I've played quite a bit of The Cat Lady now.
I agree with ***Karla's review at JA***. Maybe not the A+ grade, but an A or A- with restricted recommendation due to the violent images.

The Cat Lady is not a typical horror game or a typical adventure.
It's violent in places, with themes of death, madness, dismemberment, and mutilation. Some of it takes place in the character's mind, some in her normal life, and some in a mysterious world in between life and death.

There is a lot of dialogue, and not that many puzzles other than figuring out where to go or what to do next.
But if you have an interest in psychological horror, it's a great game to play. It is a mature themed game for several reasons.

The disc version is DRM-free and you don't need the disc in the drive to play.

I hope you enjoy it, Mad. It will probably startle you in an unexpected way fairly early on. The voices and sound are very well done. The graphics may look primitive at first glance, but they actually work very well with the game.

It's not a point-and-click but it's not a 3D game either. You move with the Left and Right Arrow keys. You look closer at things with the Up Arrow (a picture of the Up Arrow appears on screen when there's something to look at). Labels pop up on screen when you're close enough to something to interact with it. You move to inventory with the Down Arrow, and move between items with the Left and Right Arrows. You move between conversation choices with the Up and Down Arrows. The Enter key selects objects in inventory or conversation choices.

Not everyone is going to enjoy the game because of the real and implied violence -- but it's not gratuitous. It's not a "fun" game, but it's one where the story and characters are so believable that you may find yourself thinking about them outside the game.

Thanks, Jenny100. Those "controls" instructions will be very useful thumbsup

I am hoping to enjoy the game. It will be a change from Fantasy and Fairytale styles grin

Thanks for the tip m0ds! I'm a little hard up right now so I try to look out for sales whenever I can.

Hi Fellow Boomers. I just finished "The Cat Lady", at least it was only ONE of the endings. I will play through the alternate endings today. This is one of the most fascinating games I've ever played. The graphics and the sounds enhanced this exciting game. I think it was brilliant as to how this was made. I bought it from Desura as a download, and had absolutely NO issues with the installation and the actual playing of the game. I referred to MAG'S two chapter WT,and then relied on a transled WT that was originally in the Dutch language. HAPPY GAMING!
Sandy

Hey sandy. wave I'm still playing, near the end of the game. So there are multiple endings? I wondered about that, does it depend on the different dialogue options you choose throughout the game?? And where are these walkthroughs you found? Because the only ones I've found are YouTube videos of the game, which are not at all good for the occasional nudge. smirk
