When you eventually pick it up, it’s then a case of trying to put it down without making a complete mess of it which is nigh on impossible. Just picking up a bottle of milk can feel like an eternal struggle as you watch the arm flap wildly as you carefully try to guide it to the target. With the joysticks, Octodad’s trying to grab an item looks more like a person who’s had a few too many drinks beforehand as you try to line up the arm with an item you need to interact with. Similarly, there’s certainly no quick-time events like in games like Call of Duty where you walk up to something a press a particular button at a pre-arranged time.

Whereas in most modern games you control your character’s movement through a limited selection of turning, jumping and crouching your way across a map, to control Octodad you need to control each individual limb through the four trigger button on the PS4 controller, along with the joysticks to decide where he is going to go. With the original game first being launched in 2010 on PCs by a small team of developers, the cartoon story of an octopus living his day-to-day life with his human family – who are somehow completely oblivious to his aquatic heritage – quickly developed a considerable online following not for an intricate plot or stunning graphics, but rather for a control system which makes the simplest of tasks in the real world seem like the most challenging co-ordinated movements ever seen in a video game. The sequel to the indie cult classic Octodad, Octodad: Dadliest Catch, is perhaps one of the strangest, weirdest and the most frustratingly fun games you’re likely to play anytime soon.
