About

pawpaw is a game made for cats. Set your iPad or iPhone down flat, tap PLAY, and little critters scurry across the screen for your cat to catch with a tap of the paw. BUILT FOR CATS • Ten critters to hunt: ladybugs, feathers, mice, ribbons, crickets, fish, lizards, butterflies, birds and a silent laser dot • Each one moves like real prey: it darts, freezes, twitches, hops and drifts • Critters rustle before they run in, and their sounds come from the side they enter • Hiding spots, like a box, a leaf pile, a lily pad or a snow mound, where critters can't be caught • Large critters, generous tap areas, multi-touch and drag-to-catch, so every pounce counts • Dark backgrounds and colors picked with cat vision in mind, and never more than two critters at once • Smooth motion at up to 120 Hz on supported displays • The pace adapts during a round, and a critter changes its look after a few catches in a row, so the hunt stays fresh FOUR PLAYGROUNDS Crate, Grass, Pond and Snow. Fish only swim in the Pond, and lizards only live on Grass. ROUNDS YOUR WAY • 30 seconds, 60 seconds, 2 minutes or untimed Relaxed play • When a timed round ends, one critter keeps roaming around the results card. Your cat catches it to ask for another round. Choose Keep going, 3 rounds or Stop. MADE FOR OWNERS TOO • Only you can leave a game: press and hold the house button. A quick tap from a paw won't do it. • Rounds pause when you're interrupted, and the screen stays awake while your cat plays • A profile for every cat, with a name, a face (orange tabby, gray tabby, black, white, calico or Siamese) and its own list of critters • Stats for each cat: rounds, catches, catches by critter, rounds in the last 7 days, favorite catch and best scores PRIVATE BY DESIGN No ads, no accounts, no in-app purchases and no tracking. pawpaw works offline, and everything stays on your device. PLAY SAFELY Always watch your cat while it plays. Claws can scratch screens, so a screen protector is a good idea. Set the device flat on a stable, low surface, keep sessions short, and stop if your cat seems stressed or frustrated.
