How it feels

A charming but tricky puzzle game where you twist the environment to guide goofy cat-mole hybrids through colorful caves.

What players say

Players say Molecats is a surprisingly hard puzzle game that looks cute but quickly becomes demanding. The difficulty ramps up fast, and some find it too reflex-driven for a thinking game. A no-fail state means you can loop around instead of restarting, but that does not stop the frustration. Reviews compare it to Lemmings and warn that it is not casual at all.
