A Planet Full of Cats

I appreciate the more cohesive storyline of this game than previous, even if I may not need it to enjoy the games. I echo the sentiment of a few other reviewers. I know many players may not like the increased dialogue but I felt it livened the game a little and added some humor. I buy every "full of cats" Devcats game and I must say this may be my least favorite installment, however. Echoing a few of my fellow reviewers' sentiments, I loathed the fungus side-tasks. It moved away from being pattern-recognition skill-based to just scanning every square inch manually. The x-ray vision only gave a small circle of visibility to scan an entire page of environment and it was laborious and not fun. I hate using hints but I had to every time just to get through the slog of it. The worst one was in the spaceship which was a huge environment. When I clicked on the x-ray vision button the game slowed to 2 fps, zoomed in and locked the zoom so you couldn't zoom out and do large sweeps. The circle moving at 2 fps was so painful I just used hints for that whole fungus level. Unfortunately the hints were bugged and, likely due to fps, would show the sparkly hint outline first, disappear, then pan to the location of the fungus. Before it reached the location it would jerk and pan back to your original location. All of this jankiness took like 7 seconds and then you had to manually scroll over to the location it panned to and remember where the outline had been on your screen originally. Remember this was all in 2 fps so it took like 20 minutes. I recommend a patch to fix that and never include that mechanic in one of these games again. Beyond that, the game was okay. The little mini-game of matching the magic golden mirror/orb/thing letters was not fun but not the worst thing ever. I appreciate the hand-drawn environments as always. I do, however, miss when the cats were actually hard to find, not just scattered across the map for you to click obvious ones until you reach 150 of them. It makes it less satisfying and more like a chore, as another reviewer said. I haven't finished the game yet so I'll update my review once I do.

This is Devcats most ambitious addition to the series by far! There are still a few bugs, and I felt a little directionless at times, but I overall enjoyed this game a lot. I noticed the homages to pretty much all of the previous entries in the Full of Cats series. I found myself tearing up at the end of the game, as stupid as that may sound haha. I love Judy!! Oh, and I can't forget to mention how great the music is. There's a new song for each area on the map, and they're all bangers! I particularly liked the one of the PUSS Explorer :) Plus the art and color gradients are fantastic as always.

The game initially had some bugs and issues, but the developers quickly fixed everything. I think it's one of the most interesting titles, it's made from the heart, just like their other games. I recommend them all, especially since these people support cat adoption. Good job!

Jeden Cent wert. Ich hatte das Spiel nach 6:57 Stunden durch. Ich muss zugeben, ich habe manchmal in den Guides nachlesen müssen wie es weitergeht, aber es hat riesigen Spaß gemacht.

Easily my favorite Devcats game so far. I didn't think I would enjoy a point & click metroidvania as much as I did, but I want more. I hope they keep moving their games in this direction and make them more interactive as point & click stories instead of standard hidden object games. One huge gripe I have is that most of the rooms go edge to edge on the screen, and that means a couple of cats are hidden by the UI at the top while others are so close to the edges that it's easy to miss. I wish there was either a small buffer or border on the edges, because checking around the top UI especially was tedious and not fun.

Love this game Absolute buy if you like the genre

虽然还是给了好评，游戏本身也是好玩的，但这一作是我玩过这个公司所有找猫游戏里体验最差的。其他游戏给满分的话，这个只能给到及格。首先，我认为寻物游戏的精髓在于短小，哪怕隔很久打开也能很快上手，但这一作的大地图+故事线+引导不清晰导致每次打开都要回想进度，甚至还要回之前的地方重新找（地图上完全无标识哪里找过哪里没有），让人很烦躁；其次，我不理解为什么有个道具在整个故事中完全没用，收集到的唯一作用就是解锁了一个成就，而且收集过程完全没有任何提示，我是看攻略才找到的；最后，为什么玩个找猫游戏还能闪退/卡死，有时候重启都没用，我都以为我要死档了。建议制作组还是回归A Building Full of Cats时期，下一作千万别这样了。
