Wattam Physical Edition (PS4) – $29.99
From the creator of Katamari Damacy and Noby Noby Boy, the legendary Keita Takahashi’s latest opus is Wattam—a game that, at its core, is the ultimate toybox. Its depth of emotion is astounding, chronicling the friendship and folly in the most joyously colorful and bombastic of ways. It’s a very special experience, years-in-the-making, and iam8bit is so very proud to present Wattam in a lovingly crafted physical form. Collect all three exclusive covers, lest one be lonely.
- Collect all three covers: Apple + Sushi + Sun
- Pack-in bonus: Original instruction manual written and illustrated by creator Keita Takahashi
- Music by Asuka, Brad, Sam, and Timmie

Wattam Vinyl Soundtrack – $39.99
Wattam is undoubtedly a game bursting with personality thanks to its colorful cast of characters, yet creator Keita Takahashi (Katamari Damacy, Noby Noby Boy) knows just how important music is to sprinkling the universe with whimsy and charm. You don’t stand a chance against this incredible album, because listening to its many wondrous tracks immediately induces serenity through cartoonishly large smiles. Perfectly transporting listeners to an alternate realm of absolute glee, this soundtrack is actively jolly, yet surprisingly loungey, especially that infectiously—and instantly classic—theme song.
