Screenshot: Knuckle Creek Sometimes an indie game comes out of nowhere and is so unexpectedly fun, you have to tell people about it. I guess it's not fair to judge a book by its cover–or a game by its key art–but something about Knuckle Creek made it look like it would be disappointing. I was so, so wrong.
