To be honest, I have been diving in the forum for several years, and today I registered an account on a whim to talk about a game I recently tried, "Cute Cat Story". I'm not bragging, this setting of a cat turning into a handsome guy is quite novel in a female-oriented game, but maybe it's because I'm getting older, and my mind is filled with those old games from the past while playing. 😌
Let's start with “Cute Cat Story”. Made by Beijing Fujiaheju, all in-app purchases are free, which is quite conscientious. The picture is Japanese cute style, the world's famous cat transforms into a beautiful man to accompany you to run a store and fall in love. The plot brings about the conspiracy of the cat planet, anyway, it is just like a light-hearted cookie. A 30-year-old guy like me would blush while playing, but after playing for a few hours, I suddenly felt a little empty.
Can't help but think of those electronic pets we had on the small screen during the Symbian era. Around 2005, I used a Nokia 3220 to play a Java version of "Tamagot". It was a pixel-style game with daily feeding and bathing mini-games. There was no romance plot, but it was so simple to just raise a pixel cat and I could play it for a whole summer vacation. Later, I switched to a smart phone. When I was playing "Talking Tom Cat", I went to Tieba to learn the tutorial on how to earn gold coins, and hid under the quilt in the middle of the night waiting for its reply. Thinking about it now, the function at that time was so crude that even saving required a text message verification code, but every virtual pet lived in the memory as if it were real.
"Cute Cat Story" is actually very carefully made, the characters have distinct personalities, and the dubbing is not confusing. It's this routine of "cats becoming handsome overnight" that makes me feel a little uncomfortable in my old bones - it's not that I'm disgusted, but it reminds me of a Java game I played called "Cat and Dog War" back then. The pixel kitten competes with the dog for territory. If it loses, it will lose its hair. It's simple and crude, but I never tire of it. Now that the technology is better, characters can blink and interact, but the fun of making up the plot by yourself is missing.
How can I put it, the more exquisite the games in this era are, the more I miss the days when I could be happy just by pressing an icon on a button machine. But there is nothing wrong with the game itself. Young players will definitely like this eye-catching and worry-free love management. If you are a newcomer to the game, you can try "Cute Cat Story"; if you are of the same generation as me, you might as well use it as a nostalgic spice. It's free anyway. It's good to watch handsome cats occasionally to heal yourself. 😄
One final word: If Beijing Fujia Heju can produce a nostalgic limited skin and put the old pixel cat model into it, I will definitely be the first to make money. I don't know if the production team has such an unpopular idea, hahaha. 😅
