When simple tasks is a real challenge

Octodad will test you in many ways especially patience. The jokes are surprisingly clever with the levels being very interesting. Octodad instantly steals the show from the beginning to never ever let it go. The game will take you a few hours. I can promise you it's well worth your effort. It's a challenge that keeps you going.

A Fun But Frustrating Game

Octodad provided one of the most interesting experience when it came to games, being a boneless ragdoll. This game was a fun little concept that I've never seen or played with an adorable story added in to keep you going. The world, if I had to explain it, was like an episode of Jimmy Neutron except without the boy genius or inventions and you play the clutsy dad. You play an octopus which you have to stretch your arms and legs haphazardly without humans and your family noticing anything odd about you. The main game was short but you also get to play a couple of short games to add more game time into it. It's a nice game with little to no intensity or rush, just a chill game you can play instead of heavy competitive games online. Would suggest waiting till it comes out on discount before purchasing but well worth a try. I also suggest that before you purchase that you have a controller as trying to do this with keyboard and mouse would be pure hell. Pros: - Interesting gameplay and cute characters - Comedic moments - Does have extra content Cons: - A bit short for asking price, can complete the main story and short stories in 4.5 hours - Wish there was more challenges in the game - Can be frustrating but that's part of the fun Enjoy!!
