Description: It’s not about you. Sure, you want to use your wit, agility, Dynatron Shield and Cyberite Chopsticks to survive The Chef’s Deathtrap Dinner Theater. You’d do anything not to become the cuisine du jour, Feline Nigiri.
But it’s not about you. It’s about saving thousands of other hastily evolved cats, enslaved in gladiatorial games aboard the 1950’s leisure cruiser, the Starliner Fairbrother, a generation ship overdue for the promised land of Alpha Centauri. More importantly, it’s about saving the one you love, LeChat, held hostage to rein in your rebellious tendencies. Today is the day Kitty steps up, the day Kitty flips the script, the day Kitty rises as a champion, a hero, and a saviour.
Review: If you have a fondness in your heart for rainbow kittens maybe ‘Kitty Nigiri’ is worth a look. This odd little adventure game sees you as a space cat collecting sushi and solving some pretty easy puzzles along the way. This is one of those games that slow and steady is best and to many, this slow pace might not be what you are looking for. There is something to love about Kitty Nigiri for sure, but I just don’t think it is anywhere near the £6.99’s worth of love. If you can grab it in a sale I do feel it is worth a look, but only if you are really looking for something…different and slower-paced.
