    In its genre this game is just a masterpiece. We're still looking for something alike to fulfill the void if left.

    The game is a platform / boss slayer where the objective is: Defeat your enemies, don't die, which is very difficult...

    This is another point where the difficulty is extremely high, there are several elements on the screen, bosses with plenty of health and you with little, which makes the game very challenging, but not unfair, since over time you memorize the boss's moves , and the blows.

    The audio is another point apart, also very well done and reminds of the old drawings. Since the story is not a central point and it's just a background item to justify the game, it doesn't make it a bad point, but I think it helps since you don't need to focus on the story and yes, only on the gameplay of this game.

    Lo jugué en cuanto salió en la pc de mi hermano, recientemente lo compre en GOG y la experiencia fue mas gratificante dado que me adapte muy rápido y de hecho lo terminé en menos de 12 horas. Es un juego único, graficas no vistas en ningún otro juego y una banda sonora que es apreciable por cualquiera, junto con Celeste son de los mejores indies que he jugado en mi vida.
    100% recomendable.

    I love this game. It is so much fun and it also is challenging enough. I thought that I would never complete the third area and yet I finished the whole game. Absolutely love the art style, music and animation. Definitely worth your money, time and effort.

    Не прощающая ошибок игра, в стиле Американской мультипликации 20-х годов 20 века, ставит жирную точку в споре о том, может ли прошлый век, быть интересен молодёжи. 10/10

    Obra de arte audiovisual con una jugabilidad muy adictiva con animaciones increíbles y con una dificultad bastante buena, es increíble lo que puede hacer un pequeño equipo de personas para crear algo tan asombroso como lo es Cuphead.

    Sin duda alguna uno de los mejores juegos del 2017, y en mi opinión el mejor juego de 2017 los gráficos, la jugabilidad y todo lo demás lo hace realmente una joya

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Melhor impossível!
    Gráficos feitos à mão, cenários totalmente desenvolvidos em maquete e colocados em game totalmente em estilo anos 30!
    Trilha sonora digna de Grammy, com instrumentos de primeira e nada sintetizado ou coisa do tipo, uma verdadeira obra de arte!
    Fiz todas as conquistas, zerei no normal e experiente sem frescura nenhuma e ainda fiz perfeito em 98% das fases, jogo perfeito, quem falar que não vale à pena por ser difícil, provavelmente não conseguiu passar do tutorial e tiltou com o jogo, pode comprar até em preço cheio que nem eu que não irá se arrepender. 100/10 Perfeito!

    As perfect as a game can practically be. Not for everyone but that isn't really a flaw. I am looking at someone complaining that this isn't skill-based compared to games like Dark Souls. That it's not hard but unfair. No, no you're actually a vegetable in the brain bro. The 'randomness' is predictable, there are only a couple variations of each move.

The 'randomness' is predictable, there are only a couple variations of each move. It isn't unfair, it's difficult muscle memory, just like Dark Souls. I never experienced issues with collision detection. And you have 3 health, kinda just, a hard game yknow? That's the whole point! What?! Undodgable situations more like no that literally just isn't true. Expand

    cuphead is a game that I was surprised by the graphics identical to the 30s references. The bosses are different from each other the music scenarios and of course the attacks we have frogs with reference to street fight that throw fireballs and the other one plays flaming insects you will have to learn the attack pattern of each boss and the villain talking about it the story.

It was so cuphead and mugman left their house and went to bet more will win so many that then they are challenged they will stay with the casino and the wealth more if and Losing will not have their souls and they will lose anyway the old kettle gives you tips and of course magical powers shots and now just knock out all the bosses and the game is over We have shots one looks like a marble another a boomerang another one follows the enemies one keeps carrying it and so on We also have specials, I will only speak the first you give a horizontal blow to your enemy and items one makes you invisible in the attack, another 4 or 5 lives, your special load automatically. It is worth it? Of course it has reference to mega Men metal slug Mario everything!The game is difficult before buying see a gameplay Thanks for reading until the next review Expand

    Incredibly difficult, yet incredibly rewarding. It makes you feel like your the best once you complete a difficult boss. One of the best games out there.

    This game is awesome. The controls are great, the graphics are splendid and the game play is fun as hell. Prepare to die a ton, though. No punches are pulled here. Oh and the music is addictive.

    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

    El juego es muy bueno y fue inovador cuando salió, solo debes tomar en cuenta cuando lo juegues q puede ser un poco molesto cuando te atores en 1 nivel y que te puedes llegar a fastidiar pero fuera de eso 10/10

    Красивая игра с удивительной рисовкой в стиле мультфильмов старых годов. Нереально крутой саундтрек будет продвигать нас по не менее красивому миру. Так-же сложность игры заставит понервничать абсолютно каждого. Аналогов данному шедевру я не знаю. Лучшее в своем родеКрасивая игра с удивительной рисовкой в стиле мультфильмов старых годов.

    The game is great and everyone has given it all the praise it can get. BUT BE WARNED! This game is brutally difficult and if you don't have the patience to develop skills, you're gonna have a bad time.

    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]
