Gato Roboto Reviews
A venerable template comes alive in this beautifully compact adventure.
Gato Roboto is a refreshingly simple take on the Metroidvania formula. It's not going to impress everyone, but if you're just looking for solid side-scrolling action and a pretty cute cat, it won't disappoint.
What matters is that taking control of Kiki the cat is an absolute joy, and the sheer amount of variety packed into the game’s short running time should be applauded. If you like Metroidvanias, or cats, get Gato Roboto bought.
If you want a simple Metroidvania adventure that you can complete in 1 or 2 gaming sessions then Gato Roboto is the cat's pajamas.
Gato Roboto is everything you'd expect from a Metroidvania and, importantly, everything you'd want.
...complex boss fights, a quirky story to uncover and lots of secrets to find.
So I guess what I'm saying is, if you go into Gato Roboto with the only expectation being "Metroid but with a cat protagonist," you won't likely be disappointed. But if you hope for anything beyond that, you'll likely wind up entertained but unsatisfied.
Gato Roboto is polished, and there is no doubt a certain naive charm to the game, aided by catchy music and sound effects.
Gato Roboto is a bite-sized trek that's sufficiently programmed for the right amount of enjoyment. With enough charm to last a Sunday afternoon, Kiki's escapade is sure to leave behind a pleasant memory or three. Just be sure to keep expectations in check.
Everyone else already said "Domo Arigato Gato Roboto", so I'm not gonna do that
Gato Roboto combines cats and mechs both blended into a Metroid-like adventure that is sure to please cat lovers and gamers alike. Kiki is the best and I’ll fight anyone to protect her.
An interesting and fun metroidvania that doesn't lasts long but entertains a until you reach its ending.

Gato Roboto is a short, sharp burst of Metroid fun, with cats. It sounds daft, but strong level design and a few original tweaks make it well worth a look.
Gato Roboto is a delightful Metroidvania title that favors the classics enough to feel a sense of connection to them while forging is own path forward. Filled with plenty of humor, challenge, and healthy heap of cattitude, Gato Roboto is a purr-fectly satisfy title.
Gato Roboto is a charming and challenging metroidvania that at first glance might not be your cup of tea, but then you'll realize that its mechanics and gameplay are deeper and more aligned to classic games of the genre.

Gato Roboto is a budget priced title on Switch that puts many more expensive games to shame. It's cute story, vibrant world, and unique art and audio. Definitely pick this one up.
If you like metroidvania games and don't care about its short length, you'll definitely love this game.

Sometimes you just need a small but interesting, relaxing but intense game that keeps you busy on a rainy weekend, and that's all. Gato Roboto is that kind of game.

Gato Roboto accomplishes so much with so little. Even those it looks like a game that would be on the Atari 2600 or the big brick Gameboy, every aspect of Kiki's world glows as bright as one of the best of the Metroidvania genre. Plus, it's a cat in a mech suit, does a game get any more charming than that?
Without ever excelling or innovating in any element of its design, Gato Roboto proves to be a cohesive and immediate experience.
