You control two orbs. They're connected by a stretchy, springy tether. Drag one, and the other gets pulled along for the ride — whether it likes it or not. Both orbs need to reach their exits. Sounds simple. It is not. The tether isn't just connecting them — it's your secret weapon. Wrap it around pegs. Slingshot an orb around corners. Use tension, leverage, and a little creative chaos to solve increasingly devious mazes. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT Most puzzle games give you buttons. Tether gives you physics. The elastic connection between your orbs creates emergent solutions — there's no single "right answer." Wrap, stretch, fling, and occasionally panic. GRAB A FRIEND (OR AN ENEMY) Hand your friend a phone. In local multiplayer, each player controls ONE orb. You'll need to talk, coordinate, and try very hard not to blame each other when things go wrong. The tether transmits every tug — you can literally feel your partner's bad decisions through haptic feedback. Relationships may be tested. We accept no liability. 50+ LEVELS OF "OH, COME ON" Five handcrafted worlds that start friendly and end personal. Star ratings reward speed and efficiency for the overachievers. The rest of us just want to survive. THE FINE PRINT • Satisfying spring physics that feel great to play with • Minimalist glowing visuals — pretty enough to screenshot, clean enough to think • Haptic feedback so good you'll feel the tension in your thumbs • Works offline — puzzle in the woods, on a plane, wherever • No ads. No in-app purchases. No energy timers. Just puzzles. • Built with love by a tiny studio that thinks games should respect your time Download Tether. Stretch your brain. Try not to snap.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tether at none against Cat Evolution!'s 1. Tether also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Cat Evolution!'s advantage is ratings volume (23K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cat Evolution! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Tether asks for nothing beyond the download.
Tether holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cat Evolution! has 23K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
