The King of Cats is a short visual novel inspired by animal horror films and Michael Crichton’s classic novel, Jurassic Park.
Doctor Kemp is a millionaire wildlife biologist with a love for big cats. He just bought a litter of tigers for a unique business opportunity in Mexico. The only problem is the deal isn’t exactly legal.
He assembles a team to smuggle the tigers aboard a cargo ship and escort them across the ocean. But when a storm hits early in the voyage, the tigers break free and the hunt begins. Navigate the claustrophobic corridors of a vessel with man-eating tigers on the loose. Your choices will determine who lives and who dies.
This is an approximately 9,000 word story with two major endings.

Positive:
🐯 The King of Cats is an atmospheric visual novel where you navigate a tense situation aboard a cargo ship after dangerous big cats break free, blending horror and choice‑driven storytelling with multiple possible outcomes.
📖 Short, focused narrative with branching decisions gives players a clear reason to explore different endings.
🎯 A small set of achievements provides straightforward goals tied to story outcomes and choices.
Negative:
🔁 Gameplay is almost entirely reading and selecting choices — interaction beyond narrative choices is limited by design.
⚙️ Its horror elements are atmospheric but light compared with full‑length story horror games, so the experience feels brief.
🏆 Completionists & Achievement Hunters:
There are 4 Steam achievements to unlock, tied to different story paths and outcomes including surviving or causing maximum casualties.
⏱️ Players who move straight through the story and choices can unlock everything in about ≈1–3 minutes, while players who take their time exploring all choice paths and endings may take ≈5–15 minutes to see everything and unlock all achievements.
Overall:
The King of Cats is a compact, choice‑driven visual novel with a horror theme and clear short‑form goals. It’s well suited for quick sessions where you want a narrative experience with multiple endings and fast achievement completion.
