Anyone Remember Spud!(1996)?

I was looking through the adventure game section of the Steam store and I came across Spud!, an adventure game from 1996. This was one of the weirdest adventure game's I've ever played! It frames itself as a kid's game with a Christmas theme and child protagonist, but that couldn't be farther from the truth! Violence, reindeer nudity, and more, this game was certainly a trip going in blind! I feel like it's a game that should've been one of those cult classics just due to how bonkers it is in parts. The puzzles are pretty simple, but it works. The main problem is how juvenile the game is, especially with the insensitive jokes and offensive stereotypes that are in parts, and I guess that could be a reason for it being forgotten to time. Does anyone else remember this game?
If you want a video to see it in action, I made a review showing the most interesting parts:

Grim


Frodo

I remember this game.  Loved it, back in the day.  :grin:

There was also a sequel - The Quivering.  Also, very funny game.  :cheesy:
