A game about a cat on the subway
Subway Story : Deluxe Edition is a free game for mobile devices in which the player takes on the role of a cat that spends its time in the subway. The cat must listen to stories it overhears from the various people passing through, learning the language in the process.
Finding games to compare this game to directly is problematic, as there aren’t many games like it. Some close examples include the likes of Doraemon Story of Seasons and YOU and ME and HER: A Love Story. This is due to the light gameplay and heavy reliance on the story.
Take control of a cat
In Subway Story : Deluxe Edition, the player takes control of a cute cat who spends its time in the subway. During its time in the subway, it encounters a wide range of people passing through and overhears many conversations between travelers.
The player can establish relationships with the people they are listening to, as well as learn the stories of dozens of characters.
An interactive story-based experience
The gameplay elements included in Subway Story : Deluxe Edition are somewhat thin, with the game’s strength laying in storytelling. Players do have something to do, however, such as upgrade their abilities, move from station to station, and form relationships with non-player characters.
A cute story game
For players who are looking for a peaceful gaming experience that involves more storytelling than actual gameplay, Subway Story : Deluxe Edition could be just the game. For players looking for more involvement, this game may prove to be too hands-off.
