It will probably take you a good dozen of tries to get past some enemies until you can eventually go up against the final boss and win your soul back.Īside from the boss-featuring levels, there are also much less challenging run and gun locations where you simply need to get to the end of the level collecting gold coins. So you’ll have to stay focus every second of the game and watch everything that happens on the screen very closely. Each boss has their own means of killing you, with randomized attack to make their moves hard to predict. The bosses vary from aggressive veggies shooting dirt and sprouts to fat clowns blowing up balloon monsters to go for you. There are a total of 28 levels, each featuring an insanely tough boss to beat.
To do that, you will travel across a wide variety of crazy locations with platforming challenges and intense boss fights. But, surely, he lost and now, to avoid a sad outcome, he has to collect the souls of other unfortunate creatures who ran into debt with the Devil.
Excited by the winning streak, he agreed to play with the Devil himself betting his soul against all of his treasures. This time, he ended up in a diabolic casino where he won a hefty sum of money. So, who is this Cuphead? As the story goes, we play for a jolly fellow with a china mug in place of his head who is always up for something. If you aren’t afraid of challenges and have a couple of spare controls in store, welcome to this freaky virtual adventure! Despite its cute appearance, the game is terribly hard, even on early levels.
But the most fascinating part is still waiting ahead. Remember the good old cartoons from the 30’s? Those huge heads, wide eyes and fidgety moves accompanied by a brisk jazz soundtrack? The fashion for vintage animation is back and Cuphead is the game that takes it to a brand new level! With every frame hand-drawn with great precision and fondness for the original style of the epoch, you can get an amazing aesthetic experience simply by looking at the screen.
