Mine would definitely have to be “Midnight at Al’s Self Storage, Truck Rentals, and Discount Psychic Readings,” which immediately reminded me of the viral “Jones’ BBQ and Foot Massage” video. Coincidentally, Before it was Jones’ good ass BBQ and foot massage, it was Jones’ big ass truck rental and storage.
Use Your Psychic Powers at Applebee’s still makes me giggle
Big Barbarian’s Tiny Adventure as well, but more so in the context of the game itself.
Boing!, because I am not immune to funny onomatopoeia
Seven Steps To Limbo, is another funny one to me
The Trolley Problem Problem, also that one
I think 16 Ways to Kill a Vampire at Mcdonalds is my favorite, followed by Use Your Psychic Powers at Applebees.
Clearly if you want to win Aster’s heart, you need to write a game with a supernatural event at a chain restaurant.
Perform an Exorcism at Chili’s
Astrally Project Yourself at Red Lobster
Reanimate Frankenstein’s Monster at Benihana
Complete the Alchemical Wedding at Dunkin’ Donuts
… yeah, this works.
Pick Up The Phone Booth And Die
A Freak Accident Leaves Seattle Pantsless
Space Aliens Laughed at my Cardigan
Party Arty, Man of La Munchies
Banana Apocalypse and the Rocket Pants of Destiny (…by @emshort )
Another Lifeless Planet and Me With No Beer
Journey to Alpha Centauri (In Real Time)
The Game Formerly Known as Hidden Nazi Mode (…by @VictorGijsbers )
Disclaimer: I have not played all of these. The titles simply caught my eye and landed on my “interest piqued” list. Play at your own risk.
I cannot believe that first one is real.
Journey to Alpha Centauri (In Real Time) and Slap That Fish had me laughing in an empty room, ahahaha! Absolutely perfect titles!
Not exactly real titles, but some funny random combinations: IF Name Generator updated
I’ve played Travel to Alpha Centauri in Realtime. It is in fact the travel to A.C. in realtime! If you have some knowledge about astrophysics, you can guess that I didn’t finish it. XD
Also many, many very funny titles in this thread
Oh my gawd, they actually did it.
Maybe not as funny, but since they haven’t been mentioned yet:
Chicks Dig Jerks
Max Blaster and Doris de Lightning Against the Parrot Creatures of Venus
The one about the chicken, the lion and the monkey?
Yes, Another Game with a Dragon!
A few more I forgot:
Leather Goddesses of Phobos
Till Death Makes a Monk-Fish Out of Me
To Hell in a Hamper
The Beetmonger’s Journal
Counterfeit Monkey
Dead Pavane for a Princess
Reference and Representation: An Approach to First-Order Semantics
Sir Ramic Hobbs and the High Level Gorilla
Vindaloo
That of course leads to the in-joke-tastic Pick Up the Phone Booth and Aisle.
And sticking with the meta theme, there’s always Being Andrew Plotkin.
Midnight. Swordfight.
Cheating with the author attribution, maybe, but:
