Should I make this a series? ⬇ Also, feel free to come hang out in my discord server: discord.gg/tp32Y9Aw8M ABOUT THE TITLE. I've had at least five of you point out that it's "pique" not "peak", I know, I used "peak" as a play on words with the slang term that describes something that is very good. "It's peak" "It's kino".
@@AndroChimera good to hear! I think I'll do this kinda thing with shorter games, to give variety, but if I find something I really like I'll do a dedicated video for it (DoBaD for example, loved that game as well)
Loved this video, hope you'll consider making it a series if you find a lot more hidden gems like these. As for a suggestion, *Dread Delusion* is one of, if not my favorite indie game to date. Incredible exploration-focused open world RPG set in a really weird steampunk fantasy world. The gameplay doesn't reflect it, but the setting and lore gives it a very distinct Morrowind vibe, and although there obviously isn't as much content as in a Bethesda RPG, it's more than you might expect. I think you might like it
Dread Delusion gang rise up. I got this a long time ago in a Humble Bundle, played it randomly when I saw it was out of EA and loved every single minute of it. Fantastic game.
thanks for giving brush burial some shine 💚 i appreciate you having the patience to see it thru to the end, despite its unkind nature. wonderful picks for the other games too
Hey dude, just dropped a sub. Instantly recognized your voice from the rpg roguelike video and said "oh yeah, i liked this guy". Anyways keep up the good work brother some really nice editing in this one 👍
Another obscure game that is similar to Gnomes is Luckitown by the Sokpop Collective. A dice-based tower defense where the enemies only move when you take a turn rolling dice. Kinda free-form what and where you build things.
Just watched your 3 latest videos, and when i went to check if there were more like this I was quite disappointed there wasn't more to watch. Were you a youtuber with 100k+ subscribers I would have believed it. Keep up the good work man, one of my favourite videos I have watched lately.
Good work on the video - breezy and well edited! Love recommending and finding nice lil games myself, so props to you for the endeavor. If you liked Berserk Mode, I highly suggest Mortal Sin - I think you'll find it to be exactly what you wanted out of Berserk Mode! Other than that, you simply need to check out Space Beast Terror Fright. You'll love it.
I thought this was a much bigger channel watching this video. Great work, you've earned a subscriber and I hope to see a series out of this. I love the similar art style to things like Cruelty Squad and playstyle to Ultra Kill.
3 kinda old (from around 2014) games that I enjoyed a lot and that none of my friends know are Gunpoint (stealth puzzle game where you must get into buildings and eliminate guards through hacking), Zombie Night Terror (simply Lemmings with zombies but the levels are really creatives and I really like the pixel art) and finally Westerado Double Barreled (Far West themed open world pixel art game where you do various quests to get clues on who might be the murderer (randomly generated npc) that killed your family and burned your farm. All of those game imo are worth their price (7-15$) but you can always just wishlist them and wait for sales, give them a look!
@dopeydoom Lunacid is such a weird and unique experience, and it is similar to the third game you showed in terms of graphic, also so many hidden secrets (combat is a bit lacking but not the main focus of the game), Tiny Rogues on the other hand... it is simply insane... like no words to describe its potential I have like over 300 hours into it and it is still in early access... extreme level of variety and complexity you can build during your runs
Thanks for the video! Unsure if you care, but two pretty obscure games I personally have recently really enjoyed (and would love if the devs got a bit more attention) would be "Brawl Tactics: Origins," a fun Final Fantasy Tactics-like Roguelite, and "Gobs and Gods", a sort of surrealist strategy battle-brothers like game. Maybe if those seem interesting, coverage on them could help those devs out a lot! Oh, there's also "Edengrall", a sort of farming sim. Its weird and a bit jank and not really to my taste (Far too contemporary anime), but the developers are incredibly active.
I know this is a month old, but you would probably like Diceomancer it’s a fun little roguelike deck builder that has incredible taste in art direction and its gimmick the one die is probably one of my favorites
If you ever decide to make this a series, I recommend either RYM 9000 or Critters for sale, they're by the same creator and I wish more people were aware of them
Don't know how famous the game is, but I started playing Heros adventure - road to passion, a Chinese jrpg (chrpg?) like a month ago and I abandoned every other game. It's full of stats to grind and it feels very unfamiliar and new since it's based in Chinese folklore, even time is measured in units I'm not accustomed to
I'd recommend a game called HorrorVale It's a game about classic horror monsters and folklore creatures fighting creepypasta parodies. It's a turn-based RPG made in RPG Maker, so it has no real big gimmick. The game only took 50 hours for me to 100% complete. I'd love to see you talk about it
some other obscure games: angels gear, hellscreen, wild bastards is still somehow obscure, rose, muffled warfare, god damn the garden, the edge of allegoria, shrine and shrine 2, thunder helix, golden krone hotel, legends of amberland, maj'eyal is somewhat obscure outside of hardcore roguelike fans, moonlaw, squadblast, and lycanthorn. all of these games have under a thousand reviews on steam. also, the rusty lake games aren't super obscure but they are severely underrated.
thanks for the recommendations, I'll take a look at these, shrine and shrine 2 though are already two of my favourite games, used to play them loads when I was younger Edit: thanks for so many, wishlisted a hand full of these
check out battlezone commander its a remaster of battzlezone 2 but its a rare real time strategy from the first person shooter perspective worth a look at least

Here's a rough list off the top of my head: Intro - Marchin' with the Swamp Spiders - Noita OST. Uberslaught intro - Temper - Link is in the description. The Gnomes OST is not on RUclips to my knowledge, I just recorded it from the game. Berserk Mode - The OST is on youtube, by Cletus Lupus Brush Burial - Again the OST is on youtube, it's called Seabreather Sessions by Damon Albrecht
subscribed liked, good video. For some reason RUclips is connecting this is the 2004 Obscure game, I was wondering if you knew if any interesting AI vs AI games?
Thank you! Yeah not sure why RUclips did that. As for games, I don't know any of the top of my head, but I know Terraria has a mod that lets you make the bosses fight each other I beleive, you may also be able to make npcs fight although I'm not sure, hope this helps.

1:34 they're called immersive sims, uberslaughter is only similar in the schizophrenic artstyle (people who shorten it to schizo don't know that schizo is smthn different just read it as schizophrenic) there are a couple other games that share similar choices like the more popular mullet mad jack, postvoid, but most are very deep into the rabbit hole like "god damn the garden", or, and knowledge of this game is a gift btw, "BRAZILIAN DRUG DEALER 3: I OPENED A PORTAL TO HELL IN THE FAVELA TRYING TO REVIVE MIT AIA I NEED TO CLOSE IT"
