My Girl: The Video Game is a thing, because why not?

For a child star whose celebrity came and went in the blink of an eye, Macaulay Culkin saw his likeness in a surprising number of movie-based video games. Home Alone is pretty much a give in, and 1994’s The Pagemaster saw a home video game adaptation too.

But what about My Girl?

Somehow overlooked, this horribly tragic tale of young love (and SPOILER: death by bees) never got the video game spin-off it so sorely deserved. But now, thanks to the internet, it has.

It’s a short experience, and probably in poor taste, but it made us laugh/cringe an equal amount. If My Girl broke your heart when you were 11, this browser game will let you relive your shock and horror all over again.
