About the Game

The world has changed, machines have rusted, and neons are buzzing... But cats still know the best hiding spots.

Find The Cat: Nightmare brings a dark, stylized twist to the classic Hidden Object genre. In these forgotten corners of a retro-futuristic society, your goal is simple but the atmosphere is heavy. You aren't searching for cats in sunny parks; you are finding them in the "Game Over" vault, inside the gears of massive machines, and under the flickering lights of broken arcade cabinets.

When the lights flicker, don't close your eyes. The only way to find them is to stare into the darkness.
