### 4/5 — Así Así

*2025-12-23, version 1.0.37*

So it’s very fun/funny love playing it. But TBH it’s kinda boring so it needs updates and more episodes please 
Hope you can think about this 
Kind regards 
Merry crimbo

### 3/5 — Ish.

*2025-09-27, version 1.0.37*

Well, it’s kind of good but, the controls are way too hard. Just like the levels, I had to skip three because they were too hard. And I don’t know how you expect us to climb up a ladder with those controls, maybe make an easy way to move.

### 4/5 — T

*2025-07-11, version 1.0.37*

### 3/5 — It’s a generally good game, but……..

*2025-06-27, version 1.0.37*

Look it’s a good game. It has good art styles. It has good mechanics but what I don’t understand is I also played the original and it’s pretty much the same. I mean I haven’t done the whole game yet but it’s just like the same. There’s nothing more to say.

### 3/5 — Ok never Again that is hard

*2025-06-22, version 1.0.37*

It took me rageing moments to complete that

### 3/5 — it’s good but co-op?

*2025-06-08, version 1.0.37*

the game is fun and the mobile controls are easy to control. When you open the game it has a co-op options, however every time i try to set this up it does not work

### 5/5 — Hold up

*2025-02-21, version 1.0.37*

I mean yeah I like it but plz make it easier for you to control him like literally I can’t get past the deep sea! Plz then it would be perfect.

### 5/5 — Nobody suspects a thing🐙

*2025-02-03, version 1.0.37*

I love the game so much! The first time I played it I really loved it! Even if the graphics aren’t great it’s still a really fun game! Keep up the good work devs! BIGMAC out!👌🏼

### 4/5 — Good but why

*2025-01-12*

I swear this is the most frustrating game ever it’s fun but I hate the part with the escalators when your with Stacy is honestly the most a kind of like lose your mind kind I it took me forever to complete it so if anyone else says something like this then I agree and hope you agree

### 5/5 — HILARIOUS

*2025-01-06, version 1.0.37*

I LOVE THIS GAME IT IS SOOO FUNNY AND SO ARE OCTOPUSES I LIKE HOW ONLY THE CHEF KNOWS HE'S AN OCTOPUS AND HE MARRIED A HUMAN HOW CAN SHE UNDERSTAND HIS BLUBBLES AND BLUBS I DON'T KNOW BUT IT IS STILL SOOOO FUNNY AND SOMEHOW HE HAS KIDS HOW ARE THEY NOT HALF OCTOPUS WELL ANYWAY SOO FUNNY LOVE LOVE LOVE 😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🐙🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️‼️

### 3/5 — …

*2024-12-31, version 1.0.37*

It is ok 👌

### 3/5 — Ok

*2024-12-29, version 1.0.37*

Ok, I like the idea and funny to play…. But seriously…… ONLY 12 LEVLES!!!!!!!!! Make more! Fun and also stressful but 12 levels. Come on guys.

### 5/5 — MORE, MORE, MORE!

*2024-12-13, version 1.0.37*

This game is so fun and funny! The last level is the hardest level, I can’t finish it. I like how the chef shows up in almost all the levels. THERE HAS TO BE A OCTODAD TWO! Or at least add more levels, or shorts.

### 5/5 — Good, could be better though…

*2024-12-01*

Octodad is an addictive game, but also an annoying one. The leg mechanics aren’t that good, and I felt that the story lacked feeling. But, the overall playing of the game was great, it was just these things.

### 4/5 — Good but 1 thing…

*2024-12-01, version 1.0.37*

I really, really like the game but in real life squids and octopi can grip on to things but in the game u can’t do that so it is hard to get up the ladders and stairs and now I am stuck and I am finding it difficult to move on. In my opinion I would suggest adding a climb button to the game? If u do, that would be a real help. Otherwise I rate this a 5/5 stars and awesome game!!

### 1/5 — Boring needs updates kind of fun hard to control

*2025-12-02, version 1.0.37*

This really needs updates on the controlling because on this level where there’s this evil chef, yeah you got it that’s right the evil chef when I control it when the evil chef is trying to get me all the controlling does is run on the table run on the table run on the table then I swipe and then hand mode leg mode, hand mode, leg mode, hand mode leg mode and then all the controlling does is make me get caught or fall on the fire. And also thanks for the bad controlling game😤🤬 and also it’s super boring😪😴

### 1/5 — One of the worlds hardest games

*2025-01-04, version 1.0.37*

The finale is hard make it easier

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-07-23, version 1.0.36*

When I try to get the sushi in the grocery store it’s so  bad the legs are are stupid and useless at that part

### 1/5 — Would you mind fixing the stickiness of your foot?

*2023-07-01, version 1.0.36*

It’s way too difficult to walk because of the stickiness it stops you in your tracks. I hate that you have to put down your other foot to move

### 1/5 — Controls are terrible

*2023-06-12, version 1.0.36*

Loved this game on console years ago. Hard to say whether or not I’d like this one because it’s unplayable.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Extremely fun highly recommend

*2025-11-23, version 1.0.37*

Brilliant game 10/10 100% Cannot recommend enough but I completed it in three days (I wish there was more!)

### 5/5 — This game is AWESOME!

*2025-11-10*

This is one of THE BEST games, however I wish there was more things to do in the game. Maybe Octodad 2? There can be a new baby when Octodad has to take care of it while avoiding the evil chef, and not disturbing the baby. If you disturb it, it starts crying, and people start getting suspicious of you. You have to calm it down as soon as possible, but if you did NOT disturb it and it cries, you have to see what it needs. Then they go on a road trip, and what not then obviously, you (devs) decide the storyline. Thanks! Great game, 10/10, would ABSOLUTELY recommend.

### 5/5 — More shorts ideas?

*2025-09-23, version 1.0.37*

Love this game it never gets old, I especially love the shorts, i have some ideas for more I’d like to share with you, maybe you could do a short about octodad getting job(s), or do one about him starring in a movie! Anyway, these are just some of my ideas, if you choose not to use them that’s okay, but please add more shorts to this game!

### 5/5 — amazing

*2025-09-07, version 1.0.37*

### 5/5 — Just like the original

*2025-06-07, version 1.0.37*

Extremely frustrating but exactly like the original

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-05-24, version 1.0.37*

Made me google how octopi mate

### 5/5 — Honestly, the deadliest catch+ is the best

*2025-04-17, version 1.0.37*

Hello, I played your game and I thought this is the epic game. It’s funny because you’re an octopus and you’re gonna be treating a human family. Yeah I just started playing this is one of the best games you should play very funny. You will get used to the controls. The tutorial will help you. if you’re on phone, it’s a little harder🦾 but eventually you’ll get the controls and then it will be more fun instead of walking with one leg and then the one doesn’t wanna go overall your game is pretty good/perfect find us at @WHAT THE CAR 🚗 the website is called developers of silly games.com go check it out. It’s funny. anyways. Nice game.

### 5/5 — I would get

*2025-03-24, version 1.0.37*

It is a educational puzzle for kids I would say

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-03-22, version 1.0.37*

The game is amazing but I would love it if after you beat the game you could just play it freely otherwise it is amazing

### 5/5 — OMG

*2025-02-26, version 1.0.37*
