Cats get up to all sorts of mischief, whether they’re indoor or outdoor cats. In Little Kitty, Big City, an indoor cat steps—falls—into the outside world for the first time and has to get back home. This is the fun cat game we’ve all been waiting for. Read this review to find out why!
THE WEIRDEST CAT EVER. (Little Kitty, Big City)
What is the story behind Little Kitty, Big City? It’s about a small, indoor cat trying to find their way back home. They’re lost in a Japanese city and need help from the various animals that live nearby. It’s a simple story, but it doesn’t try to be something it’s not. This was always supposed to be a modern, funny, silly cat game, and it is.
There are, however, a few elements to the story that I didn’t expect when I played it. Each of the animals you interact with is unique, and they ask for your help in exchange for theirs. You get to know the animals well enough to understand their personalities, what they care about, and their motivations. That’s about as deep as Little Kitty, Big City gets, though. You’ll meet a Crow who’s obsessed with Shinies, a Tanuki who wants to change space-time, and a baby duck who loves to fly.
It’s wholesome. It’s supposed to be wholesome, and that’s why it gets a high story score. There’s nothing dark about this game; it’s just one of the best cozy games for Switch and PC on my list.
