Growing up I thought this game was hard because the youtubers i watched struggled hard while playing. Turns out that they are just incredibly dumb. Peak game though.

Despite how young my account is and my ownership of this game, this is one of THE first games i have ever played on steam. I remember playing this on a very old laptop, (back near 10 or so years ago)and it was quite difficult to play without a mouse. But for little ol kid me, this was incredible, for present me... it's still one of the best out there. A diamond in the rough. Incredibly fun to speedrun, Even more fun to Struggle Play with friends! And a classic theme song: OCTODAAAAaaaaaaaD NOBODY SUSPECTS A THING!

I remember this game as a free demo made by students as some kind of assignment. And since then she has become much prettier. A clear and interesting plot has appeared, the controls have become more responsive, the graphics and physics are also pleasing to the eye. In this game, you control an octopus that disguises itself as a human. Alternately control the tentacles that serve as his arms and legs, performing various tests and tasks. And if an ordinary person does not even have to strain himself for some things, then in most cases the octopus will have to sweat a lot. A trip to the store or a picnic on the lawn behind the house becomes a real adventure. As the main advantage of this game, I would note the pleasant humor. He is not stupid, he fills every minute of the game, every square meter of locations. And its most important drawback is its short duration. The game is played in one go, probably in a couple of hours. But it will be a very good watch that you will not regret. In general, the verdict is to wait for the

I don't know how the hell I squeezed out 117 hours of gameplay out of a linear 2 hour game, but screw it. Octodad is a truly touching game. Buy it now!
