Constructed on isometric projections, Echochrome is a Playstation title in which the player has to refer to perceived/optical geometry rather than actual geometry.

In essence you must direct a mannequin through different Oscar Reutersvärd‘s impossible constructions. The game’s interface is driven by Jun Fujiki’s Object Locative Environment Coordinate System, which ties character movement to the orientation of the camera.

Cataloguable as a puzzle game, Echochrome is, rather, an experimental ground for testing the way we mentally disassemble ordinary laws of geometry, physics and perception, and reconstite a virtual order around optical illusions, while entertaining on a funny -proper- game.

Here’s the official trailer:

The Artist is Present is a Sierra-style literal recreation of the famed performance piece of the same name by artist Marina Abramovic at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

Obviously an experiment, rather than a real fun game, the game presents a perfect reproduction of the Moma during the artist performance. Read more about it here.

The guys of the italian graphic design and illustration office H-57 like to propose their version of the history of famous people, like Michael Jackson, Darth Vader and Adolf Hitler, in form of pictograms.

“If I had not gone into Monty Python, I probably would have stuck to my original plan to graduate and become a chartered accountant, perhaps a barrister lawyer, and gotten a nice house in the suburbs, with a nice wife and kids, and gotten a country club membership, and then I would have killed myself.”

-John Cleese, 1997
