video game parody

Video game parody is a creative work that humorously imitates or exaggerates elements of a popular game, such as its characters, story, or gameplay mechanics. Its purpose is to entertain by highlighting familiar features in a playful or satirical way, often providing commentary or critique. Parodies can be found in videos, comics, or fan creations, and they typically respect the original source while adding humorous twists. This form of expression engages fans through shared recognition, offering a fresh perspective or humorous critique of the game’s themes or conventions.
