Cat Quest 3’s style is its calling card, but the surprise comes from its addictive and unexpectedly deep gameplay systems and mechanics. It’s a full-fledged ARPG with cat and pirate trappings. Fans of felines and suckers for swashbucklers of any age should enjoy the adventure. Cat Quest 3 releases on August 8–International Cat Day.

Twinfinite: 4.5 / 5 by Alpay Dedezade

Despite a basic story and simple combat, Cat Quest 3 is a charming adventure that you'll want to spend as much time as you can exploring.

Gaming Nexus: 8.5 / 10 by Eric Hauter

Cat Quest III serves as a fantastic introduction to this charming franchise. With surprisingly deep combat, intriguing exploration, and wild story turns, the game kept me up far later than I intended for several nights in a row. Appropriate for the kids, but good enough that Dad soon booted the kids off the controller and took over. If you can stand the endless puns, this is a great, breezy action RPG that will entertain the entire family for hours.

Full Review

Cat Quest: Pirates of the Purribean is the third part in a series of feline action RPGs by indie studio Gentlebros. It was published by Kepler Interactive, the publishers of Sifu and Scorn.

Plot

The game is set on the Purribean - an archipelago full of rat pirates searching for a long lost treasure, the Northern Star. The playable feline privateer sets out there as well alongside their spirit companion. They must be careful, however, as the Pi-rat hordes won't let them explore peacefully.

Mechanics

The gameplay revolves around exploring the open world, fighting enemies and searching islands in search of purrecious treasures. During our adventure we'll explore various items and secrets dungeons filled with riches. The loot includes new equipment (like a blunderpuss), spells and outfits to distinguish ourselves from other purrivateers. To reach some of them we must face the pirates hunting us.

For the first time in the series, the player can sail the seas and battle enemies aboard their own ship. The combat system has been reworked, introducing combos and switching weapons.

Cat Quest: Pirates of the Purribean is non-linear, letting us follow our own paths as according to our wants and needs. Exploring the map and acquiring clues scattered throughout the archipelago gradually brings us closer to the mysterious Northern Star.

Game modes

This game supports singleplayer and local co-op on a shared or split screen.

Technical aspects

Cat Quest: Pirates of the Purribean features charming, 2.5D cartoonish visuals. The gameplay is made more epic thanks to the atmospheric soundtrack.
