Move, plan and press GO! Pit Cat is a cat physics puzzle where timing is everything. Pit is a sleepy black cat with a talent for getting into trouble. He always sets off in the same direction, so you can't steer him: move the pieces on the board, press GO at the right moment and watch him bounce his way to the goal. Easy to learn, hard to master: some levels are a quick brain teaser, others will make you think twice. HOW TO PLAY • Move the pieces on the board to build Pit's path. • Press GO at just the right moment. • Inside a cannon the game pauses, so you choose where he flies next. • Collect every star to master each level. • Stuck? Ask for a hint. 100 HANDCRAFTED LEVELS Every few levels a new mechanic appears: • Barrels that send Pit where their arrow points (the golden ones can be moved). • Cannons where you choose which way he flies. • Portals that teleport him to the other side. • Sliding walls on rails and walls that vanish after one touch. • A power-up that makes Pit invincible, so he smashes any enemy he touches. • Spikes, cacti, saws on the move, dogs that run straight ahead and bees that chase Pit. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • A cute cat game for puzzle lovers of all ages. • Satisfying physics: plan every bounce before you press GO. • Quick levels, perfect for a short break. • A simple, charming style and a hero who always lands on his feet. Featured on Pocket Gamer: a cute puzzler that is genuinely challenging. Can you guide Pit all the way to level 100?
