Pawsome!

This game is great but even better when I play it in front of my cat!
I love all the cats you can get like mustiasio except you have to subscribe to be able to adopt the cats. Anyway it is an amazing game, I would recommend this to anyone.

PLEASE JUST LET ME BUY THE CATS

id rather just pay 99¢ for the game and be able to buy the cats with the cheeseburgers that i’ve earned PLEASEEE BRO

Pay wall on most cats

I used to love this game when it first came out! I redownloaded it for the nostalgia to find the unpleasant surprise of not being able to adopt new cats without buying a GamePlay subscription. Still an okay game but it killed the joy, probably will delete the app once it gets boring

Tomala tat qiiquiq

All the cats does the same sound.

Why is it bad now :(

I used to play this games when I was like 12 on my moms IPad, but for whatever reason now you have to pay like $4.99 a month to for game pass to adopt new cats, like what the heck that’s so unfair

Good game but has flaws

I enjoy playing this game a lot and it is one of my favorites, but it is very annoying how you are limited to so much while playing the game. In order to be able to do everything you have to pay a subscription. And I don’t think for a mobile game you should have to pay $5 a month.

Response from developer

HackyCat is part of a larger game subscription service called GameClub — all-you-can-play access to a large library of curated games (including HackyCat), with hundreds of hours of gameplay within the subscription. Though full access is only included with a subscription, we're committed to letting everyone "try before you buy" — to play enough to get a sense of the game free of charge. We also offer a free trial (that you can cancel at any time) so you can play as many of the games in our library as much as you want before spending any money. Hope you take a look at our other titles to give them a try!

This game was great till game club bought it

I played this when it first and out it was so fun and amazing but then game club bought it and now it’s awful firstly you can get more cats with out having a subscription and now basically you have to pay real money to win😡😡

Why am I rich?

I am rich with cheeseburger. And that is okay.

This game is satisfyingly demented and addictive

I’ve been been playing this game since it came out and for a while there it wasn’t updated with this iOS version so I experienced unfathomable sadness as you could imagine (as this game is definitely one of the staples of go-to amusement on my portable glowing communication devices)
so I am insanely grateful that it’s back and I’m glad I never deleted and kept it there even when it wasn’t working because I missed it. Just kept the app in my graveyard of Apps and refused to delete it and I’m glad I never did. This game rocks. I feel like your brain would be one I would pick. Props friend. It has wrought much delight. Glad it’s still supported. And hearts. <3 woo!

Kinda disappointing

Had this game years ago and remembered having loved it. Rediscovered it recently and now you have to pay to use most of the features! It’s rather disappointing

Hackycat

To address the review below mine, like the publisher has said, you only need to offer your email if you're signing up for GameClub. This is not required to play the game and if you previously bought the game, you can swipe over to the last screen on the GameClub pop up (that only appears the first time you run the game) and hit 'restore purchase' to get the update for free without signing up for the GameClub subscription.
They have handled these updates MAGNIFICENTLY. It's very rare when a publisher switchover happens and they give you ZERO reasons to be upset with how they handle it, however, that's exactly how it's been implemented with all of these GC games.

Now, as for the game, I bought this the day it was released because, well, I bought EVERY Adult Swim game that wasn't free the day it was released. And while at first I thought that this was one of the least impressive games that AS published, it grew on me. Quickly. And now I'm SO glad that GameClub has brought it back from the dead. I do wish that GameCenter or a dedicated server used for score keeping, because this is a PERFECT game for score chasing, but the unlocks will keep you busy for a while and then once you unlock everything playing to better your own score is great. 3 different gameplay modes (not including a training mode), and TONS of cats to unlock along with 3 different characters to choose from, each with their own perk that changes the gameplay a bit more.
I usually hate games that require a grind like this (and yes, I understand that the grind IS the game....) but in this case, the grind is actually incredibly fun.

And if you have subscribed to GameClub, this is definitely another game you should at least give a chance. And then another chance because you might not like it at first.... but it DOES open up a bit once you start unlocking things.
So.... after all that... THANK YOU GameClub for bringing this game back!!! And thank you to the original developer for actually creating this game! It's a blast!
=D

Privacy-invading

Demands you surrender your email address before it will even let you play the game. That is ridiculous. I can’t imagine why a developer would think that they’re entitled to my email address just to play a game on my own phone. I don’t know what the scam is, and I don’t want to find out. Deleted immediately.
