The Chef is the only one who sees Octodad for what he really is. But that nice little idea doesn’t fully translate to a fun game for the player – frustration sets in rather fast when you’re picking up the wrong items, knocking things over that you didn’t mean to and simply walking in the wrong direction due to the clunky movement controls. I get that this is perhaps the game’s charm – yes, the tasks you need to do range from the trivial to the mundane, from mowing a lawn to making coffee, but the fact that Octodad is an octopus (shock horror), things are always going to be more difficult for him.

While walking, you need to use the left stick to circle each leg around each other, which leads to you getting accidentally caught on inanimate objects as you try to walk a straight line. Comedy is great throughout, and you can tell this clumsiness is meant to be a part of it. I get what they were trying to do – you move each standing limb individually by using the left and right triggers and then move one of Octodad’s remaining eight arms to grab and throw items. The issue though is that the movement system, which is really supposed to be the game’s unique selling point, is just so clunky and obtuse. ![]() It’s a jolly fun plot, helped along by some neat and clean visuals – though, given the game’s age, it wouldn’t have been tough for the Wii to power.Įven from 0.5 yards, Scarlett doesn’t realise her husband is an octopus.
