"Boxes Inc. tries to tap into the same vein as titles like Papers, Please, but this title does not have any of the charm or enjoyability. It feels like work, and there is little satisfaction to be had in its mailroom."

About

Cats in Boxes is a puzzle adventure where you guide curious cats through cleverly designed levels. Each room is a contained challenge involving physics, logic, and feline intuition. You manipulate objects to help cats reach hidden spots while uncovering snippets of their personalities. The gameplay loops are short but satisfying, blending exploration with problem solving. Cats react to your actions in quirky ways, making every playthrough feel fresh. The game stands out for its relaxing vibe and charming details. With over 50 distinct cats featured in early reviews, each with small backstories and mannerisms, the experience feels cozy without being overwhelming. Players on forums note the puzzles scale smoothly in difficulty, avoiding frustrating spikes. Since launching in April 2024, it has drawn praise for balancing simplicity with depth, with one Steam user calling it "the cat equivalent of a warm blanket." The portability across Switch and PC makes it an easy pick for casual sessions.
