Intelligence: Cats

In Brief

Intelligence: Cats is a casual sliding tile puzzle game

Intelligence: Cats was created by the same developer (Laush Dmitriy Sergeevich) of the four games we've been given over the past several days, i.e. Animals Memory: Dogs, Intelligence: Anime Girls, Intelligence: Underwater Kingdom and the wrongly labelled Animals Memory: Dinosaurs, that turned out to be another game called Intelligence: Dinosaurs. As today's game is basically the same as the Dinosaur, Underwater Kingdom and Anime games apart from the images, I'm not going to post a review of today's game; if you want more information about today's game just check out my mini review of Intelligence: Dinosaurs HERE and the giveaway teams description of Intelligence: Anime Girls HERE. You can see a video of game play HERE via the Steam store page. We get a free standing version of the game not a Steam key, so no Steam achievements.

Today's game is basically the same game as Intelligence: Dinosaurs, Underwater Kingdom and Anime Girls apart from the images are now cute looking cats instead of dinosaurs, underwater animals and anime girls. As I mentioned in the review's of the previous giveaways. I believe they should have been combined into a single game rather than splitting them up piecemeal. As a whole they are okay and the sliding tile puzzles can be quite challenging with respect to memory. If you like these sorts of sliding tile jigsaw puzzles then today's offering is worth downloading.

The developer has released several of these over on Steam as a bundle HERE (6 games plus sound tracks). Granted, they are cheap £0.79 to £1.69 games, but it would have made a decent puzzle compendium if they were included in one package (IMO). I'd have been happy to pay the going rate for a decent and substantially larger (w.r.t. content) casual arcade game (usually retailing at between £5 to £8). There were two Steam community reviews, one said This game improved my logical click much and the other gaves it a thumbs down and said :

Because the game randomly places pieces rather than mixing up a solved board, 50% of all generated puzzles are impossible to solve.

Useful Information not related to today's game giveaway:

Don't forget to check out the the latest Epic Games giveaway that this week is 'For the King' (a challenging blend of strategy, turn based combat and rogue-like elements). Next Thursday 1st May to this will change to 'Amnesia: The Dark Descent' and 'Crashlands'. Also check out Reddit's Free Games on Steam (these fluctuate over the week, so it's worth checking daily at this time as there have been quite a few developers offering their commercial games for free since the lock-down - if you see a game, just open your Steam client and search for the game in the store, if it's still available free you'll see that they are 100% off, the site is updated frequently, so if a game is no longer available it's usually tagged with an 'Over' icon. Hurry though because these free games don't stay free long. Once added to your account they become permanently attached). You can also get loads of free DRM free games from Indie Gala and HERE. They have recently added a few more games that look worthwhile, including an excellent marble popper on the lines of Luxor, but with a fantasy setting. (Delenns posted a link in the forums, see my links below to go there) There's actually two marble poppers, the other one being Corona Match a 3D version of marble popping that is quite challenging.
