Earlier today, I delved into the intriguing world of Super Farming Boy, a unique blend of action, puzzle, and farming simulation, highlighting how mobile platforms are becoming a fertile ground for genre experimentation. However, just when I thought I had seen the most unusual release of the day, I stumbled upon something even more extraordinary: a musical adventure featuring a cat lost in space!
"Adventures of a Cat in Space" is exactly what the title suggests. Due to a series of unfortunate events, you find yourself playing as a cat stranded in the vast expanse of space. Your only companion on this interstellar journey is the ship's AI, voiced by the talented Arthur Darvill, known for his role in Doctor Who. Together, you'll navigate through the galaxy, explore alien planets, and solve puzzles in an effort to find your way back home.
But here's the twist: this isn't just any adventure game—it's a musical! That's right, as you guide the cat through its cosmic odyssey, you'll also be treated to 11 unique songs crafted by children's composer David Gibb. This all-ages adventure promises not only the typical point-and-click puzzles but also a delightful auditory experience.
Adventures of a Cat in Space will launch with a lite version, a nostalgic nod to the past, allowing players to experience the initial chapter and get acquainted with the game's core mechanics. While I can't guarantee how well it will cater to the puzzle-solving prowess of younger audiences, I'm confident that many adults will find the game's quirky humor quite appealing.
You'll be able to find Adventures of a Cat in Space on the iOS App Store, though there's no word yet on an Android release. If you're eager for more puzzle-solving fun, be sure to check out our comprehensive list of the top 25 best puzzlers available for both iOS and Android!
