The game's story is engaging and well-integrated into the gameplay, featuring a variety of quests and interactive elements that enhance the experience. Players appreciate the balance of challenge and relaxation, with a charming narrative that unfolds as they search for hidden cats. The combination of beautiful artwork, a soothing soundtrack, and a rewarding storyline makes it a standout in the hidden object genre.
“The artwork looked amazing, the music was relaxing, the storyline was interesting, and the game was very fun to play.”
“I love the story and the search.”
“Nice storyline and an optimal difficulty level: cats are not too obvious and you have to put a bit of effort to find out where they might be, and the game process is enjoyable: lots of hidden achievements, which adds to the fun.”
“This is not just find the cats; you need to investigate almost everything on the screen as it is fully interactive. Speeding through won't get you most of the kitties, and almost none of the achievements. You really have to work for them, but the reward is a lovely mellow game that is challenging while relaxing, and tells a story as well.”
“I love hidden object games--this is the first one I've played that has a storyline!”
“Would recommend the developers to add hints, at least for the last 2-3 cats left to find in the main story.”

“You have your usual hidden cats, the interactive hidden cats, a bunch of other interactable items (backpacks, doorbells, lamps, etc.), quests, and a new hidden lamp mechanic.”
“The gameplay feels cluttered and overwhelming, with too many mechanics that distract from the main objective.”
“Finding certain items is frustrating due to their obscure placements, making the experience less enjoyable.”
