About Molecats

Аn indirect-control tile-twisting puzzled adventure ...with traps!

Molecats is a challenging indirect-control puzzle game that takes place in the quirky and beautiful world of... Molecats!

Molecats are sort of cat-mole hybrids. They are a bunch of gawky fellows who like mushrooms, marching and adventures of all kind! Molecats spend their time digging into nearby caves and gathering delicious ‘shrooms and shiny relics, occasionally getting lost in the process.

Your goal is to guide Molecats through the underground by taking control of the environment and changing the path they follow. On their way, Molecats will face lots of dangerous traps, spooky monsters and tricky challenges and meet a whole bunch of strange but interesting characters.

Features:
  • Indirect control via level tiles.. Rotate tiles to connect paths; apply special powers to tiles to make Molecats run, stop, or walk in opposite direction.
  • Simple but challenging. Simple game mechanics at its base with little twists creating more challenging pathfinding puzzles.
  • Peace! Traps and monsters don’t kill, but make your life way more complicated.
  • “Nonfailure” gameplay style. You can’t actually lose this game, but if you mess up, you will end up facing even more puzzles.
  • Tons of secrets! Each level features secondary goals, trophies, mysterious unlockables, special relic collections and hidden locations plus secret levels with unique game mechanics!

Edited to Add: Changed my mind as by the second act, the hair-yanking has totally won out over addictive. For a thinking game about collecting stuff, it's *entirely* too reflex driven. I rage-quit after Ruins and after several weeks can't convince myself to go back. -------------- It's still early days, but it's already clear that Molecats is going to be a mix of addictive and hair-yanking. The lack of a fail-state is very nice (you might have to loop around the level one more time, but you don't have to *start completely over* as in a lot of puzzle games). Runs sensibly on dual monitors. Runs great on my Linux set-up. (Mint 18.2 Nvidia 384.130 GTX 1060)

Played this game in Early Access for a long time. The game is much harder than it looks for the first time, but at the same time, once you understand how it works you enjoy the game more and more. The sound and art are perfect.

Fun at first, some mechanisms make the puzzles ultra boring.
