    Nota: 9.5

    A direção de arte é belíssima, da uma nostalgia de jogos e desenhos antigos. As vezes se torna um pouco frustrante devido a dificuldade, mas é muito divertido de se jogar, é totalmente justo e tem mecânicas que funcionam bem.

    It was fun all the time. As far as I remember i had only problems with Kahls Robot and the Devil. Giving this game 0 because too hard makes me puke... Really? Too hard? Bruh... I am mental and I beaten it! Who in the right mind would say it is too hard! A child? A grandpa? I do not get it.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Combat and visuals are excellent. The art design is some of the finest ever made. Bosses are all unique and fun to beat. The run and gun levels however are a significant flaw. They are not fun to play. They would be serviceable if they were optional, but you are only able to collect coins for upgrades from these levels. Expand

    25 hours and I passed it on the keyboard (Highly recommend to pass on the joystick)
    The plot is normal, the soundtrack is cool, the game design is excellent, a lot of interesting and original content,

    I played it with my friend a lot. And we both love this game, its interesting and beautiful retro style. It was interesting to go through bosses that were completely different.

    Cuphead is difficult and brings us the aesthetic of the old days in all aspects including music, The story of cups will be remembered as one of the best independent games

    The incredibly charming art style, reminiscent of the early Disney cartoon era, makes this game a treat to play. The art style juxtaposed with the challenging run n guns and boss fights makes this game a favorite of mine. Takes lots of patience. 10/10

    hoş grafikleri var fakat zor bir oyun, eğlencesine bir kaç dakika takılacak bir oyun değil, zorluk seviyesi yüksek ve refleks isteyen platform oyunları istiyorsanız güzel. düşük puan verdiğime bakmayın ben oynayamadım...

    Very refreshing gameplay, I like that you have to learn every boss and enemy and that its not that easy as other platformer like mario or donkey kong. The graphic is very individual and nice.

    The art style, the soundtrack, the gameplay, almost everything about this game is phenomenal

    The only thing I'm mixed on are the PC controls, but besides that everything is amazing in this game.

    Damn near perfect game. Everything has so much love and effort put into it. The art style is probably the best I've ever seen in a video game. The music is top notch. The gameplay is difficult, yet fun. The bosses (for the most part) are incredibly fun. Everything just clicks to create this fantastic game. The only cons I have are the run and gun levels. They feel a bit like patting, butDamn near perfect game. Everything has so much love and effort put into it. The art style is probably the best I've ever seen in a video game. The music is top notch.

    This game is nice but you need to stay calm while playing or else you are probably gonna smash all your controllers or keyboreds. All the bad reviews are probably due to the fact that this game is too hard. (also if you dont have a controller, then dont buy it cuz playing with a keybored is not the best option)

    Beautiful art, good OST, but I don't think they should've made this game so frustratingly difficult. Some bosses are absolute cancer. They made me feel like I got lucky when I finally beat them instead of getting better. It took me about 17 hours for As on all bosses. I think the game's difficulty should be shaved off by a third. Yeah, it would be a shorter but more enjoyable experienceBeautiful art, good OST, but I don't think they should've made this game so frustratingly difficult. Some bosses are absolute cancer.

    Artisticamente un capolavoro, i combattimenti in aria sono una gioia per gli occhi e una scoperta nello sviluppo del gioco, semplicemente ciò di cui c'era bisogno, un gioco arcade visionario pieno di amore, sia per la cultura vidioludica che per l'animazione anni 30

    Отличная игра с отличной графикой и музыкой. Я её хоть и не прошел, потому что слишком сложно, но доволен.

    Cuphead is a stunningly looking, wonderfully animated interactive cartoon with three hours of jazz and ragtime playing in the background. Its gameplay however lacks the brilliance of the audiovisual layer. [12/2017, p.46]

    It is easy to tell that the developers studied the history of the genre through and through, delivering a stellar run and gun experience brought to life with unique old fashioned cartoon graphics. It may have it flaws, but when a game is this appealing it is easy to forgive.

    An amazing looking game that will punish you. And you'll like it. [Issue#267, p.65]
