    Big fan of the original Catherine game, regardless of what you may or may not think of the addition of Rin, it changes up the flow and it creates a different narrative with the same classic puzzle game play. Some quality of life updates and a third path to pursue, would definitely call this the definitive edition of Catherine. Buy if you want to support Atlus and/or want more Catherine.

    Loved the first Catherine on the Xbox and now we get the full experience with all the dlcs included. Handheld mode makes this game 10x better for me. It is truly an amazing game filled with iconic moments and addicting gameplay. Though it may be not for everyone, its well worth playing, at least one time.

El sistema de puzzles es original y la toma de decisiones hacía los diferentes finales es la típica de SMT. Sin embargo tiene sus puntos negativos. Primero es el tema de la rejugabilidad: el juego presenta varios modos y dificultades que aumentan la rejugabilidad, factor importante dados los múltiples finales y las diferentes decisiones que podemos tomar durante la partida que decidirán también el destino de los secundarios, pero aún así, después de dos o tres partidas se hace pesado y acabaras saltándote los niveles así como la historia (cosa que puedes hacer si ya los completaste en ese modo de dificultad. Como segunda cosa, la variedad de desafíos en los niveles podría haber sido algo mayor y no estar solo artificialmente aumentada con el minijuego del bar (cuya música acabaras odiando si quieres completarlo).… Expand

    the game is everything you want from an Atlus game: style, intrigue and characters you indulge with, puzzle game play is fun, if not a bit simplistic, but its clearly not the focus of the game: feels a lot like an old novela-style game with all the modern twists and re-entries

    the new additions were well intertwined in the old story to not disrupt the original game too much, but it does feel a bit out of place, considering the villains plot does not account for said new path, which makes it starkly contrasted with the other options

    third character addition overall do was good, and took me by suprise on the first playthrough, so immidiately sat down for a second playthrough for that path

    Overall a really good game for a short and multiple playthrough puzzle/story game which oozes style and vibes still today    … Expand

    Catherine: Full Body maintains an innovative gaming experience. It mixes 2 genres that usually don´t get along to make something fun. It´s a challenging game but it completely worth the trying.

    Eh. Cutscenes are way too long and it definitely lost me by the end with too many plot twists but for switch it's not a bad looking game. Puzzle segments are fun but few and far between and the characters are boring at best and at times insufferable. I'm sure it's better with different endings but I really don't care enough about the story to replay. Ok for 20$ but imo outrageous for 60$.Eh.

    Wow this is bad and I have no idea where the high review scores are coming from. Gameplay is broken into visual novel and horror puzzle game but neither are very entertaining. Puzzles are very hard on normal and visual novel has maybe only 6 questions that impact the story so you are in rails almost all of it. It is very Japanese anime and don’t be fooled by what is implied in the screen shots.

I do not understand why that need to forcefully put characters from this community everywhere, especially when they do not fit well into the story, the message that the game wants to give is applauded, but it is not necessary that they give us classes of tolerance. It seems incomprehensible to me.
    Despite this, it is a game that I recommend, although if you want a better experience, play the original Catherine game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Catherine fullbody é um game puzzle em que você precisa puxar e empurrar blocos para escalar até o topo da fase e ganhar o jogo.

    Catherine fullbody é um remake do game original (lançado em 2011). E eu tive o prazer de jogar as duas versões. A versão de 2011 no xbox 360 e a versão "fullbody" no nintendo switch.

    Todos os reviews desse canal são de jogos que foram jogados até o fim

    Gráficos - Se comparado a versão de nintendo switch com a versão de xbox 360 nada mudou. E sinceramente, nem precisava. O game trás um ambiente "anime" com cutcenes em versão anime. A ambientação do game casa muito bem com os gráficos e realmente não teria o que melhorar nesse ponto.

    Jogabilidade e puzzles - Os puzzles ganharam uma versão nova "remix" tanto nos sonhos do vincent quanto no fliperama rapunzel. Nela você consegue puxar mais de um bloco por vez (por exemplo blocos grandes em formato de T). Isso trouxe uma dinâmica completamente diferente para o game, sendo necessário uma abordagem diferente da versão clássica. E se você não quiser ver a versão nova, você pode jogar a versão clássica, puxando um bloco por vez para resolver seus problemas de sono. De mais a jogabilidade continua igual, você anda mais rápido quanto mais beber na noite anterior e tudo que a versão clássica já oferecia - escalar os blocos, puxar, empurrar e etc.

    História - A cereja do bolo de Catherine. A história ganhou elementos novos, dentre eles uma terceira "qaterine" que aparece nos primeiros minutos do game. A mesma história que fez tanto sucesso anteriormente continua com pequenas reformulações (e alguns finais novos). Vicente continua tendo seu marcador "azul e vermelho" e com base nesse marcador o final da história vai ser diferente. Tem algumas perguntas no confessionário que podem mudar completamente o final, podendo apresentar os finais da "rin".

    A história continua sensacional, eu joguei tudo que dava pra jogar. Fiz todos os finais possíveis e mesmo sabendo alguns deles, todos me agradaram muito.

    Multiplayer (eu não lembro se a versão de 2011 tinha, mas vou contar como se fosse algo novo) - temos uma versão multiplayer da torre "babel" que você passa por 4 fases que mudam a cada dia e tem requisitos a serem cumpridos para pontuar, uma versão coop que pode ser jogada local (2 players) para se escalar a torre e uma versão PVP. Em todas as versões você pode escolher entre vários personagens jogáveis (até o boss, e o joker de persona).

    Conclusão - Catherine é uma obra-prima do mundo dos games, recomendo que qualquer pessoa jogue. A versão fullbody teve elementos novos extremamente surpreendentes que levam a uma experiência completamente diferente. Alguns finais foram reformulados e são tão bons quanto os anteriores. É o primeiro game desse canal que dou 10/10.    … Expand

    Due to the fact the this game even remotely looks good on the switch, I have to say that atlas has been slaking because clearly Persona 5 uses the same engine as Catherine. Other wise this is a perfect puzzle game with a great twist in the middle of its story. A must play for switch and ps4 owners.

I honestly just mainly wish this game was longer because I forgot how short it is and the day after it came in the mail I ended up beating it. Which is fine because honestly any longer this game would probably too dragged out. But there are 12 other endings and I do look forward replaying it at some point just to get the other true endings that exist. Overall, I highly recommend this game to anyone whole likes puzzle platforming or anime or both this is perfect. Or a fan of other Atlus games, this one is another gem.… Expand

It feels very infuriating, especially when the story is that great - it feels like the puzzles are just a 20-40 minute cooldown on it; in addition to the Diva popping out and taking you out of the moment, lots of ways the game delays / prolongs the stories. I think the game/main story is enhanced by the other people's dialogue but often is unrelated - just like irl. I'd much prefer watching a playthrough of a full route and any dialogue from that character/relating to that "girl" than playing it out. Would easily be a 9-10 if that was a thing.

    Catherine Full Body is an excellent game, regardless of your platform. The story is excellent and takes different directions and places according to the player's decisions. The puzzle is initially simple, but it becomes challenging and addictive as you progress through the game. This is not only a classic of Atlus, but also one of their best titles and it certainly deserves more prominence.

    Catherine: Full Body is about the prices people are willing to pay, in more ways than one. In terms of story, we have to see what sorts of sacrifices Vincent is willing to make to accommodate his comfort, bridge gaps with people around him, and survive. With the port, we’re seeing what had to be done to get it working. If that means a little bit of blurriness and feeling like you might be due for a new prescription, especially in handheld mode, so be it.
