The Cat Lady

Even though I initially wanted to buy the game simply for its title, The Cat Lady turned out to be one of the finest games I've played in years. Although the voice acting occasionally falters, the eerily perfect soundtrack, brilliantly suitable art, and the darkly gripping story more than makes up for it. Ultimately, the player can't help being moved by this darkly hopeful story.

This game is awesome. The graphics are completely dated and the controls are old school keyboard driven. But the story, characters, and twisted events are incredibly well done. This game is downright horrific, and I'm not talking like Dead Space or Fear. I'm talking Silence of the Lambs type stuff. The game is very realistic as far as story and character writing goes, and takes you on an emotional journey as you experience Susan's life. The voice acting is excellent, with just the right emphasis and tone in every line. The music is good too, lot of rock to it with vocals. The game is general quiet other than ambient sounds, but the music picks up just at the right time for that theatrical effect. You'll find yourself cringing at certain points, like watching a horror movie. The killers in this game are some really twisted individuals and you'll feel a real disgust for them. Most of the puzzles are easy in this game, which works out pretty well as 90% of the enjoyment is progressing the story, more so then bashing your head on a wall solving a plethora of puzzles. It plays like some kind of movie, where you get sucked in and can't wait to see how it all ends. If you enjoy well written dialog and an exceptional story, then I highly, highly, recommend this game. Seriously, stop reading this and buy it, you can thank me later.

*My first review ever in GOG* This game was the best Adventure / Horror game I've played in the recent years! Gameplay is awesome, you can play just with the arrow keys and has NO pixel hunting. You won't need a Walkthrough for the game, it's fairly easy if you keep up your attention. Story and characters are fantastic, I fell in love with the 2 main female characters, they were so well worked on. This game made me feel that Silent Hill 2 vibe all over again. I recommend it to horror game lovers, adventure game lovers, and great story lovers. Game is perfect in my eyes, and I can't wait for the next game from R. Michalski.

This game really touched me deeply on a emotional level, which is not easily accomplished.

This is not a feel good game. But it is one of the best games I have played lately. The Sound effects, music and story are just awesome. The puzzles have logical solutions. Do yourself a favor and try this game.
