Dadish 3

I don’t have kids, but if I was a single parent, I feel like I’d go crazy worrying about them. Being a parent seems like hard work, harder than I feel capable of. I say that now, knowing I’ve never experienced this significant life change, but perhaps I can simulate what fatherhood would be like through games. Well, sort of? Dadish 3 placed me into the role of a father trying to save his children from a bus trip gone wrong. There’s just one catch: That dad and his kids are all radishes!

Here we have a cute little 2D indie platformer with pixel graphics set in a strange world of friendly veggies and all sorts of snacks as your enemies. But don't get tricked by its cuteness, behind it is an unforgiving gameplay where one small mistake will send you straight back to the beginning of the level or a check point (which are still pretty far from each other). Don't get me wrong, the game is challenging, but it's not completely unfair like some of these hardcore mario-clone titles. Depending on your patience level this game will just slightly make you scream to yourself instead of throwing your phone against the wall. In the end I think it'd would still worth your time checking this game out.

The Dadish series stands out in the 2D pixel art platform. Developer Thomas K Young has just launched their new work on mobile, Dadish 3. The plot of the story is very unexpected, my children suddenly disappeared! I needed to find them, and so the game began. This is not a battle platform and I can't attack the enemies. So I had to think about how to find the answer in a level with no save points. Of course, I admit that this game is very difficult. Each death was particularly painful for me.
