Find The Cat: Nightmare

[H1]A complete nightmare... mostly for our expectations[/H1] I am so disappointed. As a creepy-ambience enthusiast, I thought I had found the promised land: about 10 levels of 40-50 cats each (from memory), the setup sounded fantastic, especially with environments like abandoned school grounds, an overgrown botanical house and a creepy toy store! Sadly, the dream part ended quickly and this all turned out to be Find the Cat: Nightmare. Credit where it’s due: there are plenty of levels and cats, the art looks nice, and the transparent kitties are adorable.That’s honestly what pulled me in. Unfortunately, the hunt itself is barely a hunt. Usually only one cat per level is even slightly “hidden”, while the rest sit in plain sight like they forgot the assignment. On top of that, there are basically no QoL features: no hints, no zoom, no achievements, no save system, no level selection, no sound sliders, no fullscreen toggle... nothing. There isn’t even proper music. For a game at this price point, that feels extremely bare. And then there’s the runtime. The whole thing lasted 13 minutes. Thirteen. Minutes. Even looping the last level until you start a new game doesn’t help much. Pay…

Not Recommended After 15 minutes of playing time, I'd hit the end of the content. Cats are almost insultingly easy to find. Just large bare outlines of a different line-weight than the background artwork. They hang out where cats would be expected to hang out. The only place where there was a clever overlap of shapes to try and obscure it was one where they had the empty-outline-cat-eyes overlap with the Creepy Eyes In The Darkness eyes of a black painting. And that might've just been a happy accident. There's an attempt at Spooky Atmospherics, but it's just 'creepy' background noises like Ticking Clock, Someone Turning Pages, Dragging Shuffled Noise. All of which are drowned out by the three or four different cat meows it cycles through every time you click on a cat. And you'll be clicking on one every second or so because, as said earlier, it's frustratingly easy to find them. No other hidden objects to find, no hidden easter eggs, no interaction with the levels themselves, no opening up doors or sacks to find additional cats, no flipping switches. No options to make it harder or easier. No hints. The only Game Option is language, which only applies to the menu because there…

Nice game, but it needs volume controls and maybe hints for the invisible cats. Even without those, it was a very short, quick level that I played.

I enjoy this game because I find very calming and a chill way to pass the time. I wish that it would have an option for a timer though to see how long each puzzle took you.

Chill game! Good art works and design. its kinda easy but good for kill time

Chill game with a cool atmosphere. Definetly recommend to kill time. 👍🏻
