Man, Catz on Game Boy Color takes me back—remember when virtual pets were basically the coolest thing in your pocket? You pick this scruffy little kitten (or a weirdly cool-looking one if you’re patient with the selection screen), and suddenly you’re in charge of keeping it alive. Feed it, play with that janky little ball toy, and try not to let it get too miserable while you’re stuck in math class.

The pixel art’s actually kinda charming once you get used to it, and there’s something weirdly satisfying about watching your cat grow from a tiny furball into… well, a slightly bigger pixel furball. Just don’t forget to check on it, or you’ll come back to a very grumpy, very digital feline. It’s simple, but that’s the whole point—like a Tamagotchi, but with more meowing.
