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.
COGconnected: 74 / 100 by Jaz Sagoo
The platforming and level design in Wavetale is fantastic. You can easily fly up buildings in style due to the responsive controls. Even though the objectives are similar throughout, the areas are well-designed to make each island refreshing. While you can overlook the lackluster and rigid combat, the performance issues are harder to ignore. Screen tearing and pop-ins are frequent and hinder the experience. However, fans of games like Solar Ash and The Pathless will still enjoy the game.

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.
