    Lovely and well worth sharing with your family. 0

    Octodad Dadliest Catch is an odd game: Octodad is about an octopus desperately trying to keep it together while he galumphs out the American Dream and be the best father that he can be. Every attempt to accomplish his role within the nuclear family drips with slapstick, pathos and even an unbearably affecting bravery in spots which smartly breaks up the comedy.

    Octodad: Dadliest Catch is a premise you’ve probably experienced many times in videogames before.

    Octodad Rules 0

    I think Octodad is a good game because no one likes a game that's so easy that's why on octodad there is a real challenge and I like challenges.
