GOOD Points: 1. Charming and Heartwarming Story 🐱❤️ Purring Quest takes players on an emotional adventure, following the journey of a lost cat searching for its owner. The story is simple yet touching, making it especially appealing to cat lovers. 2. Beautiful Hand-Drawn Art Style 🎨 The game features gorgeous, hand-drawn 2D visuals that bring its world to life. The animations are smooth, and each environment is designed with attention to detail, creating a cozy and immersive experience. 3. Relaxing yet Engaging Gameplay 🕹️ While it’s a platformer, Purring Quest leans more towards a slow-paced, exploratory experience rather than fast action. Players navigate through different levels, avoiding obstacles, solving simple puzzles, and interacting with other animals. 4. Great Soundtrack and Atmosphere 🎶 The soothing and well-composed soundtrack perfectly complements the game’s relaxing nature. It enhances the emotional depth of the story while keeping the gameplay enjoyable and immersive. 5. Cat-Like Movements and Mechanics 🐾 Controlling the cat feels natural, as movement is designed to reflect real feline agility. The game incorporates climbing, sneaking, and jumping mechanics that make you feel like a real cat exploring the world. 6. A Treat for Cat Lovers 🏡🐾 Throughout the journey, you’ll encounter references to real-life famous internet cats, which is a fun touch for feline enthusiasts. The game is filled with small details that make it a love letter to cat lovers. BAD Points: 1. Controls Can Feel a Bit Clunky 🎮 While the animations are beautiful, sometimes the controls can feel a little unresponsive, making precise jumps and movements harder than they should be. This can lead to occasional frustrating moments. 2. Short Playtime ⏳ The game is relatively short, and experienced players can complete it in just a few hours. While the journey is enjoyable, some may wish for more levels or additional content. Conclusion: Purring Quest is a delightful and visually charming platformer with a heartfelt story and relaxing gameplay. While it’s not the longest or most mechanically refined game, it delivers a cozy and emotional experience—especially for cat lovers. If you enjoy beautiful hand-drawn art, relaxing platforming, and heartwarming narratives, this game is a great choice. 🐾🎮💕 Final Rating: 7.5/10

La musica es muy relajante, se nota el cariño que la gente que hizo el juego tiene, no solo por los gatos (que si jaja se nota muchisimo y me encanta) sino por su trabajo. Encontre el juego de casualidad y fue una muy linda experiencia, espero dentro de poco comprarme tambien su nuevo juego Stars in the Trash!

The Purring Quest is a good platform game where you play as a cat thru 5 chapters: a cemetery, a village, a gothic quarter, a city and skyscrapers. It's funny, the drawing graphics are nice and the ambiant is great. I recommend it!!! 💗🐈💗

An emotional journey of a pet cat, very humorous writing and challenging yet fun platformer game. Controls are sometimes clunky but it's bearable. You can slap mouses and have to sneak past dogs to reach your destinations. Recommended to purchase on a sale. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3356817929

I recommend this game only if your skilled and can Handle Slippery controls. First, i love the are adore the cats and the devs put there hear in it for sure. But the controls make the game too difficult for me to enjoy. I watched a lets play instead. Again let me say that's my handicap as I was fighting the controls to get the cat to jump right. The panio is brutal on people with disabilitys. I am thankful the devs offered a save to help me get past it though kudo's to them. I realize it's a small group and regonise the work that went into this game. That's why i can still recommdend this game because they also donated some of the profits to charity. The Devs all ahve cats and its ther labor of love so I can't not recommend this game.
