Copycat

About

Copycat casts you as Dawn, a pampered housecat whose quiet life unravels when a scruffy doppelgänger crashes her home. As the impostor schemes to replace her, you’ll sneak around sunlit rooms, nudge objects with paw-precision, and decode human behavior to reclaim your spot. The gameplay leans into feline instincts, knocking things over, hiding in boxes, and tail-based social cues, while the story folds in sneaky heists and tense moments of disguise. The game stands out for its deadpan humor and emotional undercurrents, balancing slapstick cat antics with themes of identity and isolation. It runs smoothly across PC, consoles, and Mac, with release set for September 2024. The twist of a cat-driven simulation, where survival means mastering both physical spaces and psychological manipulation, gives it a niche charm that’s easy to underestimate.
