Reviewing this game without the DLC included. Cuphead has an incredible design and unique style that definitely makes it stand out. Really enjoyable and crisp movement, fun music which fits the hand-drawn animation style. I can only imagine how much work and love went into this game. However, I have some problems that will not allow me to rate this game 5/5 stars. First of all, I believe this game is not as hard as it could be. Don't get me wrong, it is not an easy game, but I don't think my skills are much above average, and I beat the whole game in 8 hours. I think more drawn out battles with more complex bosses would do the trick for me, but I accept the fact that maybe I am asking for too much content. My second problem with the game is the foreground, which on multiple occasions blocked my view and forced me to take damage, which I think is inexcusable. This problem also happened in the DLC, but only on one occasion. Still, I am a little disappointed that Studio MDHR didn't address this problem in the DLC, almost 5 years later.

Played this right after I finished Far Cry 4, because I had heard of the success of this game and I really enjoyed playing Far Cry 4. This game surpasses it's sequel in every way. Really enjoyable gameplay loop, amazing antagonist, even more so than FC4. I thoroughly enjoyed almost every part of this game and cannot recommend it enough.

I really love playing mystery games and I also love the worldbuilding in the games I play. The Forgotten City does both of these things excellently. Sure, some Endings are more satisfying and others are more obscure, but the feeling this game gave me is really memorable. If these two factors are something you look for in the games you play, I blindly recommend The Forgotten City.

I got this game on PS4, but bought it again on a Steam Sale since I don't own the PS4 anymore. This is the only game I have done this for, and for a good reason. I really enjoy this game's atmosphere, combat and movement. The worldbuilding isn't really unique but it is executed well in my opinion. The side quests are just as interesting as the main quest line and it really kept me coming back for more. The hour count I log is only from steam, so the true playtime of this game for me was probably double that.
