“Even though I prefer the old design, the story is an absolute masterpiece and I didn't play something like that before.”
“The soundtrack was right and the gameplay was good and the story... the story was... play the game and find out about the story (the story was sad).”
“I originally downloaded it for the sake of cats, but it has an immersive story which is honestly pretty sad but it's really good.”
“The story is choppy and written in a fairly unrealistic fashion with a dissatisfactory ending.”
“(spoilers don't read if not played) The story was just sad in the end. I thought it was going to be a good ending with all the cats being together and fixed; they would be in a better place, but... it was different from that. They left each other and parted ways, which was very sad to me.”
“It's a very good platformer that will never get you bored, but I don't like the story; it tries to look deep but in fact, it doesn't make sense at all to me.”
