Wattam is a new PS4 exclusive from Robin Hunicke (Boom Blocks, My Sims) and Keita Takahashi (Katamari Damacy, Noby Noby Boy, Tenya Wanya Teens). The game was inspired by Takahashi’s experiences playing with his two year old son, as they wondered “what if all toys lived, and connected by themselves?” Sounds a lot like amiibo and Skylanders, though knowing Takahashi, it’s unlikely that Wattam will end up going in that direction. 

We’ll be finding out more about Wattam when 2015 rolls around. Hopefully Funomena doesn’t stretch out the reveals for too long.
