The strategy begins with a lump of clay in Double Fine’s latest surprise: an online multiplayer pottery party brawler that manages to be both charming and chaotic. At first glance, it’s about shaping beautiful pots, coaxing art from malleable earth with your own two hands. But soon enough, those delicate creations transform into weapons, launched at opponents in a frantic battle that’s as much about timing as it is about style.
Double Fine’s signature whimsy shines through the concept, blending creative expression with competitive mayhem. You’re not just building in isolation; you’re crafting around a tense, unpredictable battlefield where each pot’s design can influence the fight. There’s a satisfying loop to it, from molding the clay to deciding when to throw your handiwork to disrupt your friends.
Visually, the game balances quirky aesthetics with enough tactile feedback to make the pottery feel genuine, while the multiplayer chaos ensures no two matches play the same. It might sound like a niche mashup, but Double Fine pulls it off with a confident grasp of what makes both creation and competition fun. Pottery has never felt this aggressive or playful.
