It looks like one of those Miniclip flash games from about five years ago.

It was released in 2007.

By any standard this one doesn't deserve any amount of money.

Steam is letting a lot of shovelware in for the past year but this, this cannot even classified as such.

I don't recommend watching the trailer. For fear you might see the whole game.

Worst game ever? Not even close. From what I've heard that 'honour' belongs to this atrocity from the 90s-

there are ways around most things like this, if you replace the ' with %27 it should work as in:

I loved the video on that page, had me in stitches with laughter.

The Angry Video Game Nerd would beg to differ :twisted:

He has an insanely funny series on the worst games of all time (most from the 80s/90s).

I made a thread on the Elite forum about what is regarded as the worst game ever made. I thought it was Penn & Teller's (yes, the magic dudes) Bus Simulator, where you drive down a perfectly straight road for eight hours, in real time.

Then someone posted about a hooverbot simulator, but that was beaten by a lawnmower simulator that had graphics comparable to ZX Spectrum.

The Penn & Teller game was supposed to be like that.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing yet in this thread.

Another to add to this list. Steam pulled this one from early access.

Best review:

"This game is amazing and truly "Has It All": graphics, sounds, images, keyboard buttons that sometimes do things, little tiny people who aren't real and don't look real but you can pretend that they are (some are good, some are evil), and much much more. You are a dude with a knife who must stop a gigantic drug cartel from making more drugs! But how can you do that? Well you stab many people until they all die. Then you will have bested the drug war and come out a hero. "Winners do not use drugs" - George H. W. Bush Jr."

That's actually a great review. Posting that together with the trailer on some gaming sites could easily increase the amount of players by a few hundred percent.
