    I recommend this game to everyone who believes in himself, wants to learn patience, unity with his Self and watched Naruto.
    A little more and it was possible to put a cast on your fingers, but I coped.
    In general, impeccable manual labor, cartoon artful style and high complexity will stay in my memory for a long time

    Challenging game with and memorable characters, art style and music is incredible. I've never played a game with more charm than Cuphead. Only thing that's missing is online co-op and this game would be perfect by definition.

    The art style in this game is absolutely amazing and the music is stellar. Seeing the final phase of each boss was super cool. The difficulty in this game makes it even more rewarding when you finally beat that boss you were stuck on. My main gripe with this game is the lack of customisation options available for the plane levels, I would love if I was able to choose which guns I could useThe art style in this game is absolutely amazing and the music is stellar.

My main gripe with this game is the lack of customisation options available for the plane levels, I would love if I was able to choose which guns I could use for different boss fights instead of being stuck with the bomb and the gun on the plane levels.

    This game provides many challenges even for those like me who have passed all the souls series games(even Demons Souls), sekiro and bloodborne.

Immediately I want to note excellent art design and soundtrack. Now, regarding the gameplay, most of the bosses are an fair test, but there are also bosses who speak for themselves that there was something wrong with the developer when he did them. I'm talking about such bosses as Bee, Dr.Khauls Robot and King Dice, words cannot describe how disgusting it is to fight against them, and at the same time these fights are one of the longest in the game.Now we can talk about Run'Gun, on the first two islands they are rather complicated and interesting, I personally don't know what happened to the developer when he came up with the last two Run'Guns, but it was at least alcoholic intoxication, because I just can't imagine how sane a person is can come up with this **** especially Run'Gun in the port is a complete dumbstair. But despite these gameplay disadvantages, I am ready to recommend this game to a hardcore player or a platformer lover. 8 / 10… Expand

    Cuphead is a lovely homage to classic rubber hose animation. The limited room for error can make each boss frustrating, but also more rewarding when you finally beat them.

    Facilmente, um dos melhores jogos independentes de todos os tempos. Extremamente desafiador,
    e ainda sim muito divertido; tudo no game te dá uma sensação de "nostalgia" mesmo não vivenciando a época onde os shows mais influentes da época passavam; isso se dá a arte impecável desenhada à mão e à trilha sonora prazerosa de se escutar.

    Cuphead, already stands out for its animation style, referring to the old animated TV shows.

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

    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.    … Expand

    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.

    Whoever played any classic side scroll kind of game, then the difficulty in Cuphead is forgivable than any of the old games. And yes this game is so fun!

    This game was made with care and time, something that the big projects like Fallout 76 didn't have. It's super good, hard, and the art and music is just perfect. The problems are that it's a bit short, some levels are more fun than others (hate run and gun) and some perks are useless. But overall it's a good game, probably one of the best indies ever made.

    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.

    Really stunning art! 11/10! However, the gameplay is a bit repetitive, no progression to feel. I didn't feel the growth as a player either, like you do in Furi or Hollow Knight.
    But the art, man, the art is so wonderful!

    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.
