    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game Is a short burst of instant dying fun for a recent released next gen console game, the game play is simple, the second player option saves it from being a no score, for a time killer you and a friend can throw skulls and eggs at enemies to kill them and grab coins with a techno soundtrack in the background. The fifth game around half hour into the game, the game can quickly become boring unless you're into repetitive game play. The skulls explode and thing get competitive. The Deluxe Edition gives a couple more characters and a map or two, for £3 and pennies, not worth it, for a free PS+ worth a short download when a friend is round.… Expand

    This game has none of the retro charm I miss from my younger years. It is a broken mess. The graphics are crude (this is why people don't program on Atari 2600's in 2015), the music awful and the gameplay repetitive. The controls are a joke and map design is pitiful.

    A horrible little game even for free this month. Avoid at all costs unless you want your childhood memories destroyed.    … Expand

    For some weird reason there are studios that think it's okay to release retro arcade games for next-gen consoles. It's not. They profit from our nostalgia. However, if I'd want to play an old-school game such as this, I'd use my tablet or phone.

    I'm giving it a 2 because you and your friend can have 5 minutes of fun in this otherwise boring, repetitive, poorly designed game.

    Medicore game at best. The game is very simple, and does not have great controls or any kind of resembling story. I would look elsewhere to spend your precious time.

    I really enjoyed playing Woah Dave. It reminds me of old-school arcade games where you would just repeatedly kill enemies in a fixed screen, just getting a higher score the better you got at it. I really enjoyed the first boss (don't know if there's others) and Woah Dave gave me at the time my most rare trophy on psn (2.7%?) for getting 300 coins, which made me very proud of myself.I really enjoyed playing Woah Dave.

(Currently my rarest trophy is for beating Aaru's Awakening though, which is 0.9%).

    Is it a short game? yes. Do I think I'll ever get the trophy for collecting 1000 coins? I doubt it. I'm not that good, and it gets really hard. But it's a solid game, with good mechanics and nice arcade-like audio.    … Expand

    As a completely free game on PlayStation Plus, Woah Dave! is brief, throwaway fun. There's nothing wrong with it, but its sheer lack of content means I wouldn't want to spend anything on it.
