Early on, you are often tasked with going to one side of a map and then after you clear the boss, fighting your way back to the other side. While I do like the secret areas and hidden loot, the game does have you doing quite a bit of backtracking. The best way to get this is via a walkthrough, because you have to do things that most people wouldn’t even think about doing. Finding some of these can be very tricky and there is even a “true ending” to be earned for those who work hard enough at it. There are hidden doors and secret paths to take in the game as well. Thankfully the game is fairly generous with saves so you don’t end up losing a ton of time in-between deaths unless you don’t save often.Įxploring is often rewarded with various items or health boosts to make the game easier for you. Sometimes these do feel cheap, but you can normally avoid them the second time around. Cave Story also has plenty of instadeath moments that you can easily fall for. You can also jump over them to avoid taking damage, but sometimes this results in your getting put in a worse position. So the idea is to use your various weapons to keep the distance and take out the enemies before they can hit you. Where they change it up is in the fact you lose levels as you get hit. There are various weapons and you can upgrade those weapons by gaining experience from the enemies you kill. The game will run most people 5-6 hours and a bit longer for the completionist.Ĭave Story is a 2D action platformer that reminds me of Mega Man. After you win the fight, you have to try and find Sue and see if you can find out what’s going on. A creature named Balrog is left behind, and you enter your first boss battle. The thing is they don’t know what Sue looks like and grab the wrong person and you are caught right in the middle. While you are talking with the people in the village, the Doctor sends some henchmen to grab Sue. Someone they refer to as “the Doctor” has been coming and taking residents of the village for some unknown reason, and now there are only six of them left (seven counting Sue). Once you do, you enter a village with characters talking about a girl named Sue. You are told nothing, and are just expected to go out and to find yourself a weapon. Cut to the player, another guy stuck in a cave. He is in a shelter, but he is not sure where he is. Cave Story+ starts off with a transmission with from a man named Kazuma asking for somebody named Sue.
