I tend to explore the darkest side of indy devs creativity in this blog, and this one is no exception. While the title and art style appear joyful, the events and gameplay display a deeply disturbed childhood. Here is a short introduction by the dev.

Cat Poke stars Molly, a little girl who is stuck indoors on a rainy day. Luckily, she has 9 cats in the house to mess with. The kitties are hidden around the house, so Molly will need to collect tools and think creatively in order to poke all the cats.

[image loading] [image loading]


The game features simple controls. Two directions, two action buttons plus an inventory. Traversing the house and it's puzzle-like rooms can be quite tricky and will require you to not only use you skills, but also you brain.

The reason as to why this game is so interesting is because it confronts the player with unethical actions. You have to "poke" the cats to advance in your adventure, but can you get yourself to push that S key? There's only one way to find out.

Interesting, I'm DLing it now. I've recently discovered that I like indie games (what a shock! ) [: Though all I know are Increpare. Some of the games are extremely silly, some disgusting, but some really make you think and have an effect on you.

One I'm thinking of is 'Make a Million Dollars', where all you do is gamble on the stock market to get up to a million dollars, and buy stuff for your house. It's totally pointless.

Surprisingly I even spent money on his newest creation http://www.englishcountrytune.com/ It's addictive, phenomenal, and the most difficult puzzle I've ever come across... over and over and over again.

found it too, but i can't get the cat out of the washing machine and i have no clue how to get the one under the bed :/

the one in the washing machine likes good smelling things, but if i put the scented candle next to it it just stares out of the machine and doesn't do anything (yes the washing machine is shut off already, but no clue how to advance ^^;

How to poke the one the washing machine:

+ Show Spoiler +
Get the candle, go to the kitchen, light the stove (jump+poke), light the candle in the fire and go back to the washing machine


Update: Poked every single cat! Hooray for me!! :D

Use the scissors to cut the yarn where mommy is sewing. put the yarn next to the kitty under the bed, she will start to claw at it. back up and put the yarn down again to lure her out.

ah thanks. i thought the whole time that a lit candle is too dangerous for a little girl and that there is a solution without fire ^^;

only remains the scared cat under the bed. i have no clue how to get it, since i have no item left that could help (only the ladder and the flashlight qq)

This game requires more random clicking than thinking imo
+ Show Spoiler +
how the fuck am i supposed to know that a girl can handle a freaking ladder 10x bigger than her?
And if you don't put the bed on the table the cat won't come to it, they have never hint this one cause i placed it on the ground. Apart from that, the only one i couldn't do is the candle cat
I hate all this singing

If you select each cat in the inventory menu, it offers a description with some kind of clue.

I don't get what's so deeply disturbing about this game, other than the fact that the mom molests the child at the end. If that's it, it's laughably obvious and kind of weird. Either way, definitely tacked on.

loved it :D the ladder was a bit random but part from that it was great. I love pixel kittens aswell :D

just didnt get the "pöke" rather than 'poke'. pöke is close to swedish hillbilly slang for copulating
