Yu Suzuki Unveils New Android Game: Steel Paws

Steel Paws, the latest action RPG exclusive to Netflix subscribers on Android, has been crafted by the legendary game designer Yu Suzuki, known for his work on Virtua Fighter and Shenmue. In this thrilling adventure, you take on the role of a purple-haired warrior clad in a mechanical suit, teaming up with an army of battle-ready robot cats to conquer a towering structure filled with robotic adversaries.

What’s the Story?

The narrative begins with an ancient tower suddenly erupting from the earth, sending shockwaves across the world. Intrigued by a floating stone adorned with enigmatic symbols, your hero enters the tower, only to have her robotic feline companions swiftly captured by an unseen, ominous voice. The challenge is set: to reclaim your furry friends, you must ascend the tower, battling through floors of mechanical foes and unraveling the tower's deep-seated mysteries.

Steel Paws Is a Sci-Fi Fantasy

The game's combat system is designed to be fluid and engaging, rewarding players for well-timed strikes and strategic use of special moves. Your robotic cat companions, known as Buddy Robots, not only assist in battle but also unleash a mighty meow with every attack, adding a unique flair to the combat experience. Checkpoints are strategically placed midway through each stage, allowing you to resume your ascent without starting over if you fall in battle. Additionally, you can adjust the difficulty to suit your skill level.

Steel Paws incorporates roguelike elements, ensuring that each replay of a stage offers a fresh challenge. Enemy placements, resources, and map layouts change, and different levels introduce unique environmental hazards such as shifting sands or slippery ice. At its heart, the game emphasizes fast-paced melee combat, making it a must-try for Netflix subscribers available on the Google Play Store.
