I’m looking for strange/interesting/obscure PC games. Could be anything from Windows, DOS, Mac OS (old school), PC-98, Amiga, or whatever else I’m missing there. Let’s hear ‘em!

My sisters and I played a fair number of random DOS games growing up. Probably the weirdest one that I had a lot of fun playing was Pickle Wars. I don't think it is particularly impressive in hindsight, but I had a great time with it when I was younger. We also dumped a lot of hours into Blake Stone and Zoombinis. I think one of my sisters revisited Zoombinis in college and actually finished the game.

I really appreciate this question because while searching for links, I've found a lot of emulators for old Classics that defined my childhood. Now I know what I'm spending my weekend on...
