About Hiding Banana Cat

The goal of the game is to move the glasses on the grid so that the Banana Cat can stay open as long as possible. It will move around the grid randomly, so you will need to react quickly and move the glass so that it does not close. Move the glasses like in the classic 11-element puzzle where you have to move only one element at a time. But you should take into account that the Banana Cat can move in any direction and at any time, so you need to react quickly and move the glasses. The game “Hiding Cat Banana” offers an exciting gameplay that requires a quick reaction and the ability to analyze the situation on the go. Try your hand at this exciting game!
