Earlier today, I delved into the intriguing world of Super Farming Boy, a unique blend of action, puzzle-solving, and farming simulation that's making waves on mobile platforms. I thought that would be the most unusual game I'd cover today, but I was pleasantly surprised by the announcement of Adventures of a Cat in Space, a point-and-click adventure with a twist—it's a musical!
Adventures of a Cat in Space is exactly what you might imagine: a feline protagonist, lost amidst the stars due to a series of unfortunate events. Your mission? To guide this wayward cat back home, navigating through the vast galaxy, exploring alien planets, and solving puzzles along the way. But you're not alone in this cosmic journey; the ship's AI, voiced by the talented Arthur Darvill, known for his role in Doctor Who, will be your companion and guide.
What sets this game apart even further is its musical element. Yes, you read that right—this adventure is also a musical! As you progress, you'll collect 11 distinct songs, crafted by children's composer David Gibb, adding a delightful layer of entertainment to the puzzle-solving experience.
Hairball in OrbitTo give players a taste of what's to come, Adventures of a Cat in Space will launch with a lite version, a nostalgic nod to the demo days of yore. This initial chapter will introduce you to the game's core mechanics and quirky humor. While I can't guarantee how it will resonate with younger puzzle enthusiasts, I'm confident that adults will find plenty to enjoy in this offbeat adventure.
You'll be able to embark on this interstellar journey on the iOS App Store, though there's no word yet on an Android release. If you're itching for more puzzle games in the meantime, be sure to check out our comprehensive list of the top 25 best puzzlers available for both iOS and Android!
