  • If you want to have a lovely gaming experience where you get fluffy kitties for free, plug Animal Crossing back into your 3DS; however, If you want to yell, spit, grow chest hair and really EARN your fluffy kitties, buy Scram Kitty and His Rail Buddies, as the game is surprisingly addictive as it is rage inducing and fun all at the same time.

  • The audio presentation peaks with the strong sound effects for gunfire, but falters with a forgettable soundtrack. The main game is quite memorable though thanks to the concept being so different, and it’s worth checking out for most retro-loving fans — it’s just not something that’s likely to appeal to many beyond that fanbase.

    Come to terms with its idiosyncrasies and you’ll find a unique and wonderfully characterful action game; it’s well worth suffering those early scratches for the moments where it really begins to purr.

  • While it's probably not a top tier download title, Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails is still an entertaining and fun game, with big, challenging levels and have plenty to do. Being able to go to pretty much any level you want, as well as not necessarily having to save all cats in one go are nice positives, but because of several unfair situations, some awkward control setup issues and one instance where we got stuck, we would warn prospective buyers to be slightly cautious.

    As fun as it is tough and cute to boot, there's nothing else quite like Scram Kitty And His Buddy On Rails on Wii U, or anywhere else, for that matter.

  • Scram Kitty and His Buddy On Rails is a wonderfully idiosyncratic creation that, despite its smorgasbord of influences, feels like nothing else. It's also a game that ignores current design fashions: there is no overarching list of achievements, there are no sideshow systems or alternative stages to upset its rhythms, no adornments to distract from the core task.

  • Scram Kitty es un juego que respeta la inteligencia del jugador, pero le cuesta encontrar un equilibrio entre el desafío y la accesibilidad.

  • Gracias a lo original y desafiante de su propuesta de juego, Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails tiene la capacidad suficiente como para ganarse el aprecio de todos aquellos jugadores adictos a los arcades de acción y plataformas propios de la vieja escuela. Difícil y adictivo como pocos, este rescate gatuno os mantendrá horas pegados a vuestras Wii U.

  • A pesar de lo confuso que pueda parecer, Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails es uno de esos juegos que se explican solos gracias a un gran diseño, y que, encima, es difícil, divertido, adictivo y original, y que mezcla plataformas y disparos como ninguno. Sin duda, una propuesta a tener en cuenta.

Take control of Buddy, a rail-riding, laser-shooting young hero on a perilous quest to rescue his pet cat, Scram Kitty! With a unique control system that allows for full 360 degree platforming action and thrilling 2D shooting, Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails will see you glide along glowing rails, leap across chasms and create arcing streams of shots as you rid each stage of its rodent aggressors and rescue all the cats imprisoned within. With frenetic gameplay viewed from above and a striking blend of 2D and 3D graphics, Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails is a shoot-em-up platform game with a character all of its own.
