10 Hilarious Indie Games That Nail Comedy
Throughout life, taking a break and having a nice laugh is great, so here are our favorite indie games that absolutely nail comedy.
One of the characters on the wackier side of things is Timothy Timepiece, a cat-shaped clock in the player’s home. The clock can be found in either the player’s bedroom or on the wall in the kitchen.
Timothy’s speech isn’t the only thing cat-like, with his “nya’s” and the occasional cat pun. Timothy also carries a deep secret if players approach him outside of the scheduled time period. Not following Timothy’s schedule introduces you to his alter-ego, Timmy.
Speaking to both Timothy and Timmy is the only way to acquire all collectibles in a single playthrough, but there’s an artfulness to getting all three collectibles and not being locked into the hate ending.
Tick. Tock. When To Talk To Timothy.
Since Timothy is a real stickler for timing, to progress his route you’ll need to approach him at a specific time. The hints provided by the Date-A-Dex can help, but when juggling between Timothy and Timmy, sometimes the wordy hints become a bit daunting.
Each conversation with Timothy requires a specific time to approach him. If you approach at any other time, you’ll end up talking to Timmy. This can help without giving the player the exact parameters to get a specific ending.

As you approach Timmy to see what manner of creature he was hunting, you have a sudden realization…
Wow, look at the big hunter… you massacred that yarn.
All the things on the shelf that fall when Timmy knocks them over? Timmy’s.
Look out lions-there’s a new king of the jungle.

Pocket watches are like hearts in that way.
They have to be regularly maintained?
My watches here are all mechanical. I have no quarrel with quartz…
Give him a laugh.
It’s preposterous, really!
So you’re saying I should be high-maintenance?
When you make the rules around interacting with you complex and difficult, only those worth bothering will be able to adhere to them.
Aha! I’ll keep that in mind!
Gently, please…
Set it down by the other watches.
I hope you have gotten something from these little chats of ours?
