Andy's Thread of Obscure Games
The purpose of the thread is to draw attention to under-the-radar games that most people on this forum will not give two sh*ts about, but which someone with a taste for the unusual might find interesting. They won't all be quality titles -- some will be turkeys -- but they'll be interesting in one way or another.
Here is the list of games I've placed in the thread (updated as we go):
1. Republique
2. Mount and Blade
3. Subnautica
4. Koi
5. Adam's Venture: Origins
6. Shadow of the Beast
7. Everything
8. Oxenfree
9. Toren
10. Virginia

Republique
I hadn't heard anything about this game until today. It was announced for release on PS4 on March 22, three weeks from now. It sounded kind of interesting, so I thought I'd put up a thread, just to help draw awareness. It seems to be flying under the radar.
It's a 5-part episodic series, but they're releasing all 5 parts together. It's been out on PC for a while, or at least the first 4 episodes have.
Here is the trailer:
Here's a developer's description:
"For those of you not familiar with Republique, it’s a story-driven stealth action game heavily inspired by the 32-bit era. At the start of the game, players form a partnership with Hope, a young woman trapped inside a secret totalitarian nation called Metamorphosis. From there, players hack into surveillance cameras and guide Hope to freedom over the course of the five-part campaign."
