Earlier today, I delved into the world of Super Farming Boy, a unique blend of action, puzzle, and farming simulation, highlighting how mobile platforms are becoming a fertile ground for genre experimentation. Just when I thought that would be the most intriguing game of the day, I stumbled upon something even more unusual: a musical point-and-click adventure about a cat lost in space!
"Adventures of a Cat in Space" is exactly what the title suggests. Due to a series of unfortunate events, you take on the role of a cat stranded in space. With the help of the ship's AI, voiced by Arthur Darvill, known for his role in Doctor Who, you'll navigate the galaxy, explore alien worlds, and solve puzzles to find your way back home.
And yes, it's a musical! This all-ages adventure doesn't just challenge you with typical point-and-click puzzles; it also features 11 unique songs crafted by children's composer David Gibb.

"Adventures of a Cat in Space" will launch with a lite version, a nostalgic nod to older gaming styles, allowing you to experience the first chapter and get a feel for the game's core mechanics. While I can't predict how well it will cater to young puzzle enthusiasts, I'm confident that many adults will appreciate the game's quirky humor.
You can find "Adventures of a Cat in Space" on the iOS App Store, though there's no news yet on an Android release. If you're eager for more puzzle-solving fun, check out our extensive list of the top 25 best puzzlers available for both iOS and Android!
