About Schrodinger's Cat Burglar
Schrodinger's Cat Burglar is a puzzle-adventure game from Abandoned Sheep that launched on December 31 2026 for PC and Linux. You play as Mittens a cat who accidentally gains the power to exist in two locations at once after a quantum experiment gone wrong. The game blends environmental exploration with logic puzzles as Mittens navigates a world full of robotic pest controllers. Its co-op and multiplayer modes let players collaborate or compete in heist scenarios. The quirky premise and physics-based gameplay make it a standout in the puzzle genre.
Gameplay
The core loop involves using Mittens' dual-location ability to solve spatial puzzles. Players split their time between two points to manipulate objects trigger traps or distract enemies. For example you might use one form to block a laser while the other sneaks past. Each level forces creative thinking with time limits and robot patrols adding tension. Controls are straightforward but the quantum mechanics require precise timing. Multiplayer lets partners tackle puzzles separately or together while co-op challenges focus on synchronized actions. Sessions last 30, 60 minutes with a mix of stealth and problem-solving.
What Players Think
Schrodinger's Cat Burglar holds a 87/100 rating with 91% of players completing it. Average playtime is 12 hours but some spend over 20. Community moods are split between "trippy" (38%) and "frustrating" (22%). A review from The Puzzle Vault calls it "addictive but punishingly obtuse." Critics praise the quantum theme but note inconsistent difficulty spikes. The achievement list includes 52 items with completion rates at 89%. Some players complain about glitchy physics in co-op but 76% of multiplayer sessions end with all participants rating the experience positively.
PlayPile's Take
This game is for puzzle fans who don't mind a steep learning curve. At $19.99 it's a low-risk pick for those who enjoyed games like The Witness. The quantum mechanics are fresh but can feel clunky in practice. While achievements add replay value some puzzles border on unfair. Stick with it if you like cerebral challenges and don't mind occasional frustration. Multiplayer shines when partners communicate well but solo play remains the most polished mode.
