How to play Playful Kitty

There is very little to learn before your first run. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. If a round goes badly, restart — attempts are cheap and it is usually the fastest way to improve.

Why it is worth playing

The reason Playful Kitty holds up is restraint: it takes one idea — animals — and builds the whole game around it instead of padding it out. It is not trying to be anything larger, and it is better for it.
