The game was absolutely packed to the brim with replayability as each playthrough offered more chances to explore the world with a different perspective and a newfound goal.įor 7 years fans of the game have been wondering if they’d seen the last of Catherine and in June of 2018 their questions had been answered with the reveal of Catherine: Full Body.Īlthough Catherine: Full Body is not a direct sequel to the game it does keep the entire previous game intact with several new features including the new romantic choice for Vincent, Rin. Players will also be rewarded for their interaction with either of the two with stuff like an old couple photo from Katherine or a spicy lewd image from Catherine.Īll pieces of this complex puzzle reach a perfect boiling point when all interactions, all challenges, and all situational problem solving eventually helps you reach one of eight endings. You get to decide how long you get to stay in the bar and the game rewards you right back with more opportunities at making moral decisions. The text system in the game compliments this idea in the bar segments in the game as both will text you every night and it is up to the player to decide whether to ghost them or reply with something nice or something mean. The farther you lean towards on the scale the more fond you will grow of said character. Players also control the entire outcome of the story by answering questions pertaining to relationships with the goal of helping Vincent choose between Catherine and Katherine. It is then revealed that several individuals are dying from the same nightmare that is plaguing those around Vincent including himself and the only way not to die is to climb the tower of blocks every night until you eventually wake up.

With Catherine: Full Body I was completely blindsided by how different the game can be by adding just one new choice, Rin. ![]() When I first played Catherine on Xbox 360 back in 2012 it opened my eyes to ATLUS and more importantly to a whole new way of exploring interactivity in a fictional game. Like most wines the sweetest ones are made for those who wait for a long time and boy howdy did I wait for Catherine: Full Body. ![]()
