A full, uncut version of this review is on the [url=https://otomelovers.com/2026/02/25/cat-president-3rd-rate-candidate-review-by-celtic7guardian/]Otome Lovers website.[/url] [h3]Introduction: In Which I Justify Playing a Silly Game with Romanceable Felines[/h3] Many a time has a person claimed that their cat/dog/[insert pet] would do a better job of leading the United States of America than whatever president is currently in charge. As a citizen of said country (albeit not living there right now), I can confirm this to be true. Sadly, this is unlikely to be tested in our world. That is why I am pleased to say that we can at least see the results in the Cat President series. This includes its newest entry, which is titled Cat President: 3rd-Rate Candidate. Until this point, I had never played a game made by the devs of this series, who are known as Oh, a Rock! Studios. Despite being the third in the series, Cat President: 3rd-Rate Candidate (referred to as Cat President 3 from now on) doesn't require any knowledge of the previous games. I had a great time jumping in and embracing the chaos without worrying about anything outside of it. [h3]Story: In Which I Summarize a Wild Tai…

[b]You can't be fur real, Pollytrix is the cutest cat![/url] In Cat President: 3rd-Rate Candidate you play as yourself, but in an alternate world where pets can talk and humans were banned from politics many years ago. So who are the politicians? Well, cats and dogs of course! Though, we’re only focusing on those running for President, which seems to be mainly cats. The game starts with you and your best friend Thomas at the yearly State Fair, but this year is a bit different. After all, it’s election season and that means all the cats in the running are here to meet the voters! Not like you knew beforehand though, considering you don’t exactly like politics. Your best friend, Thomas, is a total nerd for it though and he convinces you to stay and meet the candidates with him. Granted, it required paying $10 to enter a raffle where first prize is becoming their campaign manager, but hey second prize is a free pizza. Surely all the good luck you’ve accumulated won’t all be used up to win first prize here. Welp. Universe, you really are playing an early April Fools prank on me huh. After meeting all the candidates running, and more specifically getting first impressions in for six s…

There are 6 new different kind of cats running for president and they need your help. The romance part is made in a cute innocent way, nothing gross in it. Mainly you just talk with these cats, make choices which lead you either to the good, neutral or bad ending. These Cat president games are so absurd and humorous! :D And unique! This 3rd one has been fun to read, too and there are all those cute cats to watch. Nano for president! <3

The game is much like the other two, very simple visual novels that have some very fun humor. I highly recommend this for all who love cats and enjoy the humor that was shown in the trailer and screenshots. The new features in this game include choosing your character's gender (including a nonbinary option), choosing the gender of the candidates (with a nonbinary option and also a "Let RNG decide" option), and the characters being able to blink. Oh, a Rock! has done wonderfully as per usual. This weird and absurd world of cats becoming president is one I personally love. I've been excited and eagerly waiting for the game from the game's confirmation, the casting call, the playtests, all the way up to the release. For full disclosure, I've received this for free to playtest before release. I hope you enjoy the VN as much as I've enjoyed playtesting it.

This has a short common route with vastly differently routes per cat. One is a musical. Another involves time loops. Just like real politics. The wacky premise is leaned into for all it's worth. There are 3 different endings per route based on whether you make good or bad decisions. It's fairly easy to know what the good decisions are. Although choosing the bad ones is still fun.

i do like this game. but it doesnt hit different like the first 2.
