Wavetale Reviews
If you're looking for a relaxing platformer to spend a few hours with or to finish in a single weekend (or even one night if you binge), Wavetale is the game for you. It's also a great game for younger gamers to play due to its light difficulty and simple combat.
Wavetale is a heart-warming story of discovery and reconciliation. Traversal of the islands requires players to overcome some rather creative platforming challenges and never gets repetitive. Although it takes a while to get going, the story is well written and the adaptive music and environmental design of Strandville bring the place to life. This title has a lot going for it and although it is not the longest experience, it is well worth several hours of your time.
Wavetale is calm and relaxing, perhaps more so. A platformer with little replayability, a limited world, and zero challenge. A title to chill and surf for a while in a very well built world with a charming story, supported by a notable artistic section that is limited by its playable deficiencies.

Wavetale is impressive and extremely fun for those who enjoy high-speed traversal. It lacks challenge when it comes to combat, but it also means it doesn’t take much to return to exploration. There is a lot of extra stuff to do besides the main story, though it only results in more cosmetics. Those looking for a rather casual adventure game will love Wavetale.
Wavetale has the adequate duration for what it is: a fluid and agile adventure with an involved story and unexpectedly elaborate for the time it has. The combat fulfills a purely marginal purpose and the technical limitations do not follow the fluidity pattern, but are harmless enough to be highlighted in the context of a game of outstanding humanity and beauty.

Despite being far from being a flawless title, especially when it comes to graphic performance, easy challenges and low combat variety, Wavetale manages to easily captivate through its narrative. Alongside charming art direction and agile gameplay, these features make Sigrid's journey capable of offering a rich and fun experience on the open seas.

Wavetale’s interesting storytelling, beautiful world, and solid exploration are unfortunately held back by its shallow combat.
A 3D platformer that can grab you at first with the graceful water scrolling, but unfortunately doesn't go much further. Even some bugs, bad performance or broken physics at the end.

Wavetale is a fun adventure that's spoiled by repetition and some technical issues.

Toning down the typical action adventure, Wavetale features plenty of serene and beautiful moments along the way
Wavetale is an absolute joy. It's a game where you're exploring the watery ruins of a post-apocalyptic world, but it makes that exploration so much fun that you can't help but get swept up in the sheer fun of it all.
After the sinking of Google's console, Wavetale finally lands at other shores. It does so full of hope, to make known its own fascinating plot full of melancholy suggestions set in a watercolor world. If narratively the title has won us over with the delicacy of the story and ludically it has entertained us with its simple mechanics (for some people probably even too basic), unfortunately the technical compartment is to date embarrassing. A tsunami of problems that we hope will be fixed as soon as possible.
