A Cat & His Boy
A very short little side quest presented in a black & white Game Boy style, A Cat and His Boy puts you in the shoes paws of a cat, your owner – a little boy called Leif – has gone to sleep and you are left to roam the house and surrounding areas in vintage top-down Game Boy adventure style, coming across other characters and areas that require some pretty light problem solving.

A simple little title that can be completed in under an hour, A Cat and His Boy evoke the Game Boy style pretty tastily, with suitably chip tune music provided by Beatscribe.

Whilst this is a fun little game that touches on topics such as alienation and how an unstable household can affect the children involved, it’s such a breezy experience that things don’t get too heavy. 

Lovely sprite work and music push this simple adventure along at a nice pace, whilst its short length means it can be completed over a cup of tea – or perhaps a saucy glass of wine. Looking forward to seeing what Howdy Riceball dream up next!
