Capsule Review: Cat Poke
A short (half an hour or so, depending on how quickly you figure out some of the more obtuse puzzles) and simple point-and-click adventure masquerading as a puzzle platformer. You must use all the tools at your disposal - various kinds of movement and light platforming as well as inventory-based puzzles - to poke each of the nine cats in the house. The control scheme is awkward and some of the puzzles require major intuitive leaps, but it’s quick and cute.
The game, originally on PC, was remade for mobile with a different art style and some control/UX improvements as Cat Poke HD.
I Stopped Playing When: I finished the game.
Two Stars: Meh. The game has some merit - it probably held my attention for at least an hour or I came back to it for more than one play session. But there wasn't enough draw for me to stick with it for the long haul.
