Cuphead is a journey of hardships and amazement from start to finish. You play as Cuphead (and Mugman as player two) who is tasked with gathering soul contracts for the devil after losing his own soul in a bet. Each contract is earned in the form of a scripted and beautifully animated boss fight. The old-timey music compliments each boss wonderfully.

Taking on Cuphead is challenging, but as you learn and beat each boss you'll be left with a strong sense of having achieved something that you worked towards. Not that you need to learn the fights to beat the game, as attacks are telegraphed and the controls are snappy. A great player could in theory beat the game without dying once.
