Titles built solely to be played on live streams and YouTube videos. The last few years have seen the growth of the comedy concept game. The subversive comedy idea game is one genre I can totally get down with and Roombo is so low-priced that it doesn’t feel like too much of an insult to you for giving it a go, but at the end of the day it is still a shallow product.
