Japanese niche game where the player controls a mosquito that must feed on a human family without getting caught. The absurd concept and offbeat humour are delightfully Japanese. Hard to recommend to Western audiences but endearing for fans of atypical game experiences.

Description
North American edition of SCEI and Zoom released in 2002, distributed as "Mister Mosquito." Players take on a mosquito that must drain blood from a Japanese family without being noticed, in exquisite domestic scenes (bath, dinner, nap). An intensely Japanese concept, a video-game UFO on Western PS2.

Collector interest

Mister Mosquito is an offbeat Eidos title casting the player as a mosquito infiltrating a Japanese household: its quirky humor and singular gameplay make it a cult curiosity on PS2. The American NTSC version, modestly printed and never reissued, sees complete and sealed pricing climb among fans of eccentric games. Demand rests on its originality and retail scarcity, not on a mere sealed-market effect.
