If you're a fan of action RPGs and have a Netflix subscription, you're in for a treat with Steel Paws, the latest game from the legendary Yu Suzuki, known for creating Virtua Fighter and Shenmue. This Android-exclusive title lets you take on the role of a purple-haired warrior in a mechanical suit, fighting your way up a giant tower with an army of battle-ready robot cats.
In Steel Paws, you step into the shoes of a warrior drawn to an ancient tower that suddenly erupts from the ground. The tower's mysterious floating stone, adorned with cryptic markings, beckons you inside. However, upon entering, your robotic feline companions, known as Buddy Robots, are immediately captured. A chilling, unseen voice challenges you to fight your way to the top of the tower to rescue your furry friends. As you ascend, floor by floor, you'll battle an army of mechanical enemies and unravel the tower's hidden mysteries.
The gameplay in Steel Paws revolves around a fluid and engaging combo system that rewards well-timed strikes and strategic use of special moves. Your robotic cat companions, with their mighty meows, add a unique flair to the combat. The game provides checkpoints midway through each stage, ensuring you don't have to start over from the beginning if you're defeated. You can also adjust the difficulty to suit your playstyle.
Adding to the excitement, Steel Paws incorporates roguelike elements, meaning each replay of a stage brings changes in enemy placement, resources, and map layouts. The environments are dynamic, with levels featuring unique hazards such as shifting sands or slippery ice, keeping the gameplay fresh and challenging.
At its heart, Steel Paws is all about fast-paced melee combat. If you're a Netflix subscriber, you can dive into this thrilling sci-fi fantasy adventure on the Google Play Store.
