This is an RPS public service announcement. Please stay indoors and boot up Steam. Octodad: Dadliest Catch, the immortal story of a struggling father and loving husband, is 79p on Steam. That’s 99 cents for all you United Statesians. And 92 centimes for our European reader.* Octodad is a literary masterpiece in regards to the emotional turmoil of dwelling far out of your true residence. A Steinbeckian fable about hiding a devastating secret from those you’re keen on, and attempting your hardest to take care of the straightforward lifetime of a caring household man when pursued by those that would search their very own achievement within the destruction of your happiness. Also, you’re an octopus.
Okay, so it falls neatly into the style of “joke game told so well I don’t even need to buy it to laugh”. But 79p! For that, you’ll be able to pay these good individuals for the joke. Nathan did our Octodad review and he mentioned it “wears out its rather gimmicky welcome quickly, despite the clear amount of love and detail packed into each of its environments”. But Nathan isn’t right here anymore, and I’m. Octodad is nice. Flailing round and attempting to stroll down the aisle to your wedding ceremony is a enjoyable factor to do. For 79p, it’s a nugget of comedian gold.
You’ll additionally presumably get the Octodad Shorts, the free DLC the creators added back in 2014. Those tales of cephalopod clumsiness see the common-or-garden da reliving his first date together with his now-wife, together with a fantasy wherein he’s a nurse on the native hospital.
Other good reminiscences of Octodad together with former RPS-person Pip Warr lastly reaching the highest of an escalator. Like so.
Anyway, sure. Go purchase that now please. Okay, bye.
*Ca va, Michel?
