Schrodinger's Cat Burglar

Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1.29/day in the week to Aug 8 → 1.29/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.

Feels like an inferior portal game, having lots of hope and gripes, but its a tough call to give this a negative rating. The game is just too easy, solutions to puzzles are pretty obvious and the rest is just execution. I spent 4 hours immediatly cracking puzzles with bonus objectives and only got stuck for a minute once. A lot of it is just backtracking. Executions of solved puzzles also should not take this long, its downtime to just bore your brain. The devs were clearly afraid to make puzzles difficult and thats sad. Still the game has the potential to create very engaging puzzles and I want to see it realized, it feels like a rough diamond that needs some aggressive cutting to shine. The bigger offender is the writing, its too much and its not funny. Im certainly not reading some logs in a menu that have no relevant information beyond some cartoonish story flair. The antagonist AI character is offensively boring compared to the likes of Glados or Wheatly, who seemed clear inspirations. Just cut the dialog if you cant manage to write good one. Literally most of the advertised appeal is "haha cat funny", which is not enough to replace good writing. I also have no idea why they even attempted to shoehorn coop into puzzles designed for a single player, it makes no sense. Of the person will come up with the full solution and the other will just need to move one cat around (boring). Portal 2 coop was very ambitious and required both players to act indepently, with sometimes challenging navigation. It was designed for two brains and sometimes gave you slapstick situations from gameplay. This game does none of that. Also dont care about gathering coins for cosmetics. The reward is solving a difficult puzzle, not some cheap reward coins. Players would kill robo-mice for the fun of it, just cut the reward currency that kills intrinsic motivation. So while i would love exactly this kind of challenging puzzle game and all the pieces are there, they somehow missed the mark.
