About Shadow Lurking

It's your job to keep the cat fed and hydrated so he doesn't die. However it won't be that easy, as monsters will actively hunt the cat, so it's up to you to keep the cat protected. But be wary as the Shadow Lurker is out to hunt you. Can you survive the night and uncover the mystery?

  • Sprint - Left Shift/RT
  • Rotate Camera - Mouse/Right joystick

Keep the cat alive!

  • Make sure the cat has enough water by using the cup to get water from the sink and putting it in the cat's water bowl.
  • Make sure the cat has enough food by grabbing the cat food from the fridge and using the can opener to open the canned food and putting it in the cat's food bowl.

Fend of the monsters!

  • Be wary of the Shadow Lurker who roams around the house trying to hunt you.
  • Be wary of the Gardener who roams outside in the garden trying to attack the cat.
  • Be wary of the Pentagram who spawns randomly at the start of each night trying to attack the cat.
  • Be wary of the other monster who will spawn on later nights
  • If you die to any monster there will be a hint available if you are struggling to fend the monster off.

I love the atmosphere and sound in this game. Really spooky. It's puzzle-solving while under stress. The stress comes from running around looking after the cat, keeping the monsters you know and bay. The puzzle solving comes from trying to work out what you could be doing differently to keep the latest monster at bay. Definitely worth a play!

I like3 the game....very nice pace between challenging and enjoyment... the only thing i would say that kind of was annoying... there are bugs spots... for some reason when you first spawn jumping into the game.... my screen will flip up to the ceiling... i notice it when im around the cat... it does that or around the bowls... not sure what the programming is around those spots but it definitely....should be looked into......I ENJOYED THE GAMEPLAY... IF YOU WANT TO SEE ME AIN WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT....MY CHANNEL IS WeLikeSATRDAYz on youtube... make sure you spell it correctly lol just did the game on 9/19/25... hope this helps... other than that... this is a really cool game! :)
