Themes:Action, Comedy
Game modes:Single player
Story:Although Redmond (the rabbit) and Spanx (the weasel) are two animals chained together, the gameplay is much like any other platformer. The player controls only Spanx, using Redmond as a weapon or tool as the situation requires. Spanx has most standard platforming abilities, while Redmond is completely indestructible as a result of tests conducted upon him and so can be hurled into security guards, jammed into machinery, and used as a grappling hook, among other uses. Redmond can be inserted into special outlets to be set on fire, frozen, or become radioactive.Show more

I had this game for the original xbox when I was a kid. I also play this game using emulators quite often. A lot of the jokes went over my head as a kid but playing it now I can get a good laugh here and there. I would like to see a PC port of this game.
Hidden GEM right here, this classic action platformer has never been talked about by anyone I've ever met or seen online, which is a shier tragedy. This games humor is dated, I know because I'm replaying it with my girlfriend right now, but 80% holds up and the game play is so crisp and perfect. the only 3d platformer on it's level in the last 10 years is psychonauts 2. I had this as a kid on ps2 but never beat it, I aim to now as an adult but want to throw more money at this game because it deserves it. It deserves a new life, and new fans while keeping it alive for the old ones and that's where gog owns the market.
I found this game when trying to find titles with Mustelid/Weasel representation in them and proceeded to buy and complete it on OG Xbox. The wacky concepts and absurd theme of saving animals through animal abuse was hilarious, but what really sticks with me is the animations, character personalities, goofy albeit adultish jokes, dynamic music that's a blast to listen to, and some hefty, satisfying platforming action. Too bad the middle of the game SLAPS your butt with a ball-busting mess: the Shipping and Waste Department levels. Utterly horrific and confusing with their layout and how to progress in them. The final stint of the game was much better thankfully. All said and done, easily one of the best platformers on Xbox, and super underrated game in general. I'd love to see this on PC/GOG with slightly updated visuals, but even a straight port with widescreen support would be epic!
Dark humor in games is quintessential fun & wrecking stuff with a plushy is also fun. I only played it once, but I would love to play it again and add it to my mischievous game collection (Goat Simulator, Psychonauts, Katamary Damacy, Dr. Muto, Crash, Spyro, Penny's big breakaway)

KuonKuon is a horror game set in Heian period (12th century) in Japan. You control three protagonists in the game. The story revolves around a man named Doman, an exorcist who was summoned by one of the noblemen to investigate a cursed manor. His daughter Utsuki is out to search for him when he doesn't return, and her sister is charmed by demons inhabiting a mysterious castle, turning into a demon herself. A young girl named Sakuya, Doman's disciple, also ventures into the depths of the demonic world, to prove herself worthy of her master. Once the player completes Utsuki's and Sakuya's scenarios, they unlocks the third scenario where they experiences the story from the point of view of Doman himself.
The game is a mixture of third-person action and puzzle-solving. As in all survival horror games, your means of defense are limited and scarce. Unlike most games of the kind, physical attacks with weapons are not your only way to defend yourself against hordes of undead creatures. You can also learn and cast spells in the game, and even summon creatures (wolves, spiders, etc.) to fight at your side.Action Fantasy Horror Survival

Tak and the Power of JujuAn ancient prophecy foretells that the Moon Juju, the kind protector of the Pupanunu people, would be weakened by the evil Tlaloc, an embittered Pupanunu shaman, so he could turn the Pupanunu people into sheep as revenge for not being made high shaman in favor of another shaman, Jibolba. The prophecy also mentions a great and mighty warrior who would restore the Moon Juju, defeat Tlaloc, and bring peace to the Pupanunu people.
Having escaped Tlaloc's spell, Jibolba believes his apprentice Lok to be the warrior of the prophecy and prepares to send him off; however, it appears that Lok has been turned into a sheep. Jibolba sends his younger apprentice, Tak (voiced by Jason Marsden), to find magical plants and change him back, though it turns out not to be Lok. Jibolba tells Tak to obtain the Spirit Rattle, which allows the wielder to communicate with powerful Juju spirits to assist him, while he finds Lok.
Tak returns with the Rattle to find that Lok has been trampled to death by a herd of sheep. Jibolba has Tak collect 100 magic Yorbels and Lok's spirit from the spirit world, allowing him to successfully resurrect Lok. An unfortunate side-effect of the resurrection, however, is a severe case of diarrhea. Tak obtains the Moon Stones instead while Lok recovers, restoring the Moon Juju to full strength.
The Moon Juju reveals that the warrior of the prophecy is not Lok, but Tak, as he has already fulfilled almost everything the prophecy predicted. Using his arsenal of Juju spells, Tak defeats Tlaloc and turns him into a sheep, finally fulfilling the prophecy.Action Comedy
