I'm putting this in general because this is all inclusive, console, PC, boardgame, browser game, whatever. I was going through my games and I found one that I bought because it was so bizarre I was curious and thought it would make a good thread. So if you've played a strange game tell us what it's about and if it is worth trying.
The game I'm talking about is Chulip for PS2. It's a (mostly) kid friendly adventure game about kissing. You want to kiss some girl but you have to practice first and get all sorts of other people to kiss you. IIRC you level up based on how many kisses you get and you have to like get all sorts of items and stuff to improve your chances and do certain things for certain people. Also it's bi-curious cuz you kiss dudes too. For an adventure/RPG game it is surprisingly well put together and a lot of the stuff is super bizarre and surreal like a bad acid trip. I'd recommend it if you are curious and can find it for $10 or less (I got it for like $20).

Video Review (thanks to duck)
I don't think I've played a lot of really weird games, I remember Little Nemo and Monster Party, both on the NES, being weird when I was a kid, especially monster party.

I remember seeing tons of new copies of Chulip always sitting around.
And um... I guess Culdcept is sorta weird... being a cross between MTG and Monopoly. Â Also it's totally awesome.
A couple days ago one of my cousins had a game night over at her place and one the board games we played was
Quelf. It was one of the most wierdest/awesomest board games I've ever played. Cranium has nothing on this game.
not counting all those weird Homebrew japanese games, like the Tifa (FFVII) strip beat'em up. I'd say the weirdest i've ever played is Cubivore, it was a fun game but jesus it was weird D:
Restaurant or Kitchen (I forget) Panic, for the NES. Shit be crazy. Think Mario, kinda...but with food.

Did it inspire a young luca to be a chef?
A Boy and his Blob always stood out as weird to me.
Also hard as fuck to beat.
A boy and his blob was weird... I thought sexy beach was weird because all you had to do to get the chicks off was move the mouse around in a super fast circle... no waiting, just BANG!

welcome to brighton.
just realised 1 maybe 2 people will get that joke.
The XX/XY and Rub Rabbits games are pretty messed up, yet very awesome.
I remember playing this physics based game where you would make a guy fall down the stairs and the score would be based on how much damage he sustained from the fall.
This flash game where you have to fart as much as possible, as stealthily as possible, in a crowd of people.
The WarioWare titles are pretty wacky.

[/quote]Could have had something to do with it.
I'm surprised Katamari Damacy hasn't been mentioned.

I guess, it's pretty well known and played I thought by now, so I didn't see it necessary to bring up.
Metal Wolf Chaos, but it was more funny then weird.
Robot find Kitten is also a little strange....
Rocket Crowbar is pretty damn weird, if that counts.
I'm going to go with either Illbleed for the Dreamcast or Samurai Zombie Nation for the NES.
