''Octodad'' is a freeware game by a team of students from DePaul University. To quote the official site, ''Octodad'' is a third-person adventure game about destruction, deception and fatherhood. The player controls Octodad, a dapper octopus masquerading as a human, as he goes about a day of his life. His existence is a constant struggle, as he must master mundane tasks [[Some Dexterity Required|with his unwieldy boneless tentacles]] while simultaneously keeping his cephalopodian nature a secret from his human family. |
