Sill Cats

About this game

Sill Cats is an always-on desktop app in which tiny cats move into your computer's desktop. They pad along the tops of your open windows, curl up and sleep soundly in some corner, and perk up—"what's that?"—when your mouse moves. At 2 in the morning they'll suddenly tear across the screen at full speed. Yes, they really do get the zoomies. If you've ever had a cat, you'll probably just get it. What these cats are likeThe whole desktop is their walking course — they stroll leisurely all over your desktopJumping onto windows — they explore your workspace as they please Curious about the cursor — when the mouse moves, they might quietly sidle up… or might notClick to play with them — one click to catch their eye, two for a reaction, three and they just might actually play with youTheir mood shifts with the time of day — liveliest at dawn and dusk, and utterly lazy at midday (this is what's called being "crepuscular")Late-night zoomies — a sudden sprint around 1–4 a.m.; count yourself lucky to catch it Fine with a big screen — no matter how many monitors you have, every one becomes part of the cats' walking courseThey usually stay out of your way, but every now and then they'll bat at your cursor. Please cut them some slack there. They're cats, after all.If you find a cat you love, give it a name and make it your very own.Adopt two cats for freeSill Cats is free to start. The first two you can adopt are a sleek Abyssinian and a dashing Tuxedo. Once you're smitten, you can grow the family through breed packs.
