Cuphead Reviews
Cuphead is a classic run and gun action game heavily focused on boss battles. Inspired by cartoons of the 1930s, the visuals and audio are painstakingly created with the same techniques of the era, i.e. traditional hand drawn cel animation, watercolor backgrounds, and original jazz recordings.

This game is really fun if you're a gamer that's looking for a short-yet-sweet, tough-yet-fun platformer/ run & gun game!

Don’t know about everyone else, but I personally enjoyed every second of Cuphead. Yeah, it was tough, especially the bosses on Extreme mode, but tough doesn’t mean impossible. It’s especially fun playing co-op, where it gets twice as hard, which makes it way more exciting (if you’ve got nerves of steel, of course). Either way, the game and its DLC are totally worth the time and money.

This is the number 1 game of all time on my list. Cuphead is the greatest game I've ever played because of the uniqueness and effort that went into making it. 10/10, would recommend. The goat.

Cuphead is a fun game but really hard, you'll have to get used to everything but after a while, the game goes by fast but hard.

cuphead is a 2017 run & gun game with a gorgeous aesthetic and an insanely hard difficulty. despite the difficulty potentially being rage-inducing, if you are able to get past that, the fun factor is also insanely high as well. the music and art style are exceptional and make it to where the game could be significantly worse in nearly every other regard and it wouldn't detract from the overall product because it's seriously that good on it's own.

People talk about this game like its trying to run a route on cooper dejean, while myles garrett rushes your qb, and tom brady sleeps with your wife. And it's just like moderately difficult.

Hey, it's a pretty entertaining game that has you trying to implement new strategies to beating the bosses, especially when doing S-Ranks. Not to mention the soundtracks are incredible bangers. This is my all-time favorite game indie game thus far.

The keybinding support in this game is not good. You can't bind controls to your mouse, and you can't rebind menu controls. I get that this is not a problem for most players, but it made the game feel really awful to play.
The gameplay itself looks really fun, but I can't really experience it because of the lack of accessibility features. :(

Absolute art. This game, its hand-drawn characters, amazing music that fits everything, outstanding game play and design. This game stands out, and without a doubt serves as a warm place in my heart.

Cuphead without a doubt is one of the best games I have ever played, this might even be my favorite game. Cuphead is really special to me since it uses the rubber hose animation style which makes me nostalgic about Tom and Jerry and Looney tunes (absolute cinema). I never get bored when I am playing this game. Does it hurt when I retry bosses for the nth time ? Sure as hell does but i am never bored
Cuphead for the most part is very hard but always fair (except 1 or 2 bosses). I have died and raged countless times but even dying is addictive in this game, This game has a certain charm to it which makes me keep coming back for more. I have finished both the main game and DLC on every mode and I STILL COME BACK TO IT FOR SOME REASON.
This game is a masterpiece and I really thank Studio MDHR for creating this game because this shit is better than cocaine not even kidding 10/10. Tons of weapons, combos of items, 2 different playstyles and unique bosses, it has everything I expect from a game
Please buy this game, ik i am glazing but this can really be worth your time. I still wish I could experience it again for the first time. The music, the animation, the art everything has been made with love and they improved it even more with the DLC
