Aug 25, 2023Great game, which is very original and has a unique 1930s cartoon-style visuals. However, it is exceptionally difficult, even when opting to play through levels on 'Easy' mode.

Apr 9, 2023Incredible art style, addictive and punishing combat, loud and lively music, a must-have for any fan of platformers and amazing 2D boss battles.

Jan 19, 2023I just beat this game last week. To be honest, I don't think the game system is fair, and it is quite difficult. I like challenging games but they have to be fair enough for gamers to challenge. Anyhow, it's art style and 30s' cartoon direction is really cool.

Aug 1, 2022A short game, but only if you have the knowleddge and the skill, without it, the game feels eternal, an amazing artstyle and an outstanding ost. Marine Corps is my favorite song on the base game

May 31, 2022Cuphead ist so ein brillantes Spiel, wahrscheinlich so gut wie ein 2D-Plattformer nur bekommen kann, der brillante künstlerische Stil und die schiere Hingabe an das Thema, gemischt mit der Gameplay-Vielfalt und dem hervorragenden kreativen Design rundherum, und so ein schöner Schwierigkeitsgrad.

Apr 12, 2022Cuphead und Switch passen zusammen, so sexy und gut, vor allem unterwegs. Kein Kaffee, nur Milch, großzügig.

Dec 24, 2021This game is so unique. Great animations, great music, throwing you back to a different time.
Great challenge, definitely an achievement when you finally beat the last boss! However it does feel too frustrating at times... -
Dec 19, 2021The 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.
-
Nov 17, 2021Great game in a beautiful cartoon style from the 30s. The game has excellent and varied bosses, a good soundtrack, interesting characters, levels. One of the best platform games ever.
-
Oct 24, 2021This game is pretty quality for being an indie game. Though it's pretty difficult.
-
Oct 7, 2021So great, so challenging, and so well-made. Cuphead is a joy to behold and I love it, even though it pisses me off. It's hard-but-fair, just be ready to replay everything a LOT to beat it!

Nintendo Force MagazineFeb 27, 2020Cuphead is such a masterclass in style and control that the few errant ink blots vanish in a Technicolor wonderland! [Issue #40 – July/August 2019, p. 30]

May 21, 2019Visually stunning and difficult in all the right ways, Cuphead is a testament to the importance of thought out game design. Every facet of the run and gun parts is built around giving the audience an experience unique to the videogame medium. Although this borrows quite heavily from a very specific era of animation history, its aesthetic goes beyond homage, coupling masterfully with gameplay that encourages mastery on every level. With some of the best designed boss fights this generation, a beautifully rich animation style, and impeccably fine-tuned controls, Cuphead stands out as not only one of the best indie titles on the Nintendo Switch, but one of strongest releases this generation, period.

May 13, 2019That Studio MDHR were able to make an aesthetic that’s nearly a century old seem fresh and new at the same time as they made an enjoyable game is just a bonus.
