''Dewy's Adventure'' is a peculiar {{platformer}} for the Nintendo Wii, released by {{Creator/Konami}} in 2007. Unlike most platformers, where the player controls the character as they run and jump, ''Dewy's Adventure'' has the player controlling the ''world itself,'' as the titular Dewy slips and slides along it. (This uses the Wii Remote's motion-sensing capabilities, natch.) Not unlike Creator/{{Sega}}'s ''VideoGame/SuperMonkeyBall'' series, but Dewy can also jump, attack, use special abilities, and even change forms, just like any other good platforming hero. It is one half of Konami's "storybook" duology for the Wii, alongside ''VideoGame/{{Elebits}}.''

to:

* GroundPound: Dewy's basic attack, in regular water form. It's called a Hip Slam, and you'll most likely end up using it more to [[MundaneUtility aid in platforming]] than for actual combat. His ice form offers a more advanced one that homes in on nearby enemies and can pull of combo attacks.

The game takes place in a massive tree known as the [[WorldTree Tree of Life]], which is home to spirits known as Eaus that keep the balance of nature in check. Eaus are peaceful beings, but in times of strife, they have a protector: Dewy, an enchanted droplet of water who is summoned by the tree in times of need. The tree also has an old nemesis in the form of the Black Water: A sinister ooze that rains from the sky to poison the tree. As the latest chapter in this battle as old as time unfolds, the Black Water has managed to not only take all the Eaus hostage, but also steal all of the mystical Wonder Fruits from the tree. With the last of its strength, the manages to summon Dewy to combat the forces of the Black Water and reclaim all the fruits that keep nature in check.

'''This game contains examples of:'''

* AnIcePerson: Dewy, by virtue of being able to ''change the weather to freeze the entire world.'' His ice form itself only uses melee powers, but just freezing the world itself can affect many enemies.
* AutoRevive: The Reserve Life, which automatically restores you to full health when you die (and acts like a full heal if you collect it when you already have one). You'll need them.
* BadassAdorable: Sure, Dewy looks cute ''now.'' But when he's repeatedly comboing your face with ''shards of ice,'' (after paralyzing you with a ''screen-filling lightning blast'') you probably won't be so generous.
* BilingualBonus: "Eau" means "water" in French. Not all of the Eaus resemble water (a lot of them look like other natural elements), but water is definitely important to the Tree of Life.
* BlowYouAway: Dewy can create gusts of wind through the world. Certain enemies are vulnerable to them, but they also activate certain mechanisms.
* EmergencyWeapon: Normal Dewy's GroundPound move. It has limited range and doesn't do much damage, and usually needs to be used in conjunction with other, weather-based powers to do anything worthwhile. It's more useful for cancelling jumps than combat.
* {{Fartillery}}: [[{{Gasshole}} Gasdron]], the first boss, sprays clouds of stinky gas. Just in case it wasn't clear, the jug he rides around in has a [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar pimply behind]] sculpted on the back of it.
* GottaCatchEmAll: Every level has 100 Eaus, which you'll need to collect to get the best ranking.
* GreenHillZone: Groovy Grassland, the first world.
* GroundPound: Dewy's basic attack, in regular water form.
* HeartContainer: Every level contains a MookMaker who guards a Health Shard. Collecting every Health Shard from a world gives you one extra unit of health.
* LethalLavaLand: The volcano, naturally. Due to its temperature, Dewy can't become his ice form here--especially tricky, since that's his most combat-oriented form.
* MookMaker: The large, pitcher-shaped enemies continually spit up basic mooks.
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: The aptly-named Chompies are about 90% toothy mouth. They're still cute.
* ProductPlacement: Some of the between-level tip screens feature product placement for... bottled water. Well, it makes a kind of sense.
* RuleOfCute: Breathes this trope through its every pore. It's a ''really'' cute game.
* ShockAndAwe: Cloud Dewy can shoot massive bolts of lightning that can kill (or paralyze) large numbers of enemies.
* SlippySlideyIceWorld: Ice Island. Since it's so cold, Dewy can't become his cloud form in this level.
* SpringySpores: Dewy can bounce off mushrooms, and GroundPound them for extra height.
* SuperDrowningSkills: It isn't so much that Dewy drowns as that he "loses himself" when he falls into a large body of water. He can glide safely across if he turns it into ice first, however.
* SurpriseDifficulty: Don't be fooled by its cutesy exterior: This game means ''business,'' especially for those going for HundredPercentCompletion.
* TreeOfLife: Where the game takes place.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Dewy has the ability to change the temperature, which, being a drop of water, also changes his form. In cold temperatures, he becomes an icicle with improved combat abilities, increased speed, and the ability to move on water. High temperatures turn him into a cloud that [[ShockAndAwe shoots lightning]] and can travel through wind currents (but can't move much on its own).
* WinteryRoyalLady: Icedron, the boss of Icy Island, appears to be wearing a robe, and has a crown like a queen.
