The Cat Lady is a PnC tale of horror and suspense. The controls are simple enough for the most casual players, without any hot key memorization. The puzzles aren't overwhelming. Nothing is hidden away in a pixel hunt. With all that being said... The storyline itself is simply amazing. The game plays out like an interactive novel with extensive dialogue exchange. Parts of the story you can write as you feel fit, while other parts have your fate predetermined. Not knowing which parts creates a suspense of making a... Correct decision. You'll have to earn the trust of some, while you may want to be careful who you lie to, and how. Attention to detail is rewarded. There are some shock horror scenes too, but they pale in comparison in terror when you have to make a decision between bad and worse. I do have to give a heads up for the more casual players. This game earned a legit +18 age requirement. I'm not saying it is law to be obeyed, but rather the content is very intense. Graphic violence/brutality, gore, anatomically correct human dissection, animal abuse/brutality, sexual situations, nudity, drug and alcohol use/abuse, judgmental clowns, and a recommended firm grasp of the Oxford English language. Seriously. I love the horror genre, but wow. This game is truly made me squirm just a bit. That being said, you know you need to play through it at least once.
