Hylics

A surreal turn-based RPG with a hand-made, claymation-like look and a strange, abstract world. You explore, fight in turn-based battles and sail between places in a weird, dreamlike adventure. The game is short and driven by atmosphere and style more than traditional role-playing depth. Is it your kind of game?
