Gameplay

Little Kitty, Big City is a third-person adventure video game where the player controls a black, domestic cat that is lost within a large Japanese city. The player has to navigate the cat back to its home, but they can also interact with the city and do typical cat actions, such as catch birds, jump into boxes, steal food and play with their tail.[1][2][3] The player can also communicate with other animals in the city and may dress up in various hats.[4][5][6]

Development

In an interview with KING-TV, Double Dagger Studio founder Matt Wood said that the main inspiration of Little Kitty, Big City was his cats Mario and Roxy and his children.[7] On November 13, 2021, it was shown off at the indie Wholesome Games event during its Wholesome Snack showcase.[3][8]

In a Indie World presentation on April 19, 2023, it was announced that Little Kitty, Big City would be releasing for the Nintendo Switch.[9] A demo of the game was showcased at Summer Game Fest 2023, where it was slated to release in early 2024 for both Nintendo Switch and Windows, as well as the Xbox One and the Xbox Series X/S.[10][11] A demo of the game was made temporarily available during Steam's Next Fest from June 19, to 26.[12][13]

Reception

Lauren Aitken of PC Gamer favorably compared the game to Untitled Goose Game, praising its art style, quests, and animations.[12]
