TPP action adventure game with an open world, developed by Zoink Games studio. In Wavetale we play as the heroine who travels at lightning speed through a vast archipelago and fights monsters that attacked her homeland.
Wavetale is an action adventure game with an open world. It was developed by Zoink Games, a studio known for such projects as Stick It to The Man!, Fe or Lost in Random. The game was published by Thunderful Publishing.
Wavetale takes us on a journey to a fantastic universe, to be precise - to the Strandville archipelago. This once peaceful place fell victim to the attack of mysterious sea creatures, which changed the lives of its inhabitants into a real fight for survival. We play as Sigrid, who decides to use her extraordinary powers to uncover the underwater secrets and save her people from a deadly danger.
In Wavetale we observe the action from the third person perspective (TPP). Production provides us with a vast archipelago. Wandering through it, we meet its inhabitants, among whom we find pirates, fishermen or a certain cocky surfer, and complete various tasks.
Sigrid has befriended a mysterious shadow, which allows her to walk on the surface of the water and glide incredibly fast just above it. In the same way the protagonist moves on land; moreover, she can overcome small distances in the air. All this makes the exploration not only dynamic, but also impressive and pleasing to the eye. As the game world does not lack opponents, an important role is also played by dynamic battles (whether with regular enemies or powerful bosses), during which we make use of the landing net used in close combat.
With time, we gain various cosmetic accessories (such as clothes, headgear or new hair colors). As we progress, Sigrid fills her journal with special drawings, deepening our knowledge of the presented world.
Wavetale features colorful cartoon-like graphics.

Game Ratings for Wavetale Video Game.
Nintendo Life: 6 / 10 by Michelle See-Tho
Wavetale 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.
PC Invasion: 7.5 / 10 by Andrew Farrell
Wavetale is only four hours long and can be too one-note for its own good, but a captivating world and resonant story make it worth playing all the same.
Nindie Spotlight: 8 / 10 by Justin Nation
Toning down the typical action adventure, Wavetale features plenty of serene and beautiful moments along the way
