Of all the weird indie games to come out in the last few years, Keita Takahashi's Noby Noby Boy remains one of the all time strangest. More of a toybox than a game, Noby puts players in control of a stretchy worm monster as it consumes the world and ruins everything in a quest to reach the depths of space. It's bizarre, confusing, and I loved it. Hohokum, a new title by Sony Santa Monica and indie developer Honeyslug, looked to be almost a spiritual successor. Like Noby, it's got a simple, abstract art style, no immediately clear objectives, and stars a wormy beast. While pleasant and very relaxing, Hohokum never quite reaches the level of weird achieved by 2009's Noby.
