By our reckoning, there are upwards of 70 different ‘cat’ games available on the Xbox Store, whether that be with a feline protagonist front and centre, or with little kitties hiding away. Today, another gets added to that list – and this one is on the Cat’s Request.
Available from the Sometimes You team is Cat’s Request. It’s present and correct on the Xbox Store as of today, playable on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. It’s also on PlayStation and Nintendo Switch if you prefer.
Feline Detective?
Priced at £8.39, Cat’s Request sees you playing out the life of a feline detective, Ash, as he and his virtual assistant find themselves living in a world governed by AI. It’s this which allows for the most peaceful of existences, until that is a virus hits home. As a detective, it’s up to you to work out what is behind the arrival of this virus. Do so, and you save the world. Or something like that.
Switching between Ash and his assistant will be key to success in Cat’s Request, as you look to tick off tasks, complete missions and suchlike. The key features should help give a little insight into what is on offer – this is definitely a different experience to the likes of Stray or the Hidden Cats games.

- Complete tasks and get paid for them
- Create items in the generator
- Monitor your mental health
- Fantastic adventures and an unexplored world await you
