Cat Quest II is essentially a straight-up action RPG with no real surprises to offer. In terms of gameplay, things are much more straightforward. This game makes every effort to ensure that encounters are entertaining and characters are as compelling as possible – and that goes a long way. One side plot has you tracking down an invisibility cloak from a certain mage called Furindelmeow, which sounds suspiciously like an antagonist from the newer outings from the magical mind of J.K. The humour isn’t limited to puns, as the game makes various subtle nods to modern pop culture. It certainly spices things up and makes what would otherwise be a relatively cookie-cutter fantasy plotline much more charming. And yet, it never feels forced or as if the developers are going too far the whole thing is a perfect match for the vibe and feeling that they're going for. If you're the type to tire of such things rather quickly, you’re going to have a bad time here. Character conversations are littered with constant wordplays the developers have had fun when naming each character and even the overworld is littered with places that sound distinctly cat-like. Literally everything that can possibly be made into a pun is going to fall victim at some point during your adventure. Right from the get-go, Cat Quest II wastes absolutely no opportunity to insert cat-related puns. This is to its credit, as it is the game’s sense of humour which carries the whole thing along. We won’t spoil the plot, but this requires players to search the world gathering up pieces of a certain something whilst also having time to explore and raid lots of dungeons along the way.Īs you might expect after reading the above, Cat Quest II is not a game that takes itself too seriously. Cats and dogs living together might have been unthinkable for the Ghostbusters, but that is very much the endgame here. You play as the legendary cat and dog kings of old, your quest being to prevent war between the cat kingdom of Felingard and the advancing dog armies of the Lupus Empire.
The cats and dogs are at war – nothing new there, except they’ve got big weapons and are capturing territory. Is it the epic feline adventure we’ve been waiting for, or a dog’s dinner? Let’s take a look.ĭespite being the sequel to the original Cat Quest, the story in this one is largely separate. It’s raining cats and dogs in this one, with plenty of feline and canine companions to greet you. The cats are back! It hasn’t been long since the first feline adventure hit the Switch, yet they’re already back with a second outing.
