Cat’s Meow 2 is the sequel to the previous game, Cat’s Meow. Continuing from the previous game, player assumes the main character of the game, who got overly obsessed with cats after taking care of the neighbor’s pets while she was away for holiday. And due to the obsession, the main character dreams about becoming a cat in the land of Dreams, and food were spawning from the clouds all over the place. Assuming the role of the cat, players are required to eat as much as they can, within the time limit given and achieving the objective of every different stage.
Player begins the game as the cat shown in the dream sequence, with the instruction manual shown in the beginning of the stage. Every stage has a different score objective, and there will be a timer in which player who fails to reach the objective within the time limit will not be able to continue to the next stage. Each time the stage begins, the cat starts off with a constant movement speed.
There will be one bonus item, which is the boots that spawns at certain time that would increase the movement speed of the cat. Getting this bonus item would help the cat to navigate faster and hence, getting more scores.
But in every stage, there will also be negative items, which would be the spoilt food that would drastically reduce the movement speed of cat. The slow movement effect remains until the player catches another pair of boots or if the time limit is up. And as the stage proceeds, the number of spoilt food increases.
