Cat Meow-tilation

Cat Meow-tilation is a cat-collecting game based on “Cats” and “Red Light, Green Light.” You play as a U-O alien sent to Earth to gather data on cats, whose importance may help save the aliens’ home planet from an invasion by rat-like creatures. The cats keep their eyes on your fish head, so you need to avoid getting too close and being pounced on, which incurs a time penalty.

Catching cats

You hide as cats approach, reveal yourself when they dash, and capture them while their guard is down. You can guide and lure them, or use items to attract them or freeze them in place.

Time and score

Collect as many cats as possible before time runs out. Catching several at once earns a score bonus, and reaching certain score milestones triggers a Maneki-Neko (Beckoning Cat) Bonus. If you’re lucky, it brings a massive horde of cats. You can collect cats from your preferred camera perspective.
