I Am Cat

I Am Cat is a simulation sandbox game from NEW FOLDER GAMES LTD in which you play a house cat let loose in Granny's home. The house is the whole playground: you explore its rooms, take on quests and cause as much trouble as you like. It came out on the Meta Horizon Store on December 5, 2024.

How it plays

Almost every object in the house reacts to physics, so you can scratch the furniture, knock over vases and plants, throw books, cook, jump around and carry things off in your paws. How you treat Granny is your call: sneak around and steal from her, play hide and seek with her, fight her, or try to become her friend.

• Quests written for a cat that test your curiosity and problem solving.
• Hidden secrets and puzzles spread across the rooms.
• Mini-games around the house, including football, basketball and catching a mouse.
• Online play with friends; the store text mentions lobbies of up to 20 people and a newer map with extra activities.

Note that the store listing classes the game as single-user even though the description talks about online lobbies, so check the latest store page if playing with friends is the main draw for you.
