About

CAT Pattern Hunt

Features
Read full description

Every tile looks familiar. Only the right order makes a CAT. CAT Pattern Hunt is a focused letter-grid puzzle built entirely from three letters: C, A, and T. Find hidden C → A → T sequences by swiping across the grid horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. The board looks simple, but every tile can seem like part of the answer. Read the direction carefully, find every CAT, and finish with fewer mistakes and a faster time. CHOOSE HOW TO PLAY • Classic — find every CAT at your own pace. • Time Race — beat the countdown; each CAT adds more time. • Zen — play without a timer, score, or leaderboard. • Memory Training — memorize the grid, then reveal individual tiles for five seconds. • Daily Challenge — complete three levels and compare your result for the day. BUILD YOUR PROGRESS • Adjust the board size and number of hidden CATs. • Keep a daily streak and earn Paw Points as you play. • Spend Paw Points on hints, time boosts, memory peeks, and streak protection. • Submit scores to optional leaderboards. • Play quick rounds in portrait or landscape. Simple rules, many possible paths, fresh standard rounds, and a new daily challenge each day. How quickly can you find every CAT?
