60 of 191 · most liked firstSpooky Cats is a really cute platformer game that is extremely cutesy, tawlking wike dis an stuffs, and being a bit of a quick playthrough that can have some decently difficult levels. Gameplay The game is a 2D platformer, standard controls, and even a roll attack that allows you to kill enemies, except for ghost, as does landing on their heads. The only other noteable mechanic that exists is the ability to “climb” walks due to your character which is a cat, cling on, jump off and recling…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Overall Rating: 7/10 First off, I bought this game with a 75% off coupon. So I paid all of 75¢ US for it. I was expecting a quirky, spoofy, "spooky", weird kitty cat themed casual platformer. I got what I paid for. And it was worth all 75¢ So why not a higher rating you ask? It is cute, not terribly diffcult as platformers go, a bit frustrating in places, but not hardcore. You will die, a good number of times if you aren't quick on the keys. The graphics are cute, but a bit simplistic,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A simple little cat platformer with a cute art style. The stages are fairly easy and the game is short, but it does give off a creepy vibe in the sound department. It's a nice little experience for the price.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →To be taken on a discount. Short but nice game. The advantage is that there are cards.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game for the Halloween, creepy dead cats flying around + spiders and rats. +Game is not that hard to play, but sometimes it can be difficult to get all the coins. +The more pennies you have the better +Double jump + wall jumps prince of Persia style +Very cheap +Nice emotes and spooky backgrounds -Too scary to play at night -Rats :(
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very basic gentle platformer. Not a complete waste of time. Spooky Cats is a slow-paced platformer in an underlit environment. It never gets very complicated, and takes about 1-2 hours to complete. And cats! 60/100 More reviews at [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/39546715/]Omnivore Gamer, games that are easy to control (for handicapped gamers).

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This light platformer delivers on its name. 50% spooky, 50% cats, 100% casual platforming goodness. Gameplay feels smooth and clean for the most part. Beating the game will be easy for any solid gamer to accomplish in less than an hour, and I wouldn’t say that the game has much replay value. Kudos to the developers for leaning into the silly casual concept and adding a couple good laughs along the way - the sound effects are particularly funny, although the music ranges from annoying to catchy.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cute kitty cats with strange sound effects and randomly awesome music. Jump around to your hearts content while collecting pennies for your mommy because she luvs you. Would spin jump at evil green kitties while knocking their bones away any day.

One last thing the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cute platformer for a kitty lover, very easy to beat. I would easily abandon any platformer and not finish the game if the control sucks but this has solid control, even mentioned as only partial controller support (I'm using Xbox controller).
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is an example how to make a bad game, put a cat-like character in it and get positive reviews. So the first thing a player see is graphics. The character, enemies and the whole environment looks like it was drawn in paint by a person with no skills. Seriously, don't call a cat few circles with ears. Very dark levels plus, the graphics and the way a protagonist and enemies moves make the game very heavy and clumsy. Typography does not exist. Story texts are written in a default…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cute platformer with the gimmick that you can't actually see very much of the screen as you are wandering in the dark. That is not so bad early on, but when platforms are out of your "eye distance" and you have to make blind leaps of faith to hope there is a platform nearby, the fun wears off quickly.

When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cute little kitty puzzle game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I bought this because I received a coupon, only spent $1.50, and I have to say that it's really not worth it. Fireboy and Watergirl is a better, free, flash version of a game like this. I don't really know why you'd spend any money on it other to support the developer (who I'm sure is a good person!).
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I seriously don't get the positive reviews. The gameplay is average and has plot holes, such as why is there a human girl who's spirit needs to be put back into her body, what happened to the Protagonist's mother? Once you've collected all the pennies in game they are no longer needed in future gamplays and considering there is no restart button it makes the replay value of this game very low.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unique combat system that works very well. I love it. Medieval setting also hits me in the right spot. But that is everything that is good about this game. Balance is horrible. Too many overpowered moves. Too many cheesing options. Ledges, fire, spikes. If these were removed the game would be much more enjoyable. Variety in characters is nice but also a bit of a problem since there are a few that promote annoying playstyles. I enjoy the game. But it has A LOT of room for improvement.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is the cutest game in the whole wide world! I got it on sale, but I would have paid even more than full price for it. Finished it in 1.7 hours. Really enjoyable =) Devs should definitely make more levels!

