I Am Cat

I Am Cat is a light simulation game where players experience the world from the perspective of a house cat. Instead of traditional goals or time limits, the game allows players to explore a small domestic environment, interact with objects, and observe humans in everyday routines. The focus is on interpreting the world through feline behavior—napping, knocking over items, hiding in unexpected places, and following personal instincts. It’s a quiet, open-ended experience that invites players to relax and engage with their surroundings in a different way.

Everyday Life Through a Cat’s Eyes

Players take control of a cat living in a cozy home shared with a human family. The house is fully interactive, offering drawers to open, furniture to jump on, and plants to destroy. Movement is fluid and flexible, with players free to nap in sunbeams, perch on shelves, or swipe objects off tables just to see what happens. Much of the gameplay is observational—watching how humans respond to your presence, or lack of it, and deciding when to engage or vanish.

Subtle Choices and Reactions

Although there are no missions or dialogue trees, the game still responds to player behavior. Repeatedly scratching the couch may trigger a human to react, while bringing a toy to a certain room might encourage someone to play. The game doesn’t rely on instructions, instead letting players explore and slowly uncover how different actions affect the home. This subtle interactivity creates a sense of connection without ever removing the cat’s independence or mystery.

A Calm, Replayable Experience

I Am Cat doesn’t aim to be dramatic. It’s meant to be replayed at different times of day, with shifting routines, weather, and subtle environmental changes. Some playthroughs might focus on playful mischief, others on quiet observation or finding hidden corners of the home. The game offers moments of calm and curiosity, letting players shape the experience through mood and motion rather than structured progression.
