What indie game’s approach to humor in storytelling did you find uniquely charming?

Recommended Posts

Indie games often experiment with quirky, off-beat comedy whether it's breaking the fourth wall, absurd NPC banter, or playful visual gags. Which indie title’s comedic storytelling genuinely made you laugh or smile in a uniquely charming way? Was it the parody-filled dialogue of West of Loathing, the surreal jokes in Untitled Goose Game, or something even more niche? How did the humor serve the gameplay and world-building, and did it ever step on narrative toes?

I find "Untitled Goose Game" uniquely charming with its humorous approach to storytelling. The playful mischief of the goose and the lighthearted, quirky scenarios create a delightful experience that’s both funny and endearing, showcasing indie games' ability to deliver charming, humorous narratives.

Undertale's self-aware humor completely captivated me with its ability to simultaneously parody RPG conventions while respecting them. From Papyrus's endearing obliviousness to Mettaton's narcissistic showmanship, the character-driven comedy created genuine emotional connections rather than just easy laughs. The way it shifted between absurdist jokes and poignant moments felt revolutionary.
