Description: Ever felt like a squid out of water? Tentacular plunges you into the ocean-dwelling hulk of a gigantic, kind-hearted tentacled beast trying to figure out its place in the world.
Raised among humans on the bustling and eccentric island of La Kalma, the time has finally come to unravel the secrets of your mysterious origin while working as the world’s strongest handyman. Help your human friends to research a strange and an incredibly powerful energy source through a colossal collection of action-based activities and constructions puzzles, using your titanic tentacles to aid your quest for answers and unlock elements for your very own playground in the creative sandbox mode.
Review: ‘Tentacular’ is a colourful story-driven adventure game that sees you playing the role of an Octopuss with giant tentacles. There are a series of tasks and mini-games to finish, most of which are pretty simple, but some will take more than a few goes to finish. It’s bright, colourful and strangely fun once you get used to the tentacles. While it doesn’t have the most amount of content you can always replay several events in the open mode to eke out those gameplay hours. While I would have liked it to have been a little cheaper I appreciate all the graphical and psychics work that has gone into it.
