In the eyes of a time traveler, how does the world differ from that of ordinary people? This question arose by chance but became the core inspiration behind Cat of Khronos,a seemingly casual yet extremely challenging puzzle game.
How will you navigate past the temple guards and reach the finish line? Will you utilize obstacles, speed, or visibility? Or perhaps, try manipulating time in this game.
What inspired us: Pushing the boundaries of existing puzzle games
In a turn-based gaming world, if the protagonist is not bound by the constraints of turn order, how would their actions appear to NPCs who follow that order? For instance, imagine the protagonist taking steps towards an NPC, but their actions are reversed according to the turn order. From the NPC's perspective, would it seem like the protagonist is moving further away? If the protagonist completely disrupts the turn order and acts in a disorderly fashion, would they appear to be flickering about randomly in the eyes of the NPCs?

The same action taking on different appearances under different time sequences fascinated us. Building on this idea, we created Cat of Khronos.

Fun fact
We started off with this big, epic backstory and worldbuilding for our game, with all kinds of sci-fi stuff, conspiracies, love, hate, and revenge. But, we soon realized those things were way too overused in time-travel stories.
As a result, we ditched all that old stuff and decided to go all-in on something we absolutely adore: cats. Yup, we created this time-traveling cat on a mission to get those fish treats. How awesome is that?

We need your feedback
We hope that players can appreciate the simplicity and charm of our feline time traveler and enjoy the journey of puzzle-solving with a twist.
Admittedly, Cat of Khronos has a high learning curve. We have made several iterations of the tutorial, and the current version is the most effective.
We would appreciate the help of players who enjoy the game in figuring out how to make the gameplay and underlying thinking more easily understood by a wider audience. Additionally, if you have encountered any particularly interesting elements or level designs during your playthrough, we welcome you to share them with us.

Cat of Khronos - A Quick Game Review!
Cat of Khronos is a new puzzle strategy mobile game with lots of challenging stages to clear! At first, I was not that impressed by the tutorial of the game which felt quite complicated. I found the game to be quite unique as I had never played a game like this before and it was quite frustrating at first due to the complicated tutorial. But as soon as I figured the game out, the game actually started to get really interesting.

Instructions Unclear, got my cat stuck on an infinite time loop! Cat of Khronos Mobile.
Cat Of Khronos A unique puzzle game where you play as the Pet Cat of the Lord of Time, Khronos. Where every step counts and where every timeline coincides. My First Impression of the Game was, What the hell am I supposed to do in this game?! The instructions were a bit mistranslated as well and has confused me even more.. Okay, what... Because I could not understand the tips, I just experimented with it myself and finally figured out how to abuse the timeline to get to, what I hope was the most tastiest fish snacks in the whole parallel universes and get back to the portal home before it closes.

The challenging puzzles of Cat of Khronos had me playing with time itself - Pocket Playfest
If you really love puzzle games or want something to keep you busy during your free time, Cat of Khronos is the perfect choice. This brilliant puzzle game put me in the mind of a cat trying to get fish by manipulating time. That setup might sound cute and charming, and it is! Don’t be fooled into thinking that means Cat of Khronos is a walk in the park though. This game has perplexed me through its many well-made puzzles. And even without much in the way of guidance or help, I enjoyed the game’s tough challenges.
