A forum for all those games that no one really knows/talks about
from games like the rest of the mystery dungeon series like Shiren the wanderer or games which are gaining more popularity like the atelier series, lesser known farming sims like rune factory or lesser known indie games
this is the place to talk about them!

Hi

(also no, crosscode is not niche, the thing has more reviews on steam than the other 3 games i mentioned have on all platforms combined)
hasty moon
sure

I've got the most niche game ever, it was an xbox live arcade exclusive, and I am one of the only people in the world to have uploaded a video on it. In fact it's probably so niche that nobody here even cares. The game is called "Really Scary"
It's a series, Really Scary 1, 2 and 3
I've uploaded (bad quality) videos of Really Scary 1 and Really Scary 3 here if anyone is interested:

Luckily I recently got a capure card so I will re-record all of this in 1080p VERY SOON (The current videos are recorded on a chromebook camera pointed at my tv 💀 )

To be fair at this rate call of duty may just be well known but have a niche community of people who enjoy the latest title

how am i gonna tell people about my favorite niche nintendo ds game now
(its Ecolis: save the forest, incase anyone wants to look into it. note that its known as eco-creatures: save the forest outside of japan and europe)
cute little somewhat pikmin-like rts for the nintendo ds (pikmin like in that you command a bunch of ittle guys while controlling a figure thats physically present on the battlefield, not in that theres big areas to explore and collect stuff in)

Found a game which ig isn't as niche now but still a bit via jelloapocalypse
Watched about 10 minutes into it and stopped to play the demo it's pretty interesting. In Stars and Time if you wanna check it out
Best way to describe it is you're at the final dungeon of an rpg and also in a time loop. You're siffrin, the guy who speeds up the team and checks for traps, meaning you die a lot. Also the combat is based on rock paper scissors so every enemy and party member is rock paper or scissors and the way you figure out what type enemies are is cool
Like here look at this image. It contains everything you need to know which of the two enemies not being hit is which type

Ooo

Spoiler for if you give up on guessing
||look at the hands||
Demo is also pretty meaty. Like hour of content

I’ll contribute Invisigun: Reloaded. A party game where (if you couldn’t guess from the name) the core conceit is that everyone’s invisible and is trying to shoot the players with a gun. It’s genuinely one of the best games I’ve played, but it’s all but dead now bc it never caught on
Turns out, when all the gameplay is invisible, it’s really hard to market it to new people
It’s $5 on steam or switch, and free on mobile but you have to pay to unlock every character
And it supports crossplay between all three
But like I said, the game’s basically dead and the only way to play a match is to ask on the invisigun discord or convince a couple friends to play it with you
