Kentucky Route Zero would probably classify as obscure. It's not really a game, to be honest, more of a point-and-click exploration visual novel.

What do I like so much about the game and what makes it unique? Well, I personally love games that are immersive and make me feel the experience. And this particular game is probably the closest out there in terms of making you feel like you are in a dream. It's a very weird concept, I know, but it is the only way I can describe it.

The story itself starts with a man named Conway, who is driving a delivery for Lisette's Antiques - the last one, as the store will close forever soon. As he asks a gas station attendant for the way, he is directed to Kentucky highway zero. This road is unlike a regular road, as it goes through the caves underneath the surface, and navigating it is another matter entirely. On his way, he meets several strange people.

The story is about being lost, loss, debt, and camaraderie. How it goes is mostly set in stone, but you do influence some of the world around you as the player. I think most gamers are probably interested in obscure mechanics rather than stories, and this game lacks actual "game" mechanics. So it is certainly not for everyone. However, it is among my favourites in terms of story/experience, and I'm not the only one that enjoys it.
