Steam is no stranger to bizarre indie titles, and the latest to capture attention is A Story About Farting—a strange, humorous clicker game that has exploded in popularity. Developed by Lizard Games Studio, the title is currently free to claim until June 2, giving players the perfect excuse to embrace the absurd.
Released in April 2024, A Story About Farting offers a simple premise: click endlessly to make characters fart or belch. As basic as it sounds, this offbeat gameplay has drawn over 300,000 players on Steam, proving that sometimes the weirdest games generate the biggest buzz.
At least it wasn’t made by TinyBuild—this is exactly the kind of game their collective IQ would fall in love with. But no, this gem comes from Lizard Games Studio, and somehow manages to be both ridiculous and strangely addictive.
The main character, Fatty, is joined by others like Fat Granny and Mustachioed Pig. Each click results in a bodily noise, and progression is tied to earning achievements—almost 100 in total. It’s the kind of game that doesn’t take itself seriously, lasting only 2–4 hours, yet still managing to hook players in with its goofy charm.
This success story follows a growing trend on Steam. In 2024, Banana stunned the platform by peaking at over 900,000 concurrent players, while older hits like Cookie Clicker continue to have cult followings. These quirky clickers seem to thrive by offering easy-to-digest, oddly satisfying gameplay that encourages short but engaging sessions.
Lizard Games Studio has announced future plans for A Story About Farting, including free DLC, gameplay upgrades, and even a potential sequel or spin-off set in the same universe.
For those seeking a different kind of experience, another limited-time freebie is available: Tell Me Why is free to claim on Steam until July 1, offering a deeper narrative-driven adventure.
Meanwhile, Steam’s big seasonal event, Next Fest, is just around the corner. Running from June 9 to June 16, it will showcase dozens of playable demos for upcoming titles.
So whether you’re into fart jokes or emotional storytelling, Steam has something free for everyone right now.
