Mutant Night is such a bizarre game I can barely even comprehend it existing.

The game is kinda bullshit but the art is fairly unusual.

Rastan Saga 2 aka Nastar has a rather distinctive art style. It was a good example of the "bigger sprite better" era of thinking

The Sentinel
such a weird yet brilliant game. most of it takes place inside your head, paranoids must hate it.

3D isometric games are ten a penny, but Knight Lore on the Speccy had this unique quality that puts it far above all the others

I have nothing to contribute but GOOD THREAD. >>9731198 is my favorite, never heard of it until now and apparently there's a Steam version of it.
