I am looking for a game that will make me laugh a lot. I already played Disco Elysium and I am currently playing Stanley's Parable

Portal and Portal 2!

The older Sam and Max games were great.

Been a while, but I thought there were a few that came out back in the day (computer only).

There is one old: Hit the road

Then 3 seasons of Telltale's Sam and Max

And apparently there is a VR title as well…

HITMAN! The core story/cutscenes form a very serious, grim premise. But, the actual gameplay, and the writing of the many dozens of NPCs in each level, is filled with humorous charm and tongue-in-cheek Bond-eque silliness. Characters will acknowledge 47's often paper-thin disguises, make silly remarks about excuses to take off early, or alluding to how horrible it would be if some freak accident occurred. Plus, the mechanics can involve things like dropping banana peels for people to slip on, or luring people with a cartoony explosive rubber duck.

It takes a bit of time to get used to how the game wants you to explore, and stop trying to brute-force it like a stealth game. Quite often, some of the main intended ways of going about a mission involve little to no stealth. It's a lot of fun and very replayable.

Just the other day I saw the bit where the guard gets a phone call telling him it's NOT prostate cancer, and he's all happy and relieved, and you're just out of the window and have to make a tough decision.

The Monkey Island games come to mind. A Bard's Tale maybe?

Esoteric Ebb

It's Disco Elysium, but you're a cleric in D&D in a nutshell.

South Park: The Stick of Truth and its sequel were really funny and the RPG gameplay was a lot more fun than I expected. I’ll also second the recommendation for the Monkey Island series.

The original ace Attorney trilogy is pretty good with humor, some people enjoy the humor in the somnium files, yazuka zero's side content is pretty funny.

Grim Fandango!

Never has a game made me laugh out loud like when I first discovered it. Clever humour, unique characters, and each line of dialogue is packed with effortless charm and wit. Not to mention the philosophical themes disguised as one man's quirky Day of the Dead -themed quest to get to the afterlife.

The puzzles are a product of its time so a walkthrough might be needed. But that's forgivable for the game's big picture.

Wish I could wipe my memory of it and play it all over again.

People (not me), seemed to really like Thank Goodness You're Here. Undertale is a popular one. Date Everything seemed funny from what I saw of it, and if playing with friends things like peak, baby steps, or getting over it. Lots of different genres there, but steam also has a tag for comedy games. Even if you don't end up buying it on steam, you can always check that out in case you don't get enough options via comments.

[-] MurrayL@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Thank Goodness You’re Here is quite possibly the funniest game I’ve ever played - good suggestion.

[-] clav64@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Thank goodness you're here is utterly brilliant. Full of very British humour akin to the Viz comics.

[-] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Seconding "Thank goodnees you're here" and "Date everything"!

[-] nutbutter@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

There Is No Game. It's not very funny, but still pretty funny.

[-] 4am@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

Unmetal is a fun spoof on Metal Gear/MGS games

[-] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

If you're enjoying The Stanley Parable, you'll probably like Do Not Press The Button To Destroy The Multiverse.

[-] clav64@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Have you got the deluxe edition of Stanley parable? It really got me laughing how much it jokes about sequels.

[-] Almacca@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Mitchmanix has a whole channel playing through comedy games.

One of my personal favourites is The Deadly Tower of Monsters.

I haven't got very far into it, but Rustler is a pretty funny top down view GTA spoof.

[-] Tess@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 month ago

West of Loathing and Shadows over Loathing are two really funny and silly games.

[-] faintwhenfree@lemmus.org 0 points 1 month ago

Deadpool the game is super funny if you can get it. There is no legal way to get it.

[-] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Damm, if there's no legal way I can't play it.. Just impossible...
