What’s Copycat about?

Copycat is an emotional, narrative-driven game about the meaning of home. It follows the story of a newly adopted shelter cat, who becomes the victim of an elaborate plan when a jealous, stray copycat steals her place in the household.

It’s a short emotional catventure about love, loss, and identity told entirely from a cat’s point of view. Guided by a nature documentary narrator, you’ll prowl through sunlit backyards and shadowy alleys in a heartfelt journey to rediscover what “home” truly means.

The game’s colourful visuals delight the senses while exploring dark emotional depths of the human condition. Wander alleyways, fences and rooftops as Dawn tries to make her way back home and be reunited with Olive. But when she arrives, will Olive recognise her? How will Olive make the choice between cats? Or was Dawn the copycat all along?

Key Features To Expect From This Purr-fect Adventure

Here is everything you can expect from this delightfully short catventure bent on sparking joy (and making you fall in love with cats if you already hadn’t to start).

  • Story from the heart: Copycat disguises itself as a simple story about a cat trying to discover where she truly belongs, but underneath lies a philosophical narrative layer that will make you pause and feel. It asks questions about our own existence and place in the world.
  • Animal expert narrates your conscience: Play as a domestic housecat while a nature documentary narrates your every move.
  • See the world through cat eyes: Climb trees, fight dogs, and explore the neighbourhood with intuitive, smooth cat-like controls. Make mischief, knock things on the ground, hide in boxes, run through the long grass, and meow at everything that moves.
  • Guided by your moral compass: Reflect on themes of home, loneliness and belonging through a complex, three-act story told effortlessly through three hours of video game narrative.
