STG presented entirely in an alien script with no analogue to any written human language. No transliteration here, and the number(?) system on display doesn't follow any base systems.
Non-game/art game by Epyx. No instructions and the game's mechanics change whenever you play.
Even ignoring the sheer crudeness of its premise, how anyone could find ladies swallowing cum that rains down from a building without any sexual contact between parties sexy is beyond me.
Textless entry in the Clutter series, uses icons for everything and doesn't explain its mechanics. It's neat!
Slave rebellion strategy game by an Afro-Caribbean developer set in Martinique. Made in 1988.
