Release Date: November 22, 2011
Refreshed version of the heat adopted metroidvanii from 2004. In addition to the new graphics and soundtrack, the title boasts three different levels of difficulty. However, the gameplay has remained unchanged, so the fun is still about exploring vast levels, jumping on platforms and fighting with smaller and larger ers of the crazy Doctor.
Cave Story+ is a refreshed version of Cave Story - a warmly-received metroidvania game, which debuted in 2004 on PCs, to eventually see a release on Nintendo consoles.
As in the original, in Cave Story+ the player takes on the role of Quote, who wakes up with amnesia on a large flying island. The protagonist quickly finds a village inhabited by the so-called Mimigas - peaceful, rabbit-like creatures harassed by the mad Doctor, and our characters become the creatures' last hope. The hero embarks on a dangerous journey to confront the mad scientist and his henchmen.
The action in Cave Story+ is shown on the side. The gamplay revolves around crossing vast labyrinth-like levels, jumping on platforms and avoiding countless obstacles and traps, and combat. Among the adversaries there are both smaller ones, not too dangerous, as well as over twenty powerful bosses. In the clashes we use ten types of weapons, which can be further improved as we make progress. However, encounters with NPCs help us to find useful tips.
Cave Story+ stands out from the original mainly due to three different difficulty levels and six new game modes. The visuals have also been improved (although it is still possible to switch to their original version) and an interesting option has been implemented, thanks to which the visuals change depending on the prevailing period of the year (Halloween, Christmas). Moreover, a new soundtrack has been composed - apart from classic, chiptune's music, we can be accompanied by refreshed versions of well-known songs, as well as completely new sounds.

Gamers Heroes: 8 / 10
Cave Story+ is a game most people will have played in one form or another. If you haven't and you are looking for a decent Mega Man fix, then Cave Story+ is for you.
SmashPad: 3.5 / 5 by Jordan Elek
In order to sell me on a new version of Cave Story in 2017, I needed to see a significant amount of new content—new weapons, new areas, new playable characters, new choices. Without any of those things, Cave Story+ is a short, simple, fun experience that doesn’t quite live up to the standard set by similar games in the time since Cave Story originally released.
GearNuke: 9 / 10 by Khurram Imtiaz
Cave Story+ is arguably one of the best metroidvania game and despite having released years ago, it still holds up very well even today.
