I’d seen this game get gradually cheap and cheaper on the eShop but never bit, until two sequels came out and were bundled together and then reduced. Look, cheap things come to those who wait.
Dadish – a radish who is a dad, obviously – has to navigate a load of platforming challenges to save his many, many kids. You can jump, and double jump, and that’s it, but there are a good variety of levels and gimmicks with usual platform game features like spikes, springs and moving platforms.
There’s nothing outstanding here, but it is a solid, well made game with some really funny conversations between Dadish and both his kids and the characters you meet. Levels are tricky but never frustrating, and unlike the thousand other games on the eShop that are superficially similar, it nails the physics and collision detection which are essential to the genre but broken so often.
Now onto the sequel!
