I had waited for a full year to play this game. And finally, on its first birthday, cat game Little Kitty, Big City came to PS5/PS4. Only as a digital version though, I haven't been able to find any information about a physical copy. When you buy it for Playstation you get both the PS4 and PS5 versions, so two games for the price of one.
Little kitty is peacefully enjoying a nap on a windowsill, when a disaster happens. The cat falls down to the big city below. Now the kitty has to find a way back home. Along the way the cat meets other animals, and faceless humans.
I became addicted to this game. The open world area isn't that big, but there are surprisingly lot of things to do. From rescuing ducks and collecting hats to catching (and releasing!) birds, just to name a few. There are some (very easy) puzzles.
Ducks
Besides several cats the game has other animals aswell. One of the cutest missions is to find four ducklings and return them back to their worried father.
If you rescue the ducks before returning home, you encounter them again while climbing towards home. One strange thing about ducks is that they love water, unlike our hero little kitty.
There's another quest which requires you to bring four rubber ducks to the pond. I wondered where the pond is, but it is the same one where the real ducks have to be returned.
Climbing back home
And don't worry about returning home. Even after doing that you can keep playing the game. In fact it is even easier then, because all the collectibles will be marked on the map.
To be able to climb back home the kitty needs energy, and for that it needs to find four fish. One of them has to be stolen from a fisherman, and the last one is on a high rooftop.
Hat Simulator
In the game you can collect hats. That is one of the features I loved about Goat Simulator, and it's great to have that here aswell. You can collect hats from the environment, and buy them from vending machines.
Was this game worth the wait? Was it worth the relatively high price of over 20 euros? Oh yes. I played the game through twice, both PS5 and PS4 versions. I couldn't get enough of the little kitty's adventures.
Little Kitty, Big City Game vs. Stray
Which cat game is better? It's a matter of opinion. For me Little Kitty, Big City is the second best cat game, right after the acclaimed Stray (affiliate link). We need more great cat games like these, and I'm certainly hoping that there'll be a sequel to Little Kitty, Big City!
Little Kitty, Big City gameplay
Little Kitty, Big City merch is available on their official store. How much I'd want this shirt below, and a certain skirt. Too bad that too many clothes have polyester (ie plastic) in them.
