Cave Story is a story about a race of rabbit like creatures called Mimigas who live underground on an island that happens to float in the sky. You play as a robot who was created by the humans who live on the surface. You're a robot who happens to have amnesia. Yeah...that's only the first of a bunch of 'say what?' type moments. That's actually part of the charm of the story. It's strange and quirky and funny. You'll stop questioning it early on. You can only wonder why there is a mad doctor who has a servant dogging you throughout the game who happens to look like a toaster for so long before going insane. Along the way you'll discover what the mad doctor's plans are and what you'll need to do about them and maybe find out who or what you are. You'll come across colorful characters who both help and hinder you along the way. It's full of cliches, but it's just off enough, and written well enough as to be fun. I was actually surprised by how much events moved me. It's a surprising game all around.
Next time should be the final impressions of Cave Story.
