- “Gamers don't spend thousands of dollars on gaming rigs and the latest 3D graphics cards to play 2D games.”
- “The graphics are okay for most of it, but like in the other games, some of the hidden cats have a really weird posture or shape.”

The gameplay is generally described as simple, casual, and enjoyable, often lasting around 10-13 minutes.

- “However, the soundtrack remains an issue I had already noticed: the music tends to feel repetitive, and since it accompanies you throughout the entire gameplay, a bit more variety would have helped make the atmosphere feel fresher and more engaging.”
- “The lack of variety in the scenes and the absence of additional challenges beyond finding cats can make the gameplay become monotonous after a while.”
- “I would rate its difficulty as 1/10 since the gameplay is minimal, there's a hint button available for unlimited use, and the instructions remain clear throughout the entire game (you need to find and right-click on each cat).”

Overall, the game's replayability is mixed; while some players appreciate the time trial feature that encourages speed runs, many note that the static cat positions limit long-term engagement. The game offers decent replay value for those who enjoy quick challenges, but its overall lack of varied content and levels reduces its appeal for repeated playthroughs.
- “Also, once you complete it the first time, you unlock a clock timer which adds replay value if you want to get faster at finding all of the cats.”
- “There is also fairly good replay value as you're not likely to remember most of the cat locations for a few playthroughs, at least.”
- “While the time trial feature adds some replayability, the position of the cats do not change in future playthroughs, which turns the game into a memory game.”
- “Each one in the series can be done with relatively little time, and there's some precious little replay value.”
- “The artwork and music are good and the user interface is clear and effective, but with only one level and limited replay value, there isn’t much to it.”
