you're just an octopus trying to live his life but society won't let you. Drop a plate? Jail. Struggle to put on your pants? Jail. Can't even throw shit at my kids without the FBI showing up.

I don't know what everyone else is talking about. I played as a fully normal man. He did everyday things. That chef was insane and blind. What octo-thing was he talking about? 10/10. Great dad simulator.

Short, sweet, and charming, Octodad: Dadliest Catch is a good game to sit down and play with. The story is simple and short, being 3 hours at the most. The gameplay is just you doing relatively tasks as a very normal human, but the controls are hard and you're very floppy for some reason.
The game is made to be played repeatedly, especially for achievement hunters. So try to do some things differently in your next playthroughs as the game has a little bit of replayability.

This game could be easily one of my favorites, if not my favorite indie game ever.
Back when I was a child, I used to watch gameplays of this game and always wanted to try it.
Well, after more than a decade of waiting, I finally played and finished it 100%, and yeah, child me was right; this game rocks.

The first game I played with my now-wife.
Surprisingly, we got through it without destroying our relationship.
OCTODAD is a silly slapstick comedy adventure that unexpectedly turns into a heartfelt story about family and love—disguised as a rage-inducing, physics-based action game.
The gameplay is hilarious, especially in co-op, as it’s intentionally difficult and delightfully wonky.

Funny physics game. All around a pleasant, charming, enjoyable game. You may get frustrated with the controls, because of the imprecise controls, but that's the whole gimmick of the game. Buy this on sale and play it! It's funny and whacky! This octopus is the master of disguise. Fuck outta here Dana Carvey.
