Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.86/day in the week to Sep 8 → 1.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,402 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I cant express how incredibly, rediculously. hilariously fun this game is! i love how each cat type has its own animation against each type of cat! thats a funominal feature! thank you DEVS for such an incredibly fun game! P.S. The ones complaining about stalemates dont understand how the game works clearly. "If the enemy has only their king left and it is their turn, a stalemate happens if you accidentally trap their king in a way that blocks all of their escape squares but doesn't put them in check. If the enemy king can still legally move, the game continues." In the new game Cat Chess on Steam, stalemates happen for the exact same reason they do in classic chess. Even though the game swaps standard pieces for animated house cats and stray cats, it uses the exact, untouched mechanics of traditional chess.A stalemate triggers when a king is left entirely alone because of three strict rules that govern how the game must be played: 1. You cannot move into danger: The rules of chess state that a king can never willingly step onto a square where it would be captured. 2. You are not allowed to "skip" a turn: Every turn requires a player to make a physical move. 3. The ultimate goal is checkmate, not elimination: You only win if you are actively attacking the king (putting it in check) while it has nowhere to go before you go complaining about your skill issues, maybe learn to play the actual game. just saying folks

I've looked for a great chess tutorial for ages, so my kid and I could learn to play together. Who knew that it would show up on its own, in the form of my cat-loving nine-year-old stumbling across videos about its adorable animations? Cat Chess is PERFE... sorry... PURRRRRRFECT for us. You don't even have to go through tutorials teaching you how the pieces move. It shows you the options for each piece, if you click on them during your turn. It even shows you the options for your opponent's pieces, so you can notice that you're in danger (even if your opponent hasn't realized it yet)! The animations are, of course, the best part: they bring the game's action to life. I'm sure you can play Cat Chess without any of these little assists, and that some people prefer to. But for us, it's an incredibly fast and enjoyable way to get up to the same level as more experienced players. It's just an incredibly well-designed chess game, disguised as a hilarious bunch of cats.
Просто шахматы, но с котами. Минусов нет
Abssssssoooooooollllllllluuuuuttttte cinema je suis fan !
So good, too good. Please add more soundtracks like Chopin, Erik Satie, and Tchaikovsky etc.
Por mais que o jogo entregue o que parece (Xadrez + Gatos) tem um grande problema nos PVP's. Se um player ver que está perdendo e simplesmente sumir da partida, não tem um tempo limite, mesmo com contador, isso deixa o jogo 100% desanimador.
мяу мяяу мяу, мяу мяу, мяяяяу шшшшшшшшшшшшшшшшшшш
Отличный способ научить играть в шахматы человека, которому не нравится их классический вариант. Анимации чудесные, есть разные скины, музыка на фоне тоже очень понравилась. Главный жирный минус - искусственный интеллект в компании и в одиночной игре очень низкий, из-за чего проходить порой неинтересно. Вроде есть онлайн режим, но его еще не пробовала.
music 9.5/10 scrungly cats 10/10 but there was no warning of violence :( when the fat king cat crushed the skinny one i cried
Знаете, мне очень понравилось, даже появилось ощущение после кампании, что я какой-то гений шахмат, прикольная и добрая игра, котики мило друг друга бьют. Буду играть еще. Спасибо разработчикам
