Occasionally, a game emerges that stands out as a black sheep within its parent company for various reasons. It could be a passion project that doesn’t align with current trends, a legacy IP that lacks direction from its owners, or even a decent game that has fallen out of favor with the public. Video games are complex endeavors that only see the light of day in a functional state due to a blend of talent, determination, and sheer luck, with the latter often leading to precarious situations.

Despite the challenges, there are several examples of games that are exceptional, beloved, and represent their genre well, despite posing significant challenges for those involved in their marketing.

Host Jim Trinca will reveal the answer in this episode of The Best Games Ever Podcast, a show cherished by all, including its parent company and associated stakeholders.
