The purr-suit of adventure

The titular Princess is an adorable grey kitty cat on a mission to rescue her frog family. As she jumps, climbs, purrs, sprints, and slaps her way through the breathtaking hand-painted settings of the game, Princess discovers that her beautiful home is under threat. The fate of the world rests in her fluffy little paws, and unfortunately, she doesn't have nine lives to spare - one hit and she's gone, keeping even the most skilful gamers on their toes.

 

Attention to detail - A mesmerising experience

Being an adventurous, curious cat, exploring a world filled with secrets and magic is second nature as the vistas come alive! Attention to detail has been a simple prerequisite of the developer, along with some truly inventive ideas that move the game forward in a seamless, intuitive way! . By purring, the cat's collar releases magical energy that transforms the environment, causing plants to bloom, bridges to grow, and pathways to emerge, allowing her to solve puzzles and traverse the mysterious world around her. Explore lush, hand-drawn biomes, each filled with obstacles, hidden pathways, and secrets to uncover.
