Gaming AgeMatthew PolleselDec 2022Wavetale 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.

FourFaceButtonsDavid AedoDec 20224/10A cute little game that's too shallow to mean much. With more content and deeper mechanics, I could see this going somewhere, but it's hardly worth much as it stands.

Nintendo LifeMichelle See-ThoDec 20226/10Wavetale is a gentle, easygoing game that suits players who don't want to strain themselves, as its quick runtime ensures the play doesn't dry up. We enjoyed skidding around on the ocean and swinging from great heights with our grappling hook. We only wished the camera movement and other mechanics were a little smoother. The game is nonetheless pretty fun – after all, it's hard not to enjoy surfing through a picturesque, water-filled landscape. While we've played far better games, we felt like this short title was still a good one to dip your toes into.
