Game Description

It's Halloween, and black cats shouldn't be outside in the middle of the night. There's still time to wander and say hello to friends before you need to be home, though.

Originally inspired by the cautionary posts that go around on social media each year urging black cat owners to keep their furry friends safe indoors, you play as a black cat with a (somewhat) careful owner. The privilege to be outdoors past nightfall was lost following an attack on a friend, but you can deal with that.
