Catherine Preview

Tag: Microsoft, Preview, Sony

Catherine is a unique puzzle game developed by Japanese studio; Atlus. The themes of the game are quite unorthodox and mature, considering what players are usually accustomed to. When Vincent (the protagonist) is being pressured to marry his girlfriend, his life turns complicated. To make matters worse, he wakes up with another woman. Worried his girlfriend will discover his unfaithful act, he is constantly having nightmares.

Throughout the game you'll switch between a bar and Vincent's nightmares. In the bar you can drink with a couple of friends or chat with people to progress the plot. In his nightmares the core gameplay mechanics kick in. Here the player is presented with blocks that can be pushed and pulled, to reach the top of the tower block. Certain blocks have attributes such as spikes or bombs for increasing difficulty. Epic but deranged bosses are another aspect to consider, as your climbing the tower.

If you're tired of the usual run and gun title then step into the shoes of Vincent Brooks, on 10th February 2012. When Catherine is released on PS3 and Xbox 360.
