OBUNGA The Game
Memes used to be random internet jokes that popped up occasionally but now they're a dominant part of online culture leading to games like Obunga The Game. In case you're not familiar with all the memes, the website 4chan contributes a lot of unusual and seemingly nonsensical memes to the internet some of which end up becoming widespread. One of them is a distorted picture of former US President Barack Obama shown with an elongated face and enlarged eyes that people began to refer to as "Obunga". Someone took this image and made a horror game around it.
About Obunga The Game
Some memes are relatively easy to explain or can be understood the moment you see them while others need some more context. This meme in this kind of game may confuse the average person. The image of Obunga is one you don't expect to see on a daily basis, putting it on a similar level to "Big Chungus" which is just an image of round and portly Bugs Bunny. It's unclear whether Obunga was made for the purpose of scaring people or it was just a random distorted picture someone decided to share. Either way, the idea of a meme chasing you in a dark and foggy house would scare many.
How to Play
Obunga The Game is a 3D first-person horror game about looking for items using the mouse and keyboard.
Controls
- Cursor/Arrow Keys - Look
- Left Mouse Button - Interact

The goal of each level or area is to find the designated items and then escape. If Obunga catches you at any point, you'll need to restart.
This is more of a scavenger hunt where you need to thoroughly explore each part of the current area to find the objects that you need. You have no way to defend yourself so you must rely solely on movement and navigation. Obunga is the only obstacle that you'll face during your adventure and he will always be roaming around the map. If he detects you, he'll start chasing you which means you need to constantly be vigilant.
Tips and Tricks
Sound is extremely important in terms of listening and knowing how much you're making. You need to listen for Obunga and if he seems near, you should adjust your movement to be quieter while always having a clear route in mind if he decides to pursue you. Always keep track of areas you've been to so that you don't waste time.
