Summary
Have you ever wanted to jump on someone’s mantelpiece and throw their knick-knacks on the floor? Welcome toLittle Kitty, Big City, an open-worldindie gamewhere you play as an adorable little kitten on a mission to cause as much trouble as possible. Don’t be fooled by his cute appearance; this cat is out for chaos.
Double Dagger Studio did an incredible job creating a world brimming with opportunities to make mischief, most of which are shockingly accurate to how cats actually behave. From tripping strangers to robbing convenience stores, there’s no shortage of hilarious troublemaking activities to keep you smiling.
8Steal Things From Houses Or Stores
Everything The Light Touches Is Yours
The first rule of being a cat is that anything within reach is rightfully yours. A pair of slippers in a stranger’s house? Yours. A cucumber from the supermarket? Also yours. Toilet paper from a public bathroom? You better believe that’s yours.
If you can pick it up, it’s yours for the taking. Feel free to rummage through someone’s personal belongings or help yourself to some fruit from the local convenience store. Just verify you don’t get caught; otherwise, you’ll be back on the street empty-handed. Or empty-pawed, in this case.
7Swipe Things Off Of Ledges
It Probably Wasn’t Important Anyway
Swiping objects is not only anessential skill for beginners to learn, but it’s also the easiest way to be naughty. Almost every shelf and ledge is filled with objects that the kitty thinks would look better in pieces on the ground.
Save for the occasional puzzle or side quest, swatting items doesn’t do much except make life harder for those around you. Fragile things will shatter when they hit the floor, often forcing whoever’s around to clean them up. It’s oddly satisfying, and after a while, you won’t be able to stop yourself from knocking everything over.
Considering how many things I’ve swatted in Little Kitty, Big City, it’s safe to say this is my favorite mechanic in the game.
6Trip People And Take Their Phones
On The Bright Side, You Can Call Them An Ambulance
Every once in a while, humans get a little too big for their britches. Luckily, the kitty is here to give them a dose of cold-hard humility. Whenever you see someone walking down the street, you can swipe their leg to send them face-planting on the ground. Ouch.
If that wasn’t enough, your victims drop anything they’re holding, which you’re able to then claim as your own. Sometimes, they only have a sandwich, but you can also grab their cell phone if you’re lucky. Be sure to bolt out of there before they get up, though.
5Walk Across Wet Cement
The Building’s Design Needed A Few Paw Prints
This cat doesn’t just want to cause chaos; he wants to be remembered. Thankfully, you can memorialize your paw prints by visiting the construction site right after you give the tanuki three feathers.
If you manage to sneak through the area without detection, you’ll eventually reach a long strip of wet cement, which you can use as your own personal playground. Feel free to run around, draw a picture, or attempt to write something. Whatever you do will forever be preserved, literally cementing your legacy. You evenget a trophy for doing so.
4Pounce On Birds
He Tawt He Taw A Puddy Tat
The war between cats and birds is a tale as old as time, and this kitty is particularly ready to fight. As you explore the city, you’ll come across tiny blue birds hanging out in the street. True to a kitten’s nature, you’re able to pounce on them if you’re careful.
First, you need to steal a bagel or piece of bread from someone. Next, place the food on the street and find somewhere to hide. After a few seconds, a bird will appear and start pecking at the snack. That’s your chance to sneak up from behind and catch them.
3Rob A Supermarket
I’ve Heard Of A Cat Burglar, But This Is Ridiculous
Who’d have thought that such a cute kitten would stoop to a life of crime? Shortly after you obtain the ability to climb, you can do arguably the most evil thing in the game - break into the cash register at a supermarket.
After you strut into the store, jump onto the counter and hop on the register. The till will open, displaying a huge wad of cash just begging to be grabbed. When no one is looking, swipe the money and make a run for it. Next stop: Vegas.
2Destroy An Arcade Machine
That’s What It Gets For Stealing Your Quarters
Arcade fans beware. You’re in for a scare. This puzzle happens duringthe duckling side quest. One of the adorable little birds won’t go home until he finishes his favorite fighting game. Needless to say, the kitten is not having it.
If you leap onto the pipes and follow them until the end, you’ll find a red valve. Turning it causes a leaky pipe to burst, soaking the arcade cabinet in water. The moral of the story? Cats are terrible for game preservation.
As a long-time arcade fan, I found this one genuinely painful to do. Don’t try this at home.
1Walk Across A Keyboard
The Gibberish Really Enhances This Work Email
Every cat owner can relate to this one. You’re sitting at the computer typing a very important email when, all of a sudden, your kitty decides that your keyboard is the perfect place to stretch. Now, it’s your turn to mess up someone’s work.
Anytime you see a laptop, hop on the keys and add some much-needed gibberish to their boring old writing. Surprisingly, the humans don’t get as mad as you’d think. Nonetheless, it’s a delightfully mischievous and highly accurate Easter Egg. Rest in peace, work email.
