Ever want to feel like the world’s best father? Test your might against some of the world’s most renown fathers such as Fish or Space Dad and duke it out to see who is the best Dad!

Alright, first off, this is a goofy game. It really doesn’t make much sense, but it is so much fun. Pick a dad and a color, and then make your way into the arena. There are three different game modes, and each feel different yet still feel familiar thanks to the game’s gameplay.

The game functions like other popular arena combat games. There are platforms around the map, and you must fight the other dads. The game modes decide what you need to do besides beat the other dads, but fighting your friends is so rewarding in itself. Every player carries around their baby, and the point of the game is to stun the other players so you can complete the objective.

In the first game type, Smash and Grab, beat up the other dads, steal their baby, and take it to your goal. A little dark, but the art and style of the game really helps to lessen your guilt. Most babies scored wins.

Diaper Sniper is the second game type and focuses almost completely on being able to throw items well. find “full”diapers around the map and throw them at the other dads to eliminate them. Most eliminations wins. Like I said, this is a goofy game.

The final game type, Corporate Ladder, is all about coin collecting and platforming. Climb up a moving screen to collect coins. Try to eliminate your friends by getting them to fall of the screen somehow. Most coins/last alive wins.

This goofy game provides plenty of fun with your friends. If you get this game, I would highly recommend not telling your friends what they are playing before playing this game. The surprise on their face when they play this is almost worth the price alone. Apart from that, this game is actually really fun and pretty easy for your friends to get a hold of in a round or two.

It’s a great cheap game. What more could anyone ask for?
