The Obscure Game Theatre is a channel run by YouTube user Frankomatic that is dedicated to Let's Plays of older games. Although the title of the channel includes the word 'Obscure', unknown games aren't the only focus as the occasional more well-known game or game series sneaks itself in as well. Almost all genres of games have been touched with the exception of Flight Simulations. Though Frankomatic has let it be known that he is a particular fan of Adventure Games, he is currently taking a break from them after completing a run of a large chunk of the King's Quest series. | |

Tempting Fate | |
Obscure Game Theatre (Lets Play) / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: Mentioned during the Let's Fail of Hercules on the C64. Fate takes a little while to respond. It also probably wasn't the best idea to mention that Moonstone has random lockups early on in the run of the game, either. | |

Angrish: A recurring theme in of the OGT. Particularly in a number of the more sadistic titles, such as the Adventures of Rad Gravity, Air Fortress, Amagon, the Lone Ranger, and Space Ace. | |

Cluster F-Bomb | |
Obscure Game Theatre (Lets Play) / int_35a858b3 | comment |
Cluster F-Bomb: During one particularly tough quest in the second Legacy of Goku game, he is forced to protect a mother dinosaur's eggs that are blocking a generator he needs to destroy. What makes this really difficult is he can't fight back while carrying an egg and the second an enemy attacks him it'll break, which forces him to repeat it several times. After he finally delivers all the eggs to safety, the dinosaur doesn't even give thanks for protecting her eggs and instead chews him out for making her move, which sets him off a short yet brutal tirade as he tears apart any enemy unfortunate enough to stand in his way. | |

Obscure Game Theatre (Lets Play) / int_40bb59d0 | comment |
Blatant Lies: The into video on his youtube channel's main joke is stating a "feature" of his videos, and then cutting to clips of him doing the exact opposite (e.g. "Flawless Gameplay!" cue him walking into a game's version of Goombas.) | |

Obscure Game Theatre (Lets Play) / int_4da6ac | comment |
Rated M for Manly: Ducking spears, dodging boulders, leaping over spiders, crocs and snakes, swimming with piranha and crossing broken rope bridges? It must be the Aztec Challenge! Add killer flamingos (that're full of grenades) and you'll have Rambo for the NES. | |

Obscure Game Theatre (Lets Play) / int_5e7163c9 | comment |
Alternative Character Interpretation: Done in-universe in one death scene in Brain Dead 13, when Frankomatic sees Fritz in a different light when he plants a calla lily on Lance's grave (in spite of the fact that he did this to mock Lance's dead body): | |

Malevolent Architecture | |
Obscure Game Theatre (Lets Play) / int_7eaf99d | comment |
Malevolent Architecture: Evident in many entries of the Obscure Game Theatre, however none more prevalent than in the King's Quest Series; where in a world filled with malevolent dragons, witches, and trolls; stairs, walkways and bridges are the leading causes of death. | |

Obscure Game Theatre (Lets Play) / int_a7325f9e | comment |
The Many Deaths of You: The myriad of death scenes within the King's Quest Series, Space Ace, Dragon's Lair and Brain Dead 13 are enough to warrant their own end credit. Also provides numerous examples of Yet Another Stupid Death and Have a Nice Death. | |
