Octocopter: Super Sub Squid Escape for Nintendo Wii U
About Octocopter: Super Sub Squid Escape for Nintendo Wii U
Octocopter Super Sub Squid Escape is a small and bubbly arcade game about a squid in a tiny submarine. Our little pilot must escape through underwater passages filled with hazards, grumpy sea life and tight squeezes. The look is bright and cartoonish, with bubbles, coral and cheerful colors in every corner. There is no heavy story to follow, just a brave squid, a plucky sub and a long swim to freedom. It is the sort of light game that makes you smile before you even press start.
Control is simple to grasp and tricky to master. You guide the sub up and down through scrolling passages, threading gaps and dodging obstacles that drift into your path. One careless bump can end a run, so steady hands and calm nerves win the day. Runs are short, which makes beating your best distance addictive in the classic arcade way. The Wii U GamePad keeps the view close and personal, and quick restarts mean your next attempt is always seconds away. Chasing a cleaner escape becomes its own reward.

An honest word on buying this tiny title today. The Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Wii U closed in March 2023, so new digital purchases are no longer possible. A physical disc sold by a retailer is the honest way to play now, although this small indie release is very hard to find. Owners who bought the game digitally before the closure can still access their purchased games on their console. Most fans will simply treasure the copy they already own.
Small squid, big escape, steady hands.
