I am looking for a game that will make me laugh a lot. I already played Disco Elysium and I am currently playing Stanley’s Parable
Portal and Portal 2 are natural follow-ups to Stanley Parable if you haven’t played them yet.
I also found the bone dry and character driven humor of Tactical Breach Wizards to be very entertaining, on top of it being an incredible game mechanically as well. 10/10.
If you’re okay with very casual games, give Thank Goodness You’re Here a try (and it’s apparently on sale currently)
I wonder if the name and concept are inspired by the improve comedy Thank God You’re Here, which I notice had an international version in the UK among many other countries.
The classic Lucas Arts adventures. Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, Sam & Max, Grim Fandango.
Turnip boy commits tax evasion was a surprisingly sweet chuckle the whole way through.
Esoteric Ebb is a d&d narrative RPG in the mould of Disco Elysium. It has sharp writing and parodies d&d tropes in some unexpected ways.
I must add the sequel Turnip Boy Robs a Bank which is completely different from the first one gameplay-wise but it retains the same energy XD
High on Life is pretty good. Didnt get far into the sequel.
The funniest parts happen early on in the game too, imo it peaks when you collect the knife, so if it doesnt interest you by then with gameplay or humour its safe to drop it early.
Never has a game made me laugh out loud like when I first discovered it. Clever humour, unique characters, and each line of dialogue is packed with effortless charm and wit. Not to mention the philosophical themes disguised as one man’s quirky Day of the Dead -themed quest to get to the afterlife.
The puzzles are a product of its time so a walkthrough might be needed. But that’s forgivable for the game’s big picture.
Wish I could wipe my memory of it and play it all over again.
I really enjoyed the slapstick of jazzpunk. If that is your kind of humor.
The original psychonauts had me laughing all the way through, the sequel is also very charming tho it felt a little darker.
Portal 2, Stephen Merchant provides most of the humor with his voice acting for Wheatley.
Wheatley was valuable in the moments, but it’s the Cave Johnson (JK Simmons) lines I’m still quoting I’m the face of adverse situations
I was rather charmed by the humour of Tactical Breach Wizards.
Octodad: dadlieist catch is funny the first time through. The savage planet games you might enjoy or might find grating.
Goat Simulator 3 is silly ridiculous. If you want to not think and just laugh at stupid/funny shenanigans, this would do it.
Undertale* is a classic and must-play.
*might also make you cry
You should give Full Throttle a go if you like point and click adventure games.
Excellent game, but I don’t remember it being funny. Maybe I need to replay it, its been so many years.
The Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet Of Chaos was hilarious. The dialogue is just fantastic let alone all the little details that you may (or may not) catch.
