Cats and the Other Lives

You're a cat, doing your own things while this family is falling apart. You get to see many side of the story of each individuals, all the fun and the sadness in between. It's a slow pace game where you sit back and enjoy the story on a cat's perspective.

An interesting approach to the story's point of view. I like the way you start as a cat that is just there, but isn't really a participant in the story, but as time goes on, you start to have more and more influence and see how much in fact the cat matters in the family. The story itself is intriguing, with the way the histories of the different characters unfold and how the past, present, and possible future are intertwined, but be warned that there are a couple of heavier scenes. Additionally, it was really cool that you could experience most of the typical cat activities, such as messing with people, throwing up, and screaming until a door is opened for you. Did encounter a couple of minor bugs. One was after a cutscene, the part of the room that it occurred in was left covered in a black screen. Second one happened when entering a room at the same time when an NPC that was following you started saying something and in the following room its chat bubble was left there permanently till the end of the game (loading back didn't help). There is one more regarding the achievement for the memories, which a number of people have had a problem getting after fulfilling the requirement, but at least there's a fix in the discussions, and regarding the achievements, it would be nice if there was an option to skip entire conversations and cutscenes.

The story of this game massively surpassed my expectations. The characters are believable and feel like real people even as you never actually see their "faces" by any real degree due to the art style. And playing as an actual, regular orange housecat was delightful. Aspen is a very good kitty. I would recommend if you need/prefer to have content warnings to look some up for this game, as some of the subject matter was more intense than I expected.
