I think it’s fair to say that games are very good at pushing boundaries. At least a video game is an interactive work of art. We know they have so much more to offer, but it’s definitely true. I say this because I can’t remember the last time I picked a title and was so immersed that I could have sat in a theater, watched a good movie on my couch at home, or planted my nose in my favorite book. The title that we are going to look at today is certainly a piece of graphic beauty, but it goes so much further and at the same time ticks many other boxes. I can’t wait to tell you everything. It’s called Wavetale and I’m having a bit of trouble getting it off. Let’s see why, okay?
A disaster happened in Wavetale, the city (and the world in general) is under water, and people live on islands and sail from place to place by boat. It’s not safe to go swimming, so what is literally everywhere now is also one of the biggest perils. That being said, what if you could walk on water? Well, here the story of a young girl received fantastic powers. With new abilities granted by an unlikely friend, they banish the otherworldly fog that has enveloped their house and prevent the townspeople from being captured by the sinister dirty paws.
I seem to be saying it a lot lately, but the premise of Wavetale isn’t exactly complicated. A darkness that sucks life has covered your home, and you need to banish it by collecting sparks and fixing light sources in different places. It starts at the lighthouse where you live. However, the headlight beam can only eliminate a large part of the peril darkness. From there they leave with the goal of permanently eliminating the eclipse. In any other game, it would boil down to collecting things so that you can fix something that opens up a new area where you can collect more, I’ve been saying a lot lately, but the premise of Wavetale is not exactly complicated.

We’ve all played these games, but you need something cool to carry around if you’re not going to fall a little flat. This is where the impressive travel mechanic comes in, which makes playing this game really entertaining.
Your companion will give you more than the strength to walk on the water. Imagine the possibility of surfing without a board. This is what the movement looks like in this title.It’s fast and smooth, and as you learn to make better use of your new skills, you’ll learn a bunch of cool tricks that will make navigating Wavetale an absolute boom.
Before you know it, you will be running along the waves and with the really fluent grappling mechanics you will learn to throw yourself in the air and jump from obstacle to obstacle. This title is not your standard platformer. The usual jumping mechanics are mixed with what I can only call a form of parkour, and this is implemented so impeccably that movement is a joy. In addition to this action is easy to pick up and simply a matter of evil thugs using their net. Nothing is frustrating and it is very welcome in a game that could very easily have been too complicated.
Graphically, Wavetale is absolutely gorgeous. It’s like being in control of an animated movie and I’m one hundred percent here for the art direction that was taken. The graphic Wavetale is absolutely stunning. It’s like being in control of an animated movie and I’m one hundred percent here for the art direction that was taken. The music score matches the experience really well and the voice acting is appropriate and really well done. From an aesthetic point of view, I have absolutely no complaints. When you get rid of the gloom, you can’t wait to see what the next area you explore will bring. The desire to see everything that this game has to offer makes it an addictive title.
The history of Wavetale is the history of Wavetale is both well written and synchronized. Although the concept is simple, the characters you experience along the way are pretty cute for the most part and add to the heartwarming nature of the game. This title could very easily have been a serious matter, but thanks to very clever writing, everything is kept at a level that would be very attractive for a teenage audience. The juxtaposition of gloomy darkness and safer areas painted with colors.
