A detective cat. Five mysteries. Zero patience for pigeons. Something's missing and nobody's talking. Was it the innocent neighbor? The fat cat pretending to sleep? Or that suspicious pigeon who shows up at EVERY crime scene? In Paws&Clues you investigate scenes, question suspects (including animals who won't cooperate) and decide who's guilty, with the risk of getting it hilariously wrong. 5 cases with original stories and hand-drawn illustrations. Suspects with alibis, motives and false pigeon confessions. A countdown timer where the faster you solve it, the more stars you earn. Each case unlocks the next so go back and improve your score. Available in English and Portuguese. No internet required. New cases coming soon! Think you can solve them all with 5 stars? The cat doubts it.
