★★★★★ Octodad: The Masterpiece
Wed Jun 25 2025 oh im cooooolStarting the game, we’re introduced to Father “Octodad” Octopus seeming very unprofessional on his wedding day. From the beginning, you see Octodad journey through the church, slipping on banana peels and trying not to knock down vases. This shows how Octodad tries to live his life, and he succeeds, but sometimes risks his happiness because of how hard it is to be an octopus. He found a woman named Scarlet who can give him purpose, so he marries her, but there is no best man that has the ring. This adds a mystery aspect on Octodad’s past. Was his family unsupportive of him wanting to make something of himself and escape the sea life, even if he struggles? Or did his family die due to fishermen? You never know, which adds an aspect of not knowing his personality, leaving it open ended for the player to decide why there may be no best man. He gets married and falls from the sky in his dream, and knocks down the credits, which works into his personality of looking down on himself, thinking he’s bringing everybody down. This is just the beginning mission of Young Horses’ magnum opus, so I highly recommend paying fifteen dollars. Fifteen dollars for an experience like no other.
★★★★★ Make more
Sun Mar 22 2020 toca boca3000 appsI had this game once and I was little so I didn’t get the point I deleted the game and just a few months ago I got it again I can’t stop playing the first time I played it took me 6 hours to beat it that I blame on the kelp grow and the jungle gym now I’m a pro I especially love what all the characters say like “Stacy why are your butterfly hair clips all over the yard.” “I was returning them to nature.” After a while I kind of got board of playing the same thing over and over and over again so I started to look for more I found the “shorts” and played both I like that the evil or not so evil anymore chef was cooking at the place and he was saying what he had said on the last thing but that’s what I want to talk about the last thing. In the free play there’s a locked one I’m dying to see what it is this is my first response to you because everything was going great I saw the last update you made was 1 YEAR ago 1 YEAR that’s a really long time I’m beginning to start to wonder is you will make more levels because gee I can’t take it much longer.
★★★★★ Octodad Suggestions
Sun Oct 23 2022 MrsSkeeHello there I am a H U G E fan of this game. It is hilarious and cool. Being and octopus who pretends to be a human being ain’t easy, but it’s fun and challenging enough to wanna play more. It’s very confusing sometimes, with all the puzzles and games you have to complete- especially when you have a curious wife and two kids who go everywhere. From beginning to end, I was hooked, especially with the good bait :) (excuse the pun). I think you should do what I’m about to say: MAKE A SHOW. Just the sequence itself, it’s the best part. You have your own theme song- what are you missing? You should TOTALLY make it a show or a movie of some sort. You have another Octodad game too, just to add on. You could think of plenty of episodes. Oh- and the reason I don’t like the shorts- THEY ARE NOT SHORT. They’re longer than the main game ITSELF. Besides, it’s a kids game so make it for kids. People who are thinking about buying the game- TOTALLY do it. It’s worth it, trust me. I hope you guys think about doing these things, okay? BUH-BYE! ;)
★★★★★ Worth it
Thu Apr 19 2018 NailBufferI’ve played this game multiple times, always completing it. I love this game. the controls are pretty difficult at first, but you get used to it. the “omg its so hard to control!” reviews are dumb tbh, the point is that you are an OCTOPUS, pretending to be a HUMAN. And not having like, human features, and walking on LAND, of course its gonna be somewhat hard. But, you could add more content. Like new special sides, like how he was a doctor or went on a date. But obviously you cant keep on adding more and more, the creators can make more games and they have a life other than accomplishing your wants for new levels. I would be happy for new things in the game, but as I said, they have a life. I rated it 5 stars bc the game itself is amazing! I’m not going to downgrade to 4 just because of the fact that there is not enough content. (I’m not saying there is not enough btw) So thank you for this game!
★★★★★ Love itttt!!!!!
Wed Dec 28 2016 QuinteineI know that it is hard to control, which is why there are some bad reviews. But what's the point of easy controls? The game would be boring. The point of games is to pull us into the game but at the same time have fun. Some reviews are saying that "Omg it's too hard to control" or "omg I'm stressin'" like common now, calm down ITS A GAME. Though I got a bit frustrated, I still had a lot, and I repeat, a lot of fun! But the thing was that it drew my attention to want to play more. It made me love it and it was perfect. I don't know if the purpose was to actually make the controls hard to control, which it PROBABLY WAS, it was still sooooo fun. I RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE BORED AT HOME AND WOULD LOVE SOMETHING TO DISTRACT THEMSELVES WITH. So don't listen to any of the bad reviews. Some all say that it's frustrating and they can't play it. LIKE BOIIIIII 💁🏼 it's a gameeeee, you just honestly succckkk at the game then. This game is perfect.
★★★★★ Amazing game, very addicting and fun!
Thu Nov 12 2020 Jenna MannI absolutely adore this game. It's one of the most creative games I have ever played! It's very funny too, and you don't want to stop playing. If you think it's too hard to control him, just change the settings or practice walking around with him. Some levels seem impossible to beat but when you play a lot and watch game-plays it will be very easy and you will be able to speed through the levels and tasks like lightning. And for anyone who wants to play more, I definitely recommend checking out shorts, which leads me to my suggestion. Can you add more ties around the maps, or can you add more shorts or add on to the main storyline? I think people will want to play it more and it keeps them with more things to do. (P.S, I recommend this game on long car rides with no internet connection!)
★★★★★ READ IF CONSIDER BUYING
Tue Jan 29 2019 alex.hart.This game is sometimes very frustrating but some parts of it are easy. Personally, I think they should take down the price a little to at least $2. I would pretty much suggest it but the controls are kind of... hard to use. I usually just swipe on both sides of Octodad and then I get where I am going. They should probably... add a few or a bunch more levels. I was disappointed when I first completed the whole game, including the extras, like the nurse and the waiter. The reviews that say bad controls are very stupid because your an octopus, not a human. Of course you should be floppy! I also like this game a lot because it’s very funny and the octopuses family doesn’t have a clue that he’s an octopus except for the chef trying to tell them that he is an octopus. Good game. I like it a lot. 👍👍👍
★★★★★ Please help!
Wed Apr 05 2023 AmberMetI was 80% though and so close to getting the ending after two weeks and it crashed in the loading screen and deleted my save! Then I tried again and got to the store and I decided to see if my achievements were there and it froze and when i went back on it it deleted again!?! I can’t do this game anymore if my save will be gone every hour, please fix the servers so I can play and not lose my weeks of progress, also can you make the new game button somewhere where you won’t click on it by accident and then lose your save. R.I.p 1st save file, but please make the servers work again so I can play and not lose my save😭
Also p.s I was at the part after you escape the shark if you can bring me back to it
