Is WAT? worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Fans of dark humor who want an open-world sandbox with unusual objectives
- Players who enjoy first-person town exploration and public pranks rather than linear missions
- Players seeking a food-distribution challenge that includes optional combat
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a tightly structured campaign rather than open-ended town activities
- Players wanting deep combat systems instead of occasional defense with the described equipment
- Players looking for a serious or realistic tone rather than dark humor and comic public interactions
Our take on WAT?
The open-world framing may suggest broad exploration as the main activity, but the central task is distributing fried potatoes while surviving attacks. The separate sandbox mode adds roaming and pranks, but the described objectives remain focused on town interactions and lawbreaking.
What is WAT??
Play as Bill Board, an elderly blogger who cooks fried potatoes with his grandson and distributes them around a small town while broadcasting the activity.
The game uses a first-person perspective and an open-world sandbox structure. Some residents may attack when offered food, so Bill can defend himself with a banana or a weapon purchased from a shop. The main objective is to feed as many people as possible while staying alive. A separate sandbox mode allows free exploration and pranks instead of focusing on feeding residents. Repeated lawbreaking causes the police to search for Bill.
