If you're a fan of action RPGs and have a Netflix subscription, get ready to dive into Steel Paws, the latest creation from Yu Suzuki, the legendary game designer behind Virtua Fighter and Shenmue. Available exclusively on Android for Netflix subscribers, Steel Paws introduces you to a thrilling world where you can battle your way up a giant tower with an army of robotic cats at your side.
What’s the Story?
In Steel Paws, you step into the shoes of a purple-haired warrior clad in a mechanical suit, tasked with taking on waves of robotic enemies. Accompanying you are your trusty Buddy Robots—adorable yet fierce cat-like machines that serve as your most potent weapons. Together, you can execute devastating team attacks, launching these feline bots like missiles into your foes.
The adventure begins when an ancient tower suddenly emerges from the earth, causing shockwaves across the land. Drawn to a mysterious floating stone adorned with cryptic symbols, the hero ventures inside. However, upon entering, her robotic feline companions are captured by an eerie, disembodied voice. To rescue them, she must ascend the tower, floor by floor, battling an endless array of mechanical adversaries and unraveling the secrets that lie within.
Steel Paws Is a Sci-Fi Fantasy
The combat in Steel Paws is designed to be fluid and engaging, with a combo system that rewards well-timed strikes and strategic use of special moves. Every attack from your robotic cat companions is punctuated with a mighty meow, adding a touch of charm to the intense battles.
To keep the gameplay fair and enjoyable, Steel Paws offers checkpoints halfway through each stage, so you won't need to restart from the beginning if you fall in battle. You can also adjust the difficulty to match your skill level.
Incorporating roguelike elements, Steel Paws ensures that every replay of a stage feels fresh. Enemy placements, resources, and map layouts change each time, keeping you on your toes. The game's environments also vary, with unique hazards like shifting sands or slippery ice adding to the challenge.
At its heart, Steel Paws is all about fast-paced melee combat. If you're a Netflix subscriber, you can experience this thrilling sci-fi fantasy by downloading it from the Google Play Store.
