This game is a purrrrfect casual delight!

If you're a cat person, or enjoy strategic defense games, puzzle games, or physics based games, or even if you think this game looks mildly interesting; buy it. The definition of what this game is exactly is a little bit difficult to nail down. Part of me wants to call it akin to a tower defense game, but it isn’t, there aren’t really any ‘towers’ per say. Part of me wants to call it a casual game, but it isn’t, there’s more than enough challenging game play to satisfy. Part of me wants to call it a puzzle game, but it isn’t, it’s got a lot of ways to ‘solve’ each level.

So here’s what I can say it is for sure;

This game is a unique twist on strategic ‘base defense’. The attacks come in the form of cats that want to sit on your lap and cuddle with you while you’re trying to read. That’s right, if you ‘lose’ you have the pleasure of being treated to a kitty on your lap and a purring sound. It completely negates the sting of any loss instantly. There is a bit of a challenge in trying to get your base, which by the way is akin to a child’s pillow fort, set up exactly the way you want it before feline nemesis come and knock it down.

The music is great and fits the game very well. The graphics are cute and well done, mildly akin to scribblenauts, without actually looking like them. The gameplay is simple and at no point was I ever confused about what to do.

Also, for those who really want to push their skill, there are a multitude of ‘power ups’ that are actually quite tricky to use at the right moment. But I’ve done the whole game so far without using one, focusing on building my pillow fort to exact details. In fact if I have any complaint, it’s that the cats come a little too fast to use many of the power ups with confidence.

I am blown away how much I, as a middle aged man, have enjoyed this obviously child’s game. But I can tell I’m going to be putting quite a few hours in on this one.