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Spooky Cats is meant to be a cute platformer with a "spooky" theme. That's exactly what it claims to be, and that's exactly what it is. I can't fault it on that. What I can fault it on is almost everything else. The art style is at the very least consistent, but there are only a handful of platform textures used throughout the game, and none of them are particularly visually pleasing. (There are cloud platforms in this, but because they're not perfectly rectangular platforms, I think a bit on…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Once I picked this game up I was expecting a game with cute cats but I will never make that mistake again. This game has relentless horror scenes, I had nightmares for a whole week after playing. Also message me if you know how to beat the final boss.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's rly spooky
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Simple and adorable little platformer. The game lasts an hour, but the chills from the scawwy cats and bats will last forever. Cat based game 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Super cute platformer!! It's a simple collect and progress game, and it has good controls and the cats sound adorable. I personally like the darkness in the levels as it adds a bit of difficulty to the gameplay - totally spooky if you can't see where you're climbing into until it's closer! It's not expensive, and it's a nice way to kill time :3c
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not Recommended
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Spooky Cats is a mobile app that's been dumped on Steam as if it was a real PC game (it's not)... it's a cash grab from greedy mobile devs. This mobile app is a craptastic 2D retro pixel/MS-Paint platformer with a cat theme, but a badly drawn blob is a badly drawn blob. As far as platformers go this is terrible, no surprises there, you can double jump and you can dash. Collect the coins, dash into enemy cats to kill them, this really is uninspired shovelware, but what should we expect from…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →quite possibly the best game on steam
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game for people who are not good at platformers (I am one of them), and who can make the room with the PC screen completely dark. Some sections are moderately challenging, if you want to reach every coin. Mostly it's relaxing though, the difficulty just high enough to keep things from getting boring. Recommended for casual players. NOT recommended for people who are good at 2D platformers.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really cute and fun game to play.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bought this game just because I like the cute Point Shop goods and the Badges... But since I got it, i might as well try it out. The game... although looks very badly drawn.. is pretty nicely coded. The controls are.. well.. easy to use... and the difficulty of the game is... well... easy, especially I am playing this right after I finished Koloro, this looks like a child's play. But that's just because Koloro is way too difficult in compare. This game, is actually pretty good for a beginner…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got a cool badge
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game, while it looks cute, just isn't all that much fun. Neither my wife, nor I, could really get into it. The game is needlessly difficult in some areas, and then polar opposite in others. On top of that, it's just one more game that doesn't really seem to bring anything else new to the table. If you absolutely HAVE to have every cat game on Steam, this one isn't horrible, but I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you. 3/10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Spooky Cats, an action inde platformer made by Russpuppy is a masterpeice, and here's why. Ever since I was a little boy I've always been scared of cats. They would meow at me, or even try to attack me before I ran away with great speed. At first, I though this game would be horrible, that it would be a really bad steam game and thats it, boy was I wrong. The start of the game made me almost stop play instantly, I do not like cats, and even less when they are spooky. I managed to load up the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A cute little puzzle platformer. There isn't much here, and the dev doesn't claim there to be much. But for 35-45 minutes of entertainment, 2 bucks isn't unreasonable. Fun, simple, and doesn't overstay its welcome.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →got this with a coupon the other day. i dont really get the positive review lol its a platformer, no story or a challenge. I really like cats, but i didnt really like this game xD and idk why this game is "spooky cats" cuz they arent even spooky.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A cute platformer which only requires wasd (or arrow keys) and the spacebar button. It is relatively cute (to the point where I didn't want to see my character die at all) but that's pretty much all. The story is almost non-existant and sometimes you're just jumping around with no idea where to go. But still fun nevertheless. Recommend getting it on a sale!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Got it with a coupon and I don't regret it at all. One of the best indie games of my generation, underpriced if anything.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good game,please make more levels. Cats are based.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game, best platformer since Super mario 2, Thanks Kevin for the gift.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's not a horrible game by any means, and it kept me entertained until the end. (Well, the repetitive background graphics did start to wear on me after a little while.) But golly, there's just so little to Spooky Cats. If you're even somewhat competent at platformers, you're looking at 30-40 minutes of gameplay, tops. It's hard to recommend a game so short and easy, even at its measly price point of $3. Still, I won't deny enjoying its cutesy-horror style. And while your overall movement…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →4/10 I'm ambivalent about Spooky Cats. I ebjoyed it at first, but quickly got bored. It is a maze-game that features a cute little kitty. Cute Kitty navigates mazes collecting pennies while being assailed by spooky cats. There are zombie cats, ghost cats and. vampire cats. Oh yeah, and mummy mice. The whole thing is pretty silly but if you're like me you could use a little silly every now-and-then. This game is a MoPed. It's kinda fun to play but you may feel a little sheepish if your friends…
