### 5/5 — Really cool and cute game

*2024-09-21*

You should get this game.

### 5/5 — Beautiful Game

*2023-08-15*

Nameless Cat is a wonderful game with a beautiful story and fun challenging gameplay (especially the final boss!). I highly recommend anyone play this game if you are a cat fan or not!

### 5/5 — By far the best mobile game I’ve ever played

*2022-07-13, version 1.8.0*

Everything about this game, from the music, to the art, to the story, to the gameplay was made with so much care and attention, it just blows my mind. I’ve played through it twice now and I noticed something new on almost every level on my second playthrough. By all means, download it, probably buy the ad-removal, since (from what I’ve gathered) it seems like it adds more lore and detail to the game too. It’s worth it.

### 5/5 — Best mobile platformer

*2022-07-02*

Amazing artstyle, beautiful music and good mechanics. So good!!!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-06-04, version 1.8.0*

Very wholesome, just also very sad. The ending was not what i expected, but it was still great. Thank you for developing such a great game for us and please continue this work.

### 5/5 — cried at the end

*2022-06-04*

please, play this game. <3

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-05-13, version 1.8.0*

Really hard but really rewarding. Some parts (especially towards the end) will have you stumped, but I promise it’s worth it. The music is amazing, too— atmospheric and somewhat meditative until you get to the boss fights, when it pumps up. Some serious bops in this game. 

I wasn’t super invested in the story, but the platforming is real fun. I just wish there was more! Also, I suggest buying the ad removal, as it not only supports the developers but just makes the game so much less frustrating (as ads sometimes play when you die, and I promise you’ll die a lot.) Good luck!

### 5/5 — So Incredible

*2022-04-23, version 1.8.0*

I come back to this game every year, and I could do this for the rest of my life. The music, the graphics, the boss fights, the characters, it all makes for such a cute game that holds a very dear place in my heart. I saw a review that says it has an Undertale vibe, and I wholeheartedly agree. It’s absolutely incredible and one of my top 3 favorite iOS games!

### 5/5 — A great game

*2022-04-14*

I loved it. Despite some of it being extremely difficult I felt that it was a great game that is extremely underrated. It actually is quite sad at the end though. But all in all I love it

### 5/5 — 5 stars

*2022-04-06, version 1.8.0*

This is a great game, just one thing, I’m stuck on a level so I wish they could add a button to see how to beat that level
