Cats can be pretty smart animals, but I believe they have yet to pass the mirror test. Explaining this test would make the review wordcount longer than that of the game, so to give the short version, it tests whether an animal looking into a mirror knows that it is looking at a reflection of itself. A cat probably thinks it's looking at another cat.
Amusingly, that's largely what this story is about, as you play as a cat confronted with a mirror. It's a branching choicegame, with different options and different endings depending on how you decide to respond to what you see. All in all, a short but cute read.
Entries to the jam this game was a part of, the Neo-Twiny Jam, were limited to a maximum of 500 words. This game was executed perfectly with those constraints.
Delightful, simple, very short playthrough. You can get all the endings in a few minutes, and I found doing so very enjoyable. I had my husband play to see what ending he would get as well. He doesn't play interactive fiction, but this one was very accessible for him and I could tell he was immediately charmed by the writing. I will be inviting other friends to try it as well. :)
