Overall, the game offers decent replayability due to the randomization of cat locations, which keeps each playthrough fresh. While some players find the replay value a bit light, the inclusion of extra cats and the ability to revisit levels enhances the experience, making it worthwhile for casual play. Despite its short length, many users express a desire to return to the game for a relaxing experience.
“I love that in comparison to other similar hidden object games, the location of cats is random and changing every time you start the same level; this adds to replayability.”
“I love that the images have replay value and a variety of cats you can find each time you turn on the game.”
“Replay value is a bit light, but it's not an expensive game, so it's worth the price.”
“It's a bit short but makes up for it in replay value, as the cats are not always in the same place, so I'm looking forward to coming back to it at some point and relaxing with it some more.”
“There are some complaints about the 1k cats achievement, but unless one has managed to memorize the location of every single kitten on the maps, there is some space for replayability, especially with the extra cats thrown in after completion.”

Players have mixed feelings about the grinding aspect of the game; while some find the achievement of collecting 1000 cats tedious and repetitive, others enjoy the exploration it encourages. The reuse of levels for 100% completion can feel grindy after multiple playthroughs, but many still find the gameplay enjoyable, especially during initial runs. Overall, the grind is seen as a double-edged sword, offering both challenges and opportunities for exploration.
“Mildly irritating that 2 iterations later the game is still reusing the levels for 100% completion; it's still enjoyable to play for the first 1-2 times, but afterwards it just seems grindy and overused.”
“The most grindy achievement was to find 1000 cats, which I found easiest to do by replaying the Goldilocks level.”
“My only complaint: the 1000 cats achievement is a little tedious, but it allows for further exploration of the levels beyond earning the rest of the achievements.”
