Cardboard Computer's surreal episodic point-and-click series Kentucky Route Zero began all the way back in 2013, and only this past January was its fifth and final act released to fans, placing a jaw-dropping capper on one of the most unique video game experiences of the last decade.

The game follows a truck driver named Conway as he attempts to make a delivery, sending him on a path across Kentucky's Route Zero which is, well, quite unlike anything else you've ever seen in a game.

Spoiling what it has in store would be criminal, but it's plainly evident that the game's creators were deeply inspired by the works of David Lynch, opting for a disarmingly surreal, ambiguous approach to storytelling that's wide-open to interpretation.

With incredible diversity across its five short volumes, it's a visually stunning and constantly surprising adventure that's sure to embed itself deep in players' brains forever more.
