Your girlfriend wants to get engaged, you love her, but you're not sure whether to make a commitment so serious: it is a classic. It happens less frequently that leads you in my arms a little blonde with eyes that promise follies and fabulous body. And luckily for boys, never happens that the temptation blonde is dressed up with nightmares of hell are able to give you the most horrible of deaths. Welcome to Catherine , in stores from February 10 (PS3 and Xbox 360), a curious mixture of puzzle-like adventure with adult themes and a sprinkling of eros.

This is the case of putting the emphasis on the word puzzle just because these are actually the main part of the game, while the trailer link all sull'avvenenza of the two protagonists, the earnest Katherine and Catherine carefree. Here, for example, pictures of E3 2011:

The same goes for many other promotional videos, which in some cases invent shots capable of turning into jelly the spine of anyone:

Game in hand, then, it turns out that there is less erotic than announced, but fortunately the cunning marketing does not turn into a dud: the animated cut scenes are excellent and puzzle sections, in which you must climb treacherous towers of cubic blocks, are stimulants. Moreover, the love triangle is well narrated and open to different and credible end.

Convince the combination a little less 'forced between such different genres, and the fact that the long climbing towers are a bit' monotonous and sometimes even at the risk of frustration.

Messi strengths and weaknesses in the balance, Catherine remains a title does not fully succeeded, but original and interesting, as long as the idea of puzzle / platform does not tempt you as a mother-in-law.
