The game ‘Cats & Soup’ was released on October 12, 2021. Originally, this game did not receive a lot of attention but later on received more attention due to being posted on TikTok.

In this game you begin with an island, located in what seems to be the middle of woods. You receive your first stand, the soup stand. With every stand you receive, or buy, you also get a cat. The first cat and stand you receive will give you what is known as bland soup; it is called that because nothing has been added to it yet. By selling the soups the cats create you are able to buy more stands. The first few stands you will be able to buy are vegetable stands that will be added to the soup. Adding vegetables to the soup will make soup prices go up earning you more money.

Once you have received every stand for the soup you unlock the juice stand. The juice stand allows you to make juice from any vegetable that you have. The juice will also earn you a greater amount of coins.

The cats you will receive will all have a special ability which will give them a small boost. For example, if you get a cat that is very skilled at chopping carrots, placing that cat in that stand will give a small boost of coins.

By earning coins you are also able to unlock more fun stuff for your cats and yourself such as fishing ponds, arcade games, clothing, room decorations, and even pets for the cats.

The game also gives out daily gifts if you log in every day; these gifts can be anything from coins to furniture and clothes.

A new addition to the game are baby kittens. You are able to send the kittens to other countries to explore and take pictures, but be aware that the kittens’ energy takes a while to recharge from their previous adventure. Although, right now, you are limited on what you can do with the baby kittens, I think it’s a great addition.

Overall, this game is a really relaxing and fun game. The sounds of this game are my favorite as you are able to hear the cats meow and the bubbling, chopping, and blending noises they make when they are cooking. The music is also very enjoyable. I think they do a great job creating a nice calming ambience. I would give it an 8/10.

You can get this game is available for both Apple and Android products.
