Doctor Cat

About

Doctor Cat casts you as a feline therapist who solves quirky puzzles to help cats deal with their problems. Each session involves piecing together jigsaw puzzles that reveal snippets of a cat's personal story. The mechanics are straightforward but gradually introduce twists like timed segments and shifting puzzle pieces. The cartoonish art style keeps things light even as the tales tackle themes like anxiety and loneliness. The game's charm comes from its mix of simple puzzle mechanics and heartfelt narratives. Released in July 2023, it's available across multiple platforms including Switch and PlayStation 5. While the puzzles don't grow extremely complex, the emotional beats in each cat's story give the game staying power. Early players note the soothing vibe makes it a good pick for casual sessions.
