Yo Ho Yo Ho the pirate...oh wait, sorry wrong game
Welcome to the sea, the vast blue oceans where dangerous things lurk and items that are either a blessing or a curse. In this case probably more of a curse...meaning we are turned into a rat...
Today we are looking at Curse of the Sea Rats.
Summary
Embark on the epic journey of four prisoners of the British empire, transformed into rats by the notorious pirate witch, Flora Burn. To regain their human bodies, they will have to fight dangerous bosses, uncover the secrets of the vast Irish coast, and ultimately capture the witch who cursed them.
My Experience:
Hand Drawn Artist, I have to say, gets better every time because I love all the visuals and levels; each character has their backstory, but there is something slightly amiss with this game, and that is...sadly, the gameplay feels like its missing something to make it different from others abit.
Not saying it's particularly bad, but it needs to be worked on more. Also, to point out that this game focuses heavily on Co-Op playability while certain things make it a bit frustrating to play besides the one-shot kill chickens or having a shallow health bar.
