The Worst of Gamescent

With the baffling announcement of the AI video game scent machine: https://twitter.com/geoffkeighley/status/1762496577132974223?s=20
My mind immediately wandered to what the worst possible games to smell throughout their playtimes would be. Suggestions are very welcome

Doom Eternal.
A good chunk of that game takes place on hell earth where everything is a mix of flesh tendrils, blood, guts, and any other unholy bodily fluids. Mix that togather with intense heat from the fires of hell and you either have a really tastey BBQ or one of the most rank smells the universe had ever known.
(Doom 2016 would also work in here but I think the more visceral portrayal in Eternal is a better suit for this list)

Mario Kart/Crash Team Racing/Sonic Racing, there's probably an ungodly burning rubber smell with everybody doing power slides on turns.

Punky Skunk
Farming Simulator
Boogerman (First world is called "Flatulence Swamps" if that says anything)
Rex Ronan Experimental Surgeon, unless you love a big-ass whiff of cigarette breath.
Every wrestling game with Vader in it, because he never washed his tights.
