What others call dry, I call simple and effective. If you read various forums or other reviews of Cat Quest, you'll notice some people complain that the combat is a little dry. I'm happy to say that Cat Quest never made me yearn for a MFi controller, and since using a MFi controller is my favorite way to game on mobile, that's saying something! The controls are often unresponsive or require too much precision for me to fully feel comfortable or immersed in the experience. Usually, the use of on-screen controls (especially in the RPG genre) frustrates the living daylights out of me. On the surface, Cat Quest doesn't offer anything groundbreaking to the RPG genre, but it provides an incredibly entertaining and smooth experience throughout the game, much of which the game owes to its simple, yet clever use of controls.Ĭat Quest never made me yearn for a MFi controller I would be lying if I said the punchline lands every time however, I found myself chuckling a fair amount at the absurdity of it all. The developers have clearly gone out of their way to produce not only a ton of cat puns but a healthy dose of satire into their game. In case this still isn't enough to satisfy you, the game itself points out just how generic the villain of Cat Quest seems to be written. Lots of interesting NPCs with mysterious motives always seem to be sending you on wacky quests. Now you understand when the Skyrim-like plotline is not only forgivable but rather charming in retrospect. It was right about here in the story where I realized a pattern was emerging Cat Quest has plenty of other references, callbacks, homages, or whatever you feel like calling them to many popularly adventure and RPG games in video game history. This tiny blue cat spirit may also look familiar to gamers out there as Spirry is eerily similar to Navi from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. You're awoken on the shore by a cat spirit, aptly named Spirry, who decides to help you out. You play as an unnamed cat, who is by all accounts minding his own business when an evil white-furred cat comes along, steals his sister, destroys his boat, and leaves the nameless cat for dead. Yes, it's pretty obvious that Cat Quest is paying a little too much homage to Skyrim in the opening credits of the game however, it was pretty easy to overlook this flaw once you carry on and discover there's a method to the madness.
