## About NotTheNameWeWanted

NotTheNameWeWanted is a 2015 British parody game from developer NotGames. It takes the snake-style vehicle collection mechanic and twists it into a satirical send-up of open-world driving games and British culture, with players collecting achievements while navigating a shonky hand-drawn version of Britain. The game casts players as a trio of recognisable figures, each moving in classic snake fashion across the country's green and pleasant lands. Reviewers highlight the charmingly crude graphics and British cultural satire as the main draws, with players describing it as funny and whimsical in its approach to low-budget indie parody. Those 1379 Steam reviewers awarded it a 90% positive score, cementing its status as a cult comedy hit for short, sharp bursts of satirical gameplay.
