For some reason seeing those tiny lil feets from this POV is even cuter than from the bottom lol

Can we get Catsassins Creed Felhalla, all the tropes of AC, but from a cats perspective, sneaking through cities and windows performing heists from the humans.

Have you played stray?

u/RedditGarboDisposal Mar 05 '25

Is your question implying that there is a game where you play as a cat that mirrors assassins creed gameplay 1:1?

281

u/El_Scrapesk Mar 05 '25

It's not exactly 1:1 AC, you play as a cat where you get to jump around on buildings in a cyberpunk style city solving puzzles and generally causing chaos. One of the best games I've ever played and you can complete it in around 5-6 hours.

Stray made me think in terms of being a 20cm tall super athlete.

That’s essentially what a domestic cat is

They can jump so high it’s equivalent to a human leap frogging over a giraffe and have such incredible spatial awareness they can turn themselves mid-fall to land on their feet because their vestibular senses are off the damn chart.

Also they’re one of the most critically invasive animals on the entire planet. The havoc and destruction they have caused in ecosystems all around the world is nearly unmatched by anything but humans. They are single-handedly responsible for at least sixty-three extinctions including the near extinction of another cat variety.

Cutest critically invasive murder machine possible

Cats also have a reflex impulse that has significant overlap with snakes. So they can strike as fast as, or quicker than, a snake can strike. Of course, that also means some cats aren't quite as fast as snakes...

A semi spoiler, but not really, because it's a game, and almost every game out there has death:

You can turn off the "death" animations. Idgaf if people are dismembered with limbs flying about in games, but a little orange fuzzy dude? NOPE. Turned that crap off right quick.

Also, and this is the single spoiler I required to play the game: does the cat survive? Yes, the cat survives

u/Send_heartfelt_PMs Mar 06 '25

Thank you for pointing out that you can turn that off!

u/digitalgraffiti-ca Mar 06 '25

I was NOT GOOD at the part where you have to run and dodge those little fatty lump creatures. I died so many times.

u/SparkyMularkey Mar 06 '25

OMG, you can?! That's amazing. Game changer, literally.

2

u/babybluedaisy Mar 06 '25

Really wish I knew this I was horrified

1

u/cloudysasquatch Mar 06 '25

I didn't know you could turn off the animation, I saw it the first time and immediately said "no." I got good and didn't die again. Not a single other game has ever made me lock in that much, but I will never see that animation again

2

u/digitalgraffiti-ca Mar 06 '25

The problem is that it's controller based, and I suuuuuck with a controller.

2

u/cloudysasquatch Mar 06 '25

I lucked out then, I'm consol so exclusively use a controller. It also helps that the mechanics were easy to figure out, otherwise I don't think I would have been able to finish the game

2

u/digitalgraffiti-ca Mar 06 '25

I'm glad you did. It was a great game

1

u/cloudysasquatch Mar 06 '25

It really was, I wasn't expecting such a strong message from a game where I just wanted to be a cat

u/GrumpyOldHistoricist Mar 06 '25

Oh shit. I might actually play the game now. I’m very, very not squeamish. But I’m also dad to three orange boys. Definitely not watching that over and over.

1

u/digitalgraffiti-ca Mar 07 '25

I mean, the deaths aren't horrifying and gorey, they're just the cat flopping over. But I don't need to see that, because it just makes me sad. At one point the cat limps for a minute, but apparently is magically healed and then he's fine.

It's mostly just running about, solving puzzles, interacting with NPCs who are utterly puzzled by your existence in the cutest way possible, and knocking shit over. At one point you can walk through paint and leave little footprints in your wake. It's cute AF, and I highly recommend it.

u/whyamiawaketho Mar 06 '25

Absolutely fantastic game.

2

u/MikeyFromWork Mar 06 '25

It’s no where near AC at all gameplay wise or exploration wise. It’s linear as hell. You can’t jump and go where you please

u/Secret-Weakness-8262 Mar 06 '25

Is it on Nintendo?

3

u/Alarming_Employee547 Mar 06 '25

Yes it’s on switch

u/Secret-Weakness-8262 Mar 06 '25

Cool. I only play Zelda so far as I’m new to games but that sounds so cool.

u/__01001000-01101001_ Mar 06 '25

you can complete it in around 5-6 hours

I get the feeling you’re much better than me at games

u/DoneWithIt0101 Mar 06 '25

I think there's even a 1st person mod for it.

spoiling the ending in a comment thread recommending the game to new players is a bold move

u/TheScrambone Mar 06 '25

Let’s see if it works out.

u/haneybird Mar 06 '25

Don't play Stray if you want a game about being a cat. Stray is a game about post apocolyptic robots where you happen to control a cat.

Little Kitty, Big City on the other hand is a game about being a cat.

16

u/calilac Mar 06 '25

Seconding that recommendation! It's such a lovely low-key game. I'd also like to add Catlateral Damage! It's not as beautiful or polished as Little Kitty, Big City but it is silly fun knocking over all the things.

u/idwthis Mar 06 '25

Thank you for the rec!

u/agnocoustic Mar 06 '25

I bonded with my 3 yo nephew playing this game. He especially loved tripping people up and stealing their phones. Definitely a highly recommended game for all ages.

u/aeschenkarnos Mar 06 '25

That looks like a cat version of that hilarious goose game!

u/YetAnotherDev Mar 06 '25

That looks awesome, ty!

I couldn't get past the first bad guys. Had to stop playing  😞

u/things_U_choose_2_b Mar 06 '25

I just couldn't get into it. I played for about 4 hours, fun concept but it just felt really boring. Maybe I needed to give it more time.

Valhalla but you're loki shape-shifted as a cat, and you have to cause a whole viking war through mischief

Little cute bird assassins.
