Over the years,Japan has earned a reputation for producing some of the most bizarre and highly entertaining content on the planet. Thanks to games likeJapan World Cup 3, it’s easy to see why.

Featured Video

Originally released in 2011,Japan World Cupis acomputer-generated Web browser game in which players bet on the outcomes races that feature jockeys riding anything from a Trojan horse to a Yeti. In 2012, these predetermined scenes were compiled into three DVDs (a copy ofJapan World Cup 3can be purchasedfor $34.49 onAmazon).

To say that the racing sequences are absurd would be an understatement. In May 2013, Hightower and AxialMatt of theAchievement Hunter Community Videochannel uploaded a five-minute clip with footage from the third DVD toYouTube. The insanity of the game—which features a horse on its hind legs doing the Charleston as well as a limousine equine with multiple naked jockeys on its back—coupled with the hilarious reaction heard on the voice overs, is a great recipe for laughs.

On Sunday, theclip was unearthed and posted onReddit‘s r/videos, where it has received more than 2,840 karma points and has stayed on the front page of the subreddit.

The redditors’ reactions toJapan World Cup 3 were basically the same ones I had.

“I mean, I accept wtf out of Japan on a daily basis, but this… I don’t even. How tf is this a ‘game’?”asked a baffled fatkiddown.

“Game of the year, all years,”added jinxs2026.

“Get DVD, TV, friends, beer,”suggested Smachface. “Bet sips of beer (for added fun, create and print Horse Bux in MSpaint for throwing and stacking. Have the best night.”

That’s precisely what I’ll be doing this Friday.
