Look at that thing. Just look at it!

If you've been on the internet for more than a few minutes lately, you won't be surprised to see this disaster of a game on the list. The King Kong IP may be a media titan, but this game proves that the bigger they are, the harder they fall.

Skull Island: Rise of Kong is an action-adventure game that tells the origin story of the legendary King Kong. However it treats the character with all the prestige of a cheap mascot at a kid's birthday party.

The visuals are diabolical and would look terrible even if the game came out a decade ago. Additionally, it's a buggy mess full of tedious gameplay, awful animations, and cutscenes riddled with technical errors.

Overall, the game is a legitimate embarrassment, and anyone who paid money for it must feel like climbing the Empire State building in a rage right now.

Sadly, like Gollum, this was another game plagued with a monstrous production. As per The Verge, the game's publishers, GameMill Entertainment, forced the developers into a one year turnaround.

Even the strongest team would struggle to crank out a good game in that time frame, so pour one out for the poor staff at IguanaBee Studios!
