Cats in Time

Not my favorite kind of game, but it honestly is pretty well made and succeeds at what it's suppose to be. This game is basically an in between point of hidden object games and adventure puzzle game. I say that because the game clearly has puzzles to get to most cats, so clearly it's a puzzle game, but the puzzle are extremely basic and can almost be done in a brain off mode, with bits of thinking required and sometimes just connecting what things should go or be used where. In that sense I enjoyed it because I really hate pixel hunt hidden object games, and other than the optional postcard collectibles, this game doesn't have pixel hunts, but it was also nice to still have a sort of easy going game where my brain was only slightly being activated to get through the basic logic puzzles. It's like an extremely condensed version of typical puzzles you might find in a point and click game, but obviously there is no exploration required and everything is extremely clearly telegraphed with a yellow/gold color. There's even a hints system to help you get though. I used it a couple of times when I felt like I was just locking for something and then immediately clicked out of the hint so I could do the actual solving. In the end, for me it was still ok, but I'm not going to pretend like it wasn't a bit addicting. So I basically went though the game in one go even as my brain was feeling like mush. But I think if you do 2-3 levels per day, that's probably a better approach for getting through the game. And if you like hidden object games, I do think this is a nice improvement over those games while still giving that same sort of easy going vibe.
