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/day in the week to Jul 25 → 0/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 2,400 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.
About

Aster is a talented mage who lives deep in the forest. Awkward and anti-social, he prefers poring over his potions to speaking with other people, and he’s at his happiest when he can conduct his strange magical experiments in peace.
Unfortunately for Aster, however, life isn’t that simple. Whilst working on a particularly potent potion, something peculiar happens. A black cat falls from Aster’s chimney, filling his home with soot.
In a moment of weakness, Aster decides to take the stray cat in. He’s always been more fond of animals than people, and having a catpanion hanging around the house might help brighten up his everyday life.
That’s what Aster thinks, at least…
Until he discovers the cute cat which fell down his chimney isn’t an ordinary cat at all. He is, instead, a young man called Blaise, who has been cursed to assume the form of a cat during the daytime.
Now, Aster has to try and help Blaise break this curious curse. If he doesn’t, Blaise will be stuck as a cat for all eternity, and Aster’s pride as a mage will be on the line. It’s just one simple curse, after all. How hard could it be to dispel it, really?
…The answer, as it turns out, is very.
This could just prove to be a cat-astrophe!

美好温暖的小甜饼童话故事ww只有曼德拉草受伤的世界达成了(? 整篇是没有选项的,比起常规的文字游戏,这个作品的ui和各方面,让人更像是看了一部可爱的小漫画。 猫猫真是太可爱啦w阿斯特也毛茸茸的w可爱的大家
欧洲幻想风味的短篇轻小说,一本道的小甜味,含糖量挺高。 50%off入手的话可能会更好。
My Confounding Cat is Criminally Cute! is super cute, super fun, super light. It's a refreshing, relaxing, and there's lots of cute art. If you want a straightforward, light-hearted, soft little story, it's a great visual novel to pick up and enjoy to just melt away your stress with.

[h1] A Cozy Magical Delight [/h1] [i] My Confounding Cat is Criminally Cute! completely stole my heart [/i] From the moment the story begins, you’re wrapped in a warm, whimsical world filled with charm, humor, and just the right amount of magical chaos. The art is absolutely adorable—every scene is a visual treat, from the cozy cottage interiors to the expressive character sprites (yes, even the cat ears are top-tier cute). The story is sweet, funny, and surprisingly touching. Aster’s awkwardness is endearing, and Blaise’s snarky charm makes every interaction a joy to read. Watching their relationship slowly grow from mutual annoyance to something deeper was such a satisfying experience. It’s a quiet, gentle romance, but it never feels dull—just comforting, like a cup of tea on a rainy day. What really stands out is the care the developer put into this game. The writing, art, music, and overall atmosphere blend so well. And on top of that, the developer is super responsive and kind—quick to help with any issues, which just adds to the whole positive experience. This game is more than just cute—it’s genuinely heartwarming and memorable. If you’re into BL visual novels with strong characters, a fun magical premise, and plenty of adorable moments, this one is 100% worth it. [b] 10/10 - I didn’t expect to fall in love with a catboy and a wizard, but here we are [/b]
Very adorable and straightforward. Would highly recommend for a cute, wholesome, lighthearted story.
the cutest art style and even cuter story. Had me giggling and kicking my feet the whole time! <3
This is a very sweet game that tells a simple story very well. Its art is wonderful and its characters are all lovely. One of the better BLs I've played.
the story spends a lot of time over explaining a lot of random details that dont even matter making it feel kinda longer than it needed to be. the main character is also not very likeable and treats his love interest like a punching bag throughout a large portion of the story and i get that its supposed to play into their dynamic but its a bit overboard at times and i think the characters could have been written better. by the second chapter i felt like i was trudging through the plot and really only felt that the third and final chapter was a worthwhile read. overall it has its occasional moments (also the UI and artstyle is adorable) but i was personally pretty dissatisfied with this vn
Reading this as part of the Fall in Love VN Festival 2025. ✔️ Played on Steam Deck, it works fine (30/09/2025). 'A' button to advance text and touchscreen for menu. The UI is super cute and well polished and the art is sweet and very charming. The story is simple and moves pretty quick since it's a short visual novel, but it's still an enjoyable read. Perfect choice if you're in the mood for a cozy BL romance with a happy ending.
Yep, I prefer lesbians but it was nice. 8/10
