![]() Some may say, "why buy it if I can lay the freeware version for free". It may sound expensive at 1200 Wii points ($12) but considering all the content in it it is well worth it. I'd say it will probably take around 5-10 hours your first time through. I had fun with it anyway, as it's a game that should be revisited a few times if not more. Curly Brace mode is a bit disappointing, as the only difference between it and the normal story mode is that your character looks different and there's a few changes to the dialog and some extra dialog. ![]() I beleive these extra modes are unlocked once you've beat the game (any ending) once but I could be wrong. You can go through a boss rush mode, where you try to beat all the bosses as fast as possible, a mode where you can try to speed run through the final secret level, and a mode where you can play through the story as Curly Brace (who is still cute btw). ![]() The game has a good collection of extras as well. I really like how they used the leveling system with the weapons.You can gain levels by collecting these gold triangles that enemies drop, however if you get hurt not only do you lose health, but weapon experience as well. There are some pretty epic boss fights too. The weapons, the upgrades, and just exploring the world and fighting the enemies are all very satisfying. Oh yeah, before I forget, One of my new favorite Video game characters is Curly Brace (She's so cute!). I felt a bit remorseful if something bad happened and very happy when things worked out well for them. I also found myself caring about the characters. You wouldn't think it would be all that great, being made in reference to the retro days, but it is a lot more involving than most of the classics, not to mention quiet a bit darker. Believe it or not, it is actually kinda good. It could just be me, or it could be some sort of effect from the game but I actually started to get more determined than frustrated. Through all this I thought that I would get really frustrated, and I did, to an extent. Several enemies and obstacles, and a few boss fights with NO HEALING BLOCKS OR SAVES. It's the final secret level that takes the cake though. First you have to go through the game making certain requirements that make things a bit harder. Afterward though, I found out that there was an even better ending. that wasn't THAT bad", I said the same thing. If you make it through the normal ending (There are 3 BTW, bad, normal, secret) you might say to yourself "hmm. Another positive is that unlike in most games today the difficulty is up there. I've found myself humming the tunes to myself many times. Second, the musical score is absolutely fantastic. yes, they are in the old NES style, however the way they used the colors and designs really are interesting. First off, the graphics are what drew me in. First I don't usually give out lenient scores like this but I enjoyed Cave Story so much that I almost feel obligated to give it a 10.
