It’s the simple things that matter here and they make the experience an extremely enjoyable one. As with the first game though everything is uncomplicated, no-nonsense and is delightful. Thankfully It Is Still Cat QuestĪnyone who has played the original Cat Quest knows what they will be up against here, simple quests, dungeon crawling and loot collecting. The beautiful simplicity is one of the main reasons why I love it – there are no sprawling menus to navigate, no over-elaborate game systems to get to grips with it’s all straightforward and sometimes you need that in a game. I slid straight back into the formula without hesitation and it’s a game you could play it for a few hours, leave it for a few months and not be lost as to where you are. It’s light, it’s breezy and in a world of over-complicated, boggy role-playing games its a breath of fresh air. The combat has been improved and the game is better for it.Įven with a fresh coat of paint, new bells, whistles and co-op, the core of what made the first game amazing is intact. Its everything that made the first game great with a few shiny new baubles attached. I love what has been done here, stray too far from what made the first game great and you will lose its magic but enough has been added to make it feel fresh again. You can now upgrade your weapons and armour and the game includes all-new weapons, spells, enemies and a much larger map split into two continents. There are ranged weapons now, so you can equip lutes and wands to attack from afar. It’s all very cliché but I enjoyed the story and as with most of this game, it did make me smile, it didn’t not bog me down and just let me get on with it.Īpart from the addition of co-op, there are a few other small changes to Cat Quest II. Since then a great, ancient evil has corrupted the two kings and it is your job to quell this resurgent foe and reunite the kingdoms of cat and dog. In Cat Quest II you are tasked with trying to re-assemble the Kingsblade, an ancient weapon that was shattered many years ago as it was deemed too powerful to wield. It is, however, light-hearted, fun and still quite funny. Story-wise, as with the first title, it’s no Tolkien. Cat Quest II Review Developer The Gentle Bros Is Not Kitten Around Fast forward two years and we now have Cat Quest II, it will not, however, have the surprise effect the first game benefitted from and players expectations will be high. What was left was funny, heart-warming and extremely beautiful. Cat Quest came from nowhere and really peeled back all the fluff that bloats modern-day RPGs. Back in 2017, I was surprisingly wowed by a small cutesy RPG starring a cat.
