Great game

Fun game with a great story and replayability. If you've already played the original before or just want to experience the story, there's a "safety" difficulty and an "autoplay" option where the puzzle parts are played for you (but you can stop the autoplay mid-way at any point). The new route that the Full Body version adds (the character Rin) is great, and I honestly recommend playing that route first no matter whether you've played the original or are completely a new player. It feels like a fuller experience.

The Caseee

The metal case is soo nice. Another thing for me to horde in my room lol

The Nirvana of Puzzle/Dating Sims

Catherine is the absolute pinnacle of greatness when it comes to dating and puzzle sims in modern gaming. The story is told through Vincent Brooks, a young man who suffers from re-occurring nightmares while being torn between his soon-to-be wife Katherine and a new, spontaneous potential fling, also named Catherine(except with a ‘C’). The game is structured into ‘days’, and is organized into two main parts: Story and Puzzle. The story elements consist of Vincent interacting with his friends at a local bar(called The Stray Sheep), and the puzzle elements occur within Vincent’s nightmares after he heads home and goes to sleep. The puzzles start off simple enough, but eventually get quite insane, where you will frequently have to juggle between climbing, dodging and block manipulation, while racing to the top of various deadly towers that shape your nightmares. Without spoiling anything, the game essentially takes you down a long road of self reflection, doubt and confusion, where Vincent fights a constant struggle that often puts him between his current lover and potential prospects. Never before have I ever been so engrossed in the storyline of a video game as I have with Catherine, and I urge any potential anime/puzzle fans to give this game a try, as it’s nothing like you have ever played before. There are an abundance of changes in the Full Body Edition. Here is a list: 1. A new love interest, Rin, has been added as well as a major plot line that can be accessed from Day 6 3. There are two new patrons to speak with at the Stray Sheep(Roderick and Abul) 4. 20 new animated cutscenes 5. 500 stages, twice the amount from the original release 6. New Babel and Colosseum Stages 7. Improved camera control 8. Two new modes: ‘Original’ and ‘Arranged’ 9. New difficulty options
