Eurojank refers to a specific category of video games, typically RPGs or shooters, developed by Central and Eastern European studios like Piranha Bytes or GSC Game World. Known for being overly ambitious yet technically unpolished, these games—such as Gothic, S.T.A.L.K.E.R., and ELEX—frequently feature game-breaking bugs, stiff animations, and brutal difficulty. The meme emerged as a way for the PC gaming community to celebrate the 'soul' and depth of these titles, arguing that their unique atmosphere and complex systems outweigh their lack of triple-A polish. Usage typically involves comparing a bug-free but boring mainstream game to a broken but brilliant Eurojank masterpiece, cementing the term as both a critique and a badge of honor for niche gaming enthusiasts.
