Cuphead, developed by StudioMDHR Entertainment, is a run and gun platform indie title. Overall, the narrative follows Cuphead and his brother Mugman, as they end up making a terrible bet against the devil. Losing the bet, Cuphead and Mugman are forced to give their souls to the devil, but it seems that our protagonist duo can save themselves if they go out and collect debts.
The devil has a number of souls that are owed to him by other sorrowful cartoon characters. If Cuphead and Mugman can go out and collect all the souls then the devil may just allow them to keep their own souls in return. However, debt collecting is easier said than done, both Cuphead and Mugman will have a difficult road ahead of themselves.
Most of the game is based around boss battles and each can be rather difficult to go through. However, if you need a hand then look no further, we’re here to offer a guide on how to defeat each boss in the video game.
You will want to take notice that the game will force players to go through boss battles in regular mode in order to claim the souls. If you’re having a difficult time defeating a boss then go through the simple mode a few times to get the hang of things before attempting the regular session which will up the difficulty.
Without further ado, check out the boss guide down below along with our other boss guides for Cuphead.

Clip Joint Calamity Boss Guide
Clip Join Calamity will pin players against two toads ready to duke it out though it seems that you only have to defeat the shortest toad, for purposes of this guide, we’ll refer to the short toad as Toad A and the tall toad as Toad B.
Toad A
Starting off the battle, Toad A will send out flying fist attacks which are relatively easy to dodge just by ducking or jumping over them. However, they can be spammed your way so keeping note that the pink colored fists can be parried should help a bit during the attacks.
Mid way into the battle, the toad will start to spin in place, get ready to jump and dash over to the other side of the level. It’s at this side that the toad will resort to the same attacks with the inclusion of a new attack.
The new attack Toad A will deliver is a homing style fist attack. These are a bit more rare in comparison to the normal fist attacks the toad delivers.
Lastly, Toad A can transform into a slot machine and send out attacks similar to the fist attacks, these can be dodged by dunking or hopping on the attacks as platforms.
Toad B
Toad B acts as more of a support for Toad A. You’ll only have to worry about two moves from this toad which at first he will send out flaming bees which will hover and slowly make their way towards you. A single shot should take care of them and at the rate they move, you should have not trouble getting through them.
Lastly, when Toad A spins to the other side of the map, Toad B will transform into a fan and blow Cuphead towards Toad A. This will happen in spurts so focus on dodging Toad A’s attacks and moving away from the direction you’re being sent towards.
If you keep attacking Toad A you’ll eventually defeat the boss level.
