The Good:
Simplistic old-school rpg. A Skyrim like catventure.
Lots of cats that need your help in Felingard (= 62 side quests).
Visit furbidden places. Explore dark caves (= 52 dungeons).
Furry nice selection of armor / weapons (= 66 armors / weapons).
Overal pawsitive vibe. Relaxing to play after work.
Good sounds and mewsic.
Runs nearly purrfect on older hardware / APUs (played on an AMD Ryzen 7 4800U).
The Bad:
Unfurtunately combat, quests and gameplay get repetitive quickly.
Could use more variety (e.g. traps, biomes and enemy types).
Lacks the option to bring a pawtner / furend into your game (= online co-op).
After playing for a while, you add cat puns into your everyday conversations.
A lot of places to catnap. Purrhaps a bit too easy for the first playthrough.
Can't rebind keys by default. Can only select 4 magic skills at a time.
The Verdict:
Pawsome cute little rpg for younger kittens and old cats alike. Why not pick it up right meow?
Score: 7.5/10 paws
P.S. Every positive paw of this review may save one kitten. :)

Pandemics are scary. Cats are comforting. Slaying dragons as a cat gives a sense of control and comfort in this crazy world. 10/10 would use as an emotional escape tool again.

ABOUT THE GAME AND RECOMMENDATION:
Cat Quest is essentially an extremely simplified and streamlined version of top-down action role-playing hack and slash games. It is designed for people looking for a relaxing and casual gaming experience.
I personally had fun with this game so I would wholeheartedly recommend it.
PROS:
+ Beautiful and adorable art style
+ Fast and fluid combat (melee and magic) complemented by smooth animations
+ Good music and sound design
+ Open world map that encourages and rewards exploration
+ Unique item system where, instead of getting new gear of the same type, your current gear gets upgraded
+ Great magic/spell mechanic that makes all spells equally useful regardless of your chosen playstyle
+ Due to its simplicity, it is a great game to introduce relatively young players to top-down action role-playing hack and slash games
+ Runs well even when played using old hardware
CONS:
- Gears purchased from shops are entirely RNG based (i.e. like the gamble stores in Diablo and Torchlight), purchase or sale of specific items is not an option
- Your characters’ class, and your gameplay, is based depending on your gear (normally I would not have issues with this but considering the CON above and below, it does become a problem)
- GRIND GALORE; to get the best possible equipment for your preferred playstyle, be prepared to grind for gold
- Audio bug that may require you to validate the integrity of your game files every time you load up the game
- Quest types are limited to mostly fetch quest and search and destroy missions
NEUTRAL:
+/- Easy to learn and understand gameplay (although it becomes repetitive after a while)
+/- Adequately lengthy campaign, albeit with a cliché story
+/- No online co-op (thought the sequel game Cat Quest II has one)
+/- Cat puns, a lot of cat puns

Holy Crap this is GOOD.
Kind of open-world-ish Action RPG (no turned based battles here!) but with dungeons, quests, some sort of storyline, LOTS of gears to loot, LOTS of dungeons to crawl.
And the best part: THERE'S A ROLL BUTTON
HELL YEAH THIS IS CAT SOULS
Right now i've just cleared a lv60 dungeon as a lv25 all because of that dodge button. Learn the patterns of each enemy, some have a fast attack at the beginning, some dont.
Also if an enemy is strong against your sword, then it's probably weaker to magic and vice-versa!
Dress up your cat, try out all gears! Everytime you find a REPEATED GEAR, it UPGRADES YOUR GEAR INSTEAD
Shit's amazing.
And for bloody's sake when you're around lv15/17, do the blacksmith subquests, after the fourth one she gives you an unique armor that will help you on your endeavors.

An enthralling little game about your life and destiny as a cat warrior-mage-ranger-champion-ninja-god-whatever suits you!
It's full of fashionable kitties, cat jokes, wholesome humour, cuteness and, of course, enemies to battle, quests to complete, loot to collect and land to explore.
This was a gift from my fiancé and it's proven to be such a joy to play during this quarantine. Definitely recommended. Can't wait to finish it, get all the achievements and then move onwards to Cat Quest II! ♥

Cat Question is an action RPG that's cute and contains a lot of cat puns.
The combat is simple, fun and satisfying. Attacking enemies restores mana which can be used to cast spells for healing, damage or attack buff. The enemies give a visual indicator for how large their range is and how fast they attack so you can dodge out of the way. Some enemies will be resistant to physical or to spell damage.
The quests are your standard go there, kill that or collect this. The game will offer you skills for faster map traversal as you progress the main quest. There's plenty of side quests and dungeons you can explore and buying equipment at the blacksmith comes in lootbox form, spend gold to get a random item. Getting an item duplicate will increase that item's level and stats, so you won't need to worry about inventory management.
The story is light hearted, has plenty of different game references and lots of cat puns. It surprisingly has a twist ending.
For achievement hunters:
Collect all the weapons and armors, complete all dungeons, side quests, reach level 99 and complete the game 4 more times (you can stick to main quest only) on Mew game plus for Furry Armored and The Old Master
