Wuppo is an adventure game with additional RPG and platform game elements. The game was developed by a duo of independent developers known as Knuist & Perzik and was released for a number of platforms, including PC, XONE and PS4.
Wuppo takes us to a fantasy world. The player assumes control of a wum, an easy-going round being who has been exiled from his home community. The hero has to embark on a dangerous journey in order to find himself a new home. Unexpectedly, the protagonist becomes involved in a conspiracy that sees him solve an ancient conflict.
In Wuppo, the action is seen from a side scrolling perspective. Our journey sees us travel through vast and varied locales (including two major cities known as Popocity and Bliekopolis), avoid numerous traps and take care of various opponents including powerful bosses. The battles take place in real time and require agility as well as good use of wum’s abilities. On the other hand, the player encounters neutral characters and puzzles that are solved by employing found items. Moreover, our hero gathers stills that reveal the origins of this unique world.
Wuppo’s two-dimensional graphics are especially characteristic for their unique design – the game sports waterpainted visuals. We are also left with an atmospheric soundtrack that further reinforces the fantasy setting.

Game Ratings for Wuppo Video Game.
GamePitt: 8.5 / 10 by Rob Pitt
Wuppo is an adorable puzzle/platformer which will last you about 10-12 hours. The enemies do get progressively more difficult so they offer a challenge to everyone, with the ability to lower the difficulty level if you find it a little too hard. The game offers a lot of chances to explore and investigate with lots of hidden dialogue and side missions which will have you laughing out loud.
GameGrin: 8 / 10 by Tyler Schurwan
With a distinct sense of humour and a few secrets hidden beneath its cutesy demeanor, Wuppo will surprise any player that hasn't seen it in action before. This sense of surprise is consistent throughout and is only made that much better when bosses are introduced. Interesting areas with bizarre characters and tons of items to play with, Wuppo will keep you busy for a remarkable amount of time.
Worth Playing: 8.5 / 10 by Brian Dumlao
Wuppo excels at being a solid and cute title. The presentation makes it seem like it was made for kids, but players of all ages will find it endearing. The musical score is enjoyable, and the game's quirkiness makes the story work. The gameplay, from boss fights to puzzles of varying types, works thanks to its simplicity and good pacing. This is definitely a labor of love from the two-man development team, and it is definitely recommended for gamers of all types.
