Double Dagger Studio’s cat adventure is available on PC via Steam, Xbox, Nintendo Switch and PlayStation, though the platform details differ by storefront.
What is Little Kitty, Big City?
Developed and published by Double Dagger Studio, Little Kitty, Big City is an adventure about a cat exploring a city while trying to find its way home. The developer describes it as an adventure, story, comedy, tiny open world and sandbox game. Storefront genre labels vary, so those descriptions are more useful than treating it as a single narrowly defined genre.
The central choice is whether to head home or explore first. Nintendo, Xbox and Steam use the publisher’s question: “Will you make your way home or will you explore what the big city has to offer first?”
What can you do in the game?
Players can roam the city at their own pace, meet animal characters, take on quests, customize the cat with hats, take naps and get into mischief. These are the activities described in the official listings; they do not establish additional mechanics or a particular play style beyond exploration and sandbox play.

Quick Recap
Rank #4
- BUILDS PLANNING & SEQUENTIAL THINKING — Cats & Boxes develops five STEM-connected cognitive skills with every puzzle: planning, logic, spatial insight, problem solving and concentration. Because you move the box pieces one at a time — and each must fit back on the board before the next move — you have to think several moves ahead and picture the whole sequence, the multi-step reasoning that underpins mathematics, coding and logical thinking. It's so much fun to play, you'll forget you're building real skills.
- DESIGNED FOR AGES 7 TO ADULT — 60 CHALLENGES TO WIZARD LEVEL — Starter challenges solve in just a few moves; Wizard challenges make you cover a cat with a box only to move it again later, and genuinely test adults. Early challenges welcome a 7-year-old; the hardest push seasoned puzzlers. One game the whole family puzzles through together, each at their own level.
- MOVE THE BOXES, HIDE THE CATS — These cats are dying to get into a box! Choose a challenge and place the cats and box pieces on the board as shown. Then move the box pieces around — one at a time, each fitting back onto the board before you move the next — until every cat is tucked snugly inside a cardboard box. Plan the order carefully, because you'll often need to cover one cat, then shift that box later. One solution every time.
- THE PERFECT TRAVEL BRAIN GAME FOR EVERY GENERATION — Everything packs into the compact case with a lid — just close it and go. It's ideal for planes, road trips, restaurants and grandparents' houses, with no loose pieces to lose. The same puzzle that builds a child's planning gives adults a satisfying screen-free challenge and offers older adults an engaging mental workout that helps keep the mind sharp and active — a purr-fect, thoughtful gift across generations.
- AWARD-WINNING BELGIAN DESIGN — Cats & Boxes comes from Raf Peeters, one of SmartGames' most celebrated designers, who set out to create something complex from very simple rules. From SmartGames, the worldwide leader in multi-level logic games, with 30+ years of award-winning design from Belgium, trusted by families, educators and puzzle lovers in 80+ countries. Portable case included, plus a free companion app with hints for the trickiest challenges.
