Chibi-Robo
I love 3D platformers and Chibi - Robo is the only one that focuses as much on story as it does on exploration.
It is full of absurdness and campiness and, at the same time, tells a touching story of a problematic household. The dad is unemployed and watches super Sentai all day long, the mom is on the verge of divorcing him and they fight constantly, and their little daughter, affected by this situation, refuses to speak and only croaks like a frog.
The graphics are great but what really shines is the sound design. Every movement your little robot makes produces a different sound. The music is phenomenal and "Teriyaki Blues" is a treat.
Pity the game isn't well-known and also very expensive.
