There are weird games, and then there's Judero: a delectably Scottish adventure made out of action figures and Harryhausenesque claymation where you fight faeries, lizards, and Englishmen

Judero, an action figure claymation druid man with an orange beard and staff, contemplates nature.

I already dug the demo for Judero, a new action adventure game from developer duo Talah Kaya and Jack King-Spooner, but the full game is managing to surpass my expectations: Judero is weird, and it is well-worth your time.

The art style is the immediate hook, making use of modified action figures and handcrafted clay models digitized into sprites, a distinctly '90s sort of rendering reminiscent of Doom or Fallout 1's Talking Heads. The cutscenes, meanwhile, are full-on stop motion animation, with Spooner's unsettling clay sculptures reminding me of Ray Harryhausen or Phil Tippett's work.
