What players say

Players describe Cato as a cross between Tetris and Match 3 where you keep a cat fed, watered and played with using three constantly draining resources. Many who expected a chill puzzle game find it stressful instead: the timers and the leaderboard that pops up after every round make it feel urgent, though some enjoy the challenge and come back for high scores.
