This one might just be an urban legend, but it's the kind of game that fits this thread perfectly, if you catch my drift [:-devil]
Go ahead and post the weirdest games you've played, there are a lot out there, and I'd like to get to know a few. [:-crazy]
Here's another one that fits, I still love this one.

n2j3, I had thought of those two games as well, those fit perfectly into what I had thought, hehe. Both are great :)
As for that Polybius game, I'll only believe it if I see it, and it might just be an hoax, but it's a pretty strange story hehe [:D]

Erm i guess you can call Pong an abstract game but i think its lacking in the weirdness dept.... so you're slightly O.T there [:p]

pong wasnt the most addictive computer game ever..it was addictive because it was on of the 1st few games out there..
if you really want a good addictive game..just take crack the next time / whenever you use a computer / play a game..and you will find that you will be addicted to any game in no time at all

Why on earth cant ppl follow the most basic forum etiquette and post relevant things. The title of this thread is "Weird/Abstract Games"... It wont be long b4 this ends up in a barret-bashing discussion or a BMF/Camping Carl duel. [xx(]
[edit]
Oh i almost forgot, Polybius is a hoax : http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/hoaxes/roundup.asp

I guess if you play TankWar after taking some acid it might become an abstract experience. I won't encourage it though, maybe the tap water in Macedonia has too much chlorine and M sees somethings we all can't. lol
Btw, Cookie, Polybius MAY not even exist. But if does exist indeed... how I'd like to get it! \m/
As for it being an hoax, if it did in fact exist back in '81, it wouldn't surprise me to see a whole lot of disinformation surrounding the thing ;)

Well, M... coming from you, it might just be abstract, anyway :P
