Review for Woah Dave! on PlayStation Vita, PlayStation 4, and 3DS. Dave seriously needs to go to rehab. Very few games succeed in recreating the look and feel of the retro arcade era quite like Woah Dave! does. You'll find yourself playing over and over again while trying to beat your high score without the burden of opening a roll of quarters.
Here’s a timely look back at Woah Dave!, the minimalist masterpiece from Choice Provisions (formerly Gaijin Games). For fans of indie gaming, news of another beloved studio’s shutdown is never inexplicable. It’s a tough business for indie devs.
Pure Nintendo: Woah Dave! was a small but satisfying 3DS release from day one. When a huge update fleshed out the game with new characters, stages, and more, it became even better. It’s this “Deluxe” version that has recently launched on the Wii U. Since a review for the 3DS version fell through the Pure Nintendo cracks, please consider this coverage for both versions. And speaking of both, did you know there’s a cross-buy promotion? Sweet!
The developer behind the popular arcade game Woah Dave! has hinted that a sequel will be coming in late 2015
Woah Dave is crazy fast but a fun retro game. Cool to hear we may be getting a sequel.
i refuse to even download it for free. its literally shovelware and i don't want it stuck in my download history haunting me friom its awfulness.
Oh God, that game sucks. I was so disappointed it hit PS+. I don't expect all AAA titles but Germinator and Woah Dave stand out as the absolute worst the service threw up at my feet.
I hate to say it, but I totally agree with you, and I generally love retro-inspired games. Maybe I just didn't understand the game or give it enough time, but on several occasions that I tried it, I found the game to be almost unplayable. Very hard, and not fun in the least.
If they do make a sequel, I hope they put more effort into the gameplay.
I love retro-inspired games. It doesn't excuse crap that gets pumped out though. Actually, I tend to prefer shorter, retro style games now. My favorite handheld game of all time is probably Corpse Party.
It's sad too because I anted to like this game. It looks like an early 80's arcade game but plays like something from GameJam.
