I'm not sure whether the art or the riddles are the best thing about this stunt . Some such as Get the King to the Toilet are just straight-up funny concepts, while others are a tiny bit more pointed. Take The Consecration Of Esthme, which is found by solving this riddle:"The horror the horror, pretentious explorers / This one’s the father of all arty snorers."
The thing that these games get absolutely right is the veneer of plausibility: we've all seen a hundred games on Steam that look like these kinds of things, and it's easy to imagine players scrolling by without giving many of these a second thought. "Erik Wolpaw and Jay Pinkerton came up with the names/descriptions for Clorthax's fake games," writes Hummel,"and then I just tried to match their energy in the final art. Super fun trying to make plausibly polished logos in a whole bunch of different styles/genres."
My favourite has to be the art for Hold In Your Farts, which channels the kind of language and layout used by games like Evony by enquiring whether YOU could be budget Gandalf's next champion.You’ll find riches in rhythm, and fame in six strings / But beware the tax burden axe mastery brings!
I dunno, I think a game where you guide a King to his royal shitter through a maze-like castle might actually sell
A third of anything
