"Beat them up" is back to life!

This game is great!

I never though about myself as an metroidvania fan. But I liked the previous game, and decided to give Catmaze a chance. Believe me, it worth it.
So what we got in here?
1. Cute visuals. The world is pretty big, but every location is incredibly detailed and unique.
2. The story is great - I don't know how describe it without any spoilers, but this game have a thought-out plot with many different characters. Each on of them have a unique problem and motivation.
3. Map in here is really huge and game rewards exploration, you can miss so many powerful items and familiars running from one question mark to another. But if you explore the world of Catmaze - you'll find many goodies and new characters.
4. Fight system is really good. Main character use power of familiars - and there are 12 of them in the game. At the very begining most of them can seem useless, but later you began to think about your strategy like "hm, this monster is in the ground, so I better to use a spider. But before that I should hit another one with a fireball and then to summon a protective hedgehogs..."
5. Level difficulty is not too high, but an old-school system of saving on checkpoints (they are marked on the map) bring so many adrenaline to the gameplay. There is no auto-saving system in the game so it's only up to the player how many time he will spend on running from one save-point to another.

All in all, I can recomend this game for those who wants to read a good story and doesn't expect the game to lead them with hints till the very end.

First opinion is Soundtrack is awsome! I am not found of puzls but this game really caught me.
