It's a series of fun, random pixelated scenarios where you have to prevent disasters. By doing completely random things that have completely random outcomes. It's a very simple game, but it's supposed to be this way. You win by trial and error usually, as it almost never makes sense... but that's the fun of it. You get to see all the completely nonsensical interactions that go on.

A classic, short but very enjoyable point & click game. Don't be mistaken by it's first impression, it doesn't rely on "LOL Random" humour as much you may think which make it interesting when the solution is actually very logical within game world. On the side note, the game is REALLY wacky so some folks may not necesarily enjoy the jokes, so keep that in mind.. Regardless, it's a 10/10 game in terms of execution. If you seek to play something silly, this may take your interest.

Ok....hear me out. If you catch this thing on sale, buy it. It reminds me of the Wario Ware games only waaaaaaay more fart and wiener jokes. I got it in a bundle with #3 (there is no #2 so don't bother looking). Mindless fun. Immature gags. Buy this. Buy this now.

McPixel is an absurdist comedy Point n' Click, which exudes early internet humor, alla Newgrounds. Developed by Sos Sosowski, all the way back in 2012, the game became an instant hit for Let's Players on Youtube at the time. With one glance at its content, it is easy to see why. Returning to it now, as an adult, I realize that the game isn't simply Youtube bait, and is actually a competently made Point n' Click game, featuring a ton of content for its low 4 Euro asking price. Sos Sosowski does an incredible job at creating new and funny scenarios, with only very few repeats. Every element is absurd in some way and many had me chuckling out of sheer confusion. McPixel is a game that expertly navigates the tricky world of absurdism and exhibits a deep understanding for the ancient art, as well as early internet humor and pop culture references. While its lack of achievements brings a pang of sadness to the completionist within me, I still did everything the game's main campaign had to offer, simply out of a sense of personal interest, of wanting to see more of the titular characters wacky antics and perplexing attempts at saving the day. While some sections were funnier than others and more well-designed than others, nothing managed to outstay its welcome in the game's brief, but well-spent run time of about two hours. I wholeheartedly recommend it, especially since there is a ton of content I myself didn't play, in the game's "Free DLC" section and "Endless Mode", which extends the game time and humor probably by a good few hours. Conclusion While my inner critic, who takes himself way too seriously, wants to write this game off as nothing more than "random = funny" humor, along with some gross-out moments, my inner child smacks some sense into him, making me understand that what McPixel does is in many ways masterful and surprisingly artistic, as well as simply funny (and also, bodily fluids can be funny too – sue me). Many Thanks To Sos Sosowski For Bringing Laughter To This World!

Bought this game because of the eskimo lady with big booba and not only it delivered me that but also gave me a lot of amusing non-sensical situations. The game is short, however, so only buy it if you're in the mood for some craziness or if you're a fan of pixelated nudity .
