    I've had a craving for some funny games lately, and I've found myself falling short of finding them. So here's a thread for those of you who'd like to share your favorite humor-filled games.
    My personal favorites are those produced by adult swim such as: My Li'l Bastard 5 Minutes to Kill (Yourself).
    A lesser known one (now anyway) that I favor and eagerly await the sequel is Hector: Badge of Carnage. Just check it out. :)

    Everyone else post yours! I need more giggles.

    I thought Towers in Space was a particularly funny game.

    Dogfella (in days of yore):
    Bark Bark Bark.
    There are two types of unknowns- the known unknown & the unknown unknowns.
    There are also the unknown nouns although these are easily learned.
    Bark Bark Bark. Sniff.
    I know you seek to avoid your fated martyrdom but know this:time is a force and it will surely take its course.
    Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark.
    Bark Sniff Bark.
    Sometimes I grow weary of barking all the time but a dog's gotta do what a dog's gotta do what a dog's gotta do do.
    Bark Bark Bark.
    Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark Bark.

    I think the Monkey Island series is also pretty funny as well as City of Secrets. They're the only point and click adventures that I like besides Hector, which was the most boss game. Can't wait for the sequel either. I'd say Puzzle Agent is really good too if you want something funny, short and sweet like Hector, filled with lots of awkward and hilarious moments that are pretty memorable. Can't wait for the sequel to that as well.

    Yeah that's a good one. And you reminded me of Backbreaker Football 1 & 2. Some of the tackles in those games can be funny, if you're the sort of person that laughs at other people's pain and misfortune :D

    Not an acyronym (nor is it free.)

    Makes me laugh though. :D

    In this vein I also love iDrop Dead: Flower Edition

    The first iOS game of the Drop Dead series, on PC 20M+ downloads!

    This is the craziest ragdoll flinging physics puzzle game you'll ever play! Throw around the characters and all the loose items, and cause as much havoc as possible! Sometimes big disasters begin with a single push...

    iDrop Dead takes ragdoll blasting to another level! We've got big and small bombs, ski jumping in the summer, and flying heads! Unlock new worlds, characters, game modes and other features. Contains hidden secrets as well! True sequel to a popular flash game called Drop Dead.

    The game takes advantage of iPod Touch's and iPhone 3GS's fast CPU, and some levels utilize motion sensors.

    * Realistic but cartoony physics
    * You can break the ragdolls and reveal the candy that's inside!
    * 27 hand made levels with multiple goals (total 216)
    * 12 levels from you players
    * Infinite levels from the random level generator!
    * 6 worlds
    * 14 characters
    * 4 game modes
    * 17 types of flowers
    * Contains flashlight!

    As we were pointed to a new, rosy direction, we filled iDrop Dead with all sorts of sweety things and rereleased the game as Flower Edition. Blood and bones are long gone, replaced with everyone's sugariest fantasies! Remember to brush your teeth after you're done.

    SIMILAR GAMES (so if you like these you might love iDrop Dead):

    Ouch!, Ragdoll Blaster, Max Injury

    REVIEWS (iDrop Dead):

    www.appsmile.com: "Overall, iDrop Dead introduces a lot of creativity into this genre." 5/5!

    www.dailyappshow.com: "This game is a blast!"

    www.touchgen.net: "It is truly a great game, and I recommend it fully to anyone who wishes to have some plain old fun." 4/5!

    www.theiphoneappreview.com: "There is too much violence and dismemberment for me."

    This game has a neat backstory like Smnuggle Truck. Some time after iDrop Dead was in the app store, Apple changed the rules for ragdoll games - specifically no blood - and when an update to iDD was submitted, it was rejected because the ragdolls bleed. So... the game got reworked so that the blood particles became flowers, and the bones became pepperment sticks and lollipops and apples. :) IMHO, this made the game even more funny. Best yet is that in the 2nd update you could choose red as a flower color and can choose to increase/decrease the flower size (you can have single-pixel red flowers, or totally spam huge flowers which is nuts!)

    Cow Trouble is a pretty fun(ny) game! Rainbow Pony is funny too mainly because his expression doesn't change during the entire game. Even the icon made me laugh.
