Gameplay

Fans of previous games will know exactly what to expect here. The main levels are separated into normal and advanced modes. Once cats are found in a specific building or area, the surroundings will light up with different colours. This signifies to players that all the cats in this area have been found, and to focus on the black and white areas to find the rest. Around 20 human characters are to be found as well. Finding specific cats in advanced mode will open up more bonus levels.

I enjoyed the bonus cat levels which feature more specific locations that resemble the city and culture of Berlin. However, similarly to Nukearts Studio’s last games, the last bonus level features 100 hidden cats and 100 people to find. The map is huge and whilst I liked finding the cats, the people can become a bit of a slog, as it is incredibly detailed and feels like a different game compared to the other levels. It is optional, but for those who want 100% all levels must be completed.

Visuals & Sound

Visuals in the main levels are bright and easy to follow which is one of the reasons why Nukearts Studio are my favourite developer for hidden object games. Noise volume for meow hints is great to toggle with and ambience and music can also be toggled which I enjoy, as I like to play these games while watching something in the background.


Playtime: 2.5 hours for 100%

Conclusion

Overall, Hidden Cats in Berlin is another fantastic and easy to play hidden object game for all ages. With great accessibility, audio options and visual aesthetic, I will continue to look forward to Nukearts Studio’s next game and discover which city they will cover next! Recommend for HOG fans.

Travelling to Berlin on a light rainy day, petting cats and visiting historical and cultural landmarks along the way. Besides the ordinary feline, we get to see special ones and interesting people. Playing this game makes you want to book a flight to Berlin. I just loved it!

PROS:
- Up to 1000 cats to find;
- Black-n-white to colored worlds;
- Engaging music and ambient sounds;
- Easy to learn mechanics;
- Easy to obtain achievements.

NEUTRE:
- In the train station minigame, after you collect all the cats, the title doesn't appear.

CONS:
- Nothing else.

As such, I recommend it to players that love cats and Hidden Objects!

Hidden object + cats + music = About 1-2 hours of finding cats hidden away. 2 levels with 7 bonus levels. Each area is colored in once all the cats are found in a certain area.
