This is a fantastic first-week unlock for Playdate, owing to its chill pace, charming script, and one-more-bird prodding to keep taking photos and solving puzzles. Having never seen "focus" as a mechanic in a 2D game before, I have to say, I am impressed at how nimbly these devs implemented the system. Playdate's crank works as the camera's "focus," and the game's 2D world will suddenly take on 3D depth in the form of a pixellated blur for nearby or distant objects like signs and trees. To fill out your bird-o-dex, solve simple puzzles to get birds to fly to convenient points on a screen, at which point you'll tap a button to pull out your camera. The game's writing reeks of Gen Z attitude, what with its frequent texting shorthand of phrases like "IDK," and that levity matches the game's art style and "find all the birds" whimsy. In this Pokemon-like RPG, you take photos of birds, solve mysteries, and tap through conversations with off-kilter NPCs.

That might be your cup of tea, in terms of games landing as "finished" nuggets of fun instead of stuttering out of the gate with missing content, but younger players should brace themselves for older-school content expectations. I previously suggested a "surf through rings" approximation of Wave Race 64, which could've been fun.īut in the Playdate first-season universe, content-filled patches are unlikely for this or any other game. But I'm still sad that Chuhai Labs didn't add an additional mode to exploit the crank-to-surf mechanic. Unlike WW's preview build, the game now offers trick tweaks via the D-pad, and these add spice to the basic gameplay. It's not like a frantic Mario Party minigame that might aggravate you for not recognizing your frantic joystick turns. Thankfully, it's easy to decipher the disconnect between those speeds and adjust accordingly, so basic gameplay feels fun and fair. You can rotate the crank over 2,000 degrees in real life in the time it takes your surfer to more realistically turn 1,080. Rotate your real-life crank 720, 1,080, or 1,440 degrees, and your surfer will respond in kind (so long as the surfer has enough air and speed it doesn't move one-to-one with your crank). The goal, as with other good quarter-munchers, is to score as much as you can before the wave catches up, which you do primarily by spinning the crank during mid-air wave hops. Every session inevitably ends with the wave's crest overtaking you, usually within 90 seconds. This is all seen from a top-down 2D perspective that resembles the classic surfing mode in California Games, only much smoother. Every session begins with your character catching a wave, steering a surfboard, and balancing speed, jumps, and mid-air tricks as you steer away from the wave's dangerous crest. WW is one of many games in Playdate's first season that revolves around a 1980s arcade mentality of quarter-munching, score-chasing action. The game runs smoothly, and it looks good in black and white. Whitewater Wipeout relies on the crank in a way that would be difficult to replicate with a joystick. Playdate's first unlock for new owners makes sense as a splashy "launch" game. If you're looking for massive games, Playdate is not for you. But if you're looking for a massive overview of a system's launch library, strap in.Īim your surfboard properly when you land a trick, or you'll crash. These are miniature reviews, owing as much to the number of games as to their general brevity. (Thus, if you want to spoil only the first four weeks of games, stop once you reach the "5"s.) Ars doesn't score game reviews, but since there are so many titles to pick through, I'm opting for a simple set of distinctions: "thumbs-up," "shoulder shrug," and "thumbs-down." These labels apply to both a game's fun factor and its Playdate uniqueness. The number next to each game name designates its unlock week, not its rating. (The main system review explains why you might not want to know this stuff just yet, and it includes a spoiler-free breakdown of the system's included games.)

As an additional spoiler, these titles are listed in their unlock order, since Panic mandates that the games appear on owners' devices as part of a two-per-week download process.
