    I loved Octodad’s premise right when I heard about it, and I’m glad to finally have the chance to play it. The Wii U version doesn’t run at 100%, but It’s already sold me on any projects Young Horses works on in the future. I just hope it comes to a Nintendo platform sooner.

    Octodad: Dadliest Catch is packed with great humor and guarantees a lot of absurd fun.

    While the port is not the best, the balancing act on eight legs is as much of a fun romp as it was in its premiere.

    As a game, Octodad seems less interested in entertaining and is more intent on taking the player through a journey, and by its own design can be an incredibly stressful affair.

    The dialogues are full of humour and the character's animations are very well executed. Octodad mostly disappoints in its short length and players who feel put off by difficult controls will not appreciate its mechanics.
