Игра расскажет историю 32-летнего клерка по имени Винсент, у которого
нет никаких амбиций и он не сильно думает о продолжении своего рода.
Плывет по течению и не сопротивляется, так сказать. Но однажды он
встречает очаровательную 22-летнюю девушку Кэтрин, с которой, судя по
сканам, у них закручивается роман. Вот только последствия этого романа
– отнюдь не дети и счастливая семейная жизнь. После встречи с Кэтрин
главного героя начинает преследовать один и тот же кошмар, в котором
ему приходится бежать по бесконечной лестнице, унося ноги от чего-то
«зловещего». И чтобы выбраться из своего кошмара – ему нужно добраться
до вершины «сонного» мира. При этом если у него не получится победить
этот кошмар, то он может умереть в реальном мире. Vincent has
two big problems. For one, he is caught in the middle of a love
triangle between his long time girlfriend, Katherine, and his new found
love, Catherine. Furthermore, he is also dealing with nightmares in
which he is constantly being chased by horrific monsters. Unfortunately
for him, it seems that other men are having the same nightmares and are
dying in their sleep.
The bizarre story should be able to keep you engrossed throughout Vincent’s trials and tribulations. Slick Presentation
Graphics
in CatherineThe story is helped greatly thanks to slick and stylish
presentation. This shouldn’t be a big surprise as the Catherine game is
being developed by the same team responsible for Shin Megami Tensei:
Persona 3 and 4. Thanks to the Gamebryo engine, the cel-shaded graphics
almost look as good as the animated scenes. The music is also filled
with many hip Japanese pop tracks. Catherine is very easy on the eyes
and ears. Unique Gameplay
Like the story, the gameplay for
the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 title is spilt into two parts. During
the daytime, Catherine is an adventure game where you can explore the
Stray Sheep Bar by chatting with the inhabitants and performing other
activities within its confines.
Things will get weird when
Vincent goes to sleep, however. With nothing but his boxers and
sheep-like horns, he must escape from the nightmarish monsters chasing
him. To do so, he must continue to climb the blocks of tower in order
reach the exit at the top. Along the way, Vincent has to pull, push and
set blocks to create climbable paths. You will see a very gruesome
death scene if the monster managed to get to Vincent before he could
escape.
The Catherine game has a unique mix of adventure and
puzzle elements. It is unlikely any other game currently on the
Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. More importantly, the gameplay is
engrossing and intense. Extra Modes
Gameplay in CatherineThe
main story is only a portion of the game. Catherine has numerous other
modes that will also tie-in to the core block-climbing gameplay. You
can play against another player or compete for high scores in the Babel
and Colosseum modes after you beat the story. Furthermore, the Stray
Sheep Bar is also home to a mini-game, Rapunzel, with dozens of more
block-climbing levels. High Replayability
Naturally, the
extra modes will extend the length of the game substantially. If that
wasn’t enough, Catherine also has multiple endings based on your
decisions you make throughout your Vincent’s story. Since you can skip
cut scenes, replaying the game shouldn’t be too much of a tedious task.
With so many post-game options available, Catherine should lasts for quite a long time even after you beat the game.
The
gaming industry is dominated by many sequels and copy-cat titles. The
Catherine game provides a refreshing change with its unique approach to
story, presentation and gameplay.
