It could even be a youtube video or movie that you don't think anyone reading this has heard of besides you.

Movies:

  • Kubo and the Two Strings. Some of the story elements are a bit too obvious, but the overall story is charming and the art style (stop motion with puppet-like characters) is just plain cool.

  • Kirikou and the Sorceress. Wonderfully weird with an interesting story

  • Triplets of Belleville. The entire movie is "told" without words, except for a single sentence right at the start and one right at the end.

Games:

  • Terranigma (SNES). Main characters revives / creates an entire world that was doomed ages ago. It's kind of bittersweet when you're done reviving the continents, plants and animals and then the humans start f*cking stuff up. Great music and visuals too, despite being 16-Bit style

  • Ōkami. One of my all-time favorites but due to minimal marketing, not many people are aware that this game even exists. Charming art style and interesting gameplay concept.

    Kubo was a BAFTA winner and Okami was IGNs game of the year winner. The rest I agree with, but those two seem really popular for an "unheard of" list.

    Maybe it's a regional thing then...? I'm in Germany and noone I know of has heard about either one. I wouldn't be surprised tho if those two got the attention they deserve in other parts of the world.

    Okami was really fun. I will say that going back to play it now the NPC talking sound the murmuring gets really old fast. I still enjoyed everything else.
