsuki Amano. Upon release, the game received critical acclaim for its use of the gamepad and dark atmosphere, while opinions were mixed on its story, portrayal of its female characters, and other aspects such as its pacing and controls.Action Horror Survival
