### 5/5 — One little thing that made me restart

*2025-11-05*

One of the levels I got a key and it wouldn’t let me get through the wall but either than that good game I love playing this on rainy days.

### 5/5 — Amazing but somethings I suggest

*2025-07-09*

This is the most exciting platform game I’ve played but because there’s only 20 levels it is kinda short so I suggest some more levels every once in awhile so people can still play more after you finish the 20 also can you add a few more backgrounds there very nice how it is but it can make sure people don’t forget about the game and the new backgrounds can make it feel more new for other or new levels. Also can you add a bit more ninja to the ninjas because they don’t look like ninjas like it says in the description. This game is still amazing how it is so it is fine if you don’t want to add more levels and backgrounds. Thank You. :3

### 5/5 — Very cute and simple game fun for littles or a long car ride

### 4/5 — Remember that Barry loves you!

*2024-11-02*

Supremely adorable just needs to be less hard. Level ten is, by far, the hardest one for me. But, super cute, and adorably addictive. I have also played Super Cat Tales One, Two, and PAWs. I’ve finished SCT2, still trying to finish SCT1. Thank you for these amazing games!

*2021-12-19*

Hey Jionathan, if that’s how you spell it.
I’m Jameson. I used to be a… GIANT GIANT fan of these games. The only thing is that it has not too many ratings, so I don’t play anymore. I still love these, but that’s why I don’t have it anymore. Not to worry, I still love these games. Not still a GIANT GIANT fan, not a fan, but I still like these. If you didnt make these in the past, I
I would of not survived. Thanks a lot!
