I don't really know where to begin for this one.

Little Kitty Big City is a good game. It's not perfect, but it's fun and, overall, quite good. My enjoyment of the game stems a lot from the circumstances of the time when I played it. My cat had just passed away the same day I began my playthrough.

Jupiter was a naughty boy in his life, and LKBC let me play as a cute, sweet, loved, and naughty cat. I contextualized the entire game through the love for my cat who was no longer around. It was like I was playing with him again.

I could probably write a lot more about Little Kitty Big City. I could talk about what it does right, what it does wrong. I could talk more about Jupiter, about the complex emotions brought up by seeing him manifest on screen as a black kitty. But I don't really want to. I've been tired and sad, and this game simply provided me with some joy and catharsis at a time where it was sorely needed. I will be forever thankful that a team put so much love into this game and then that it reached me at exactly the right time.

Sleep well, Jupiter.
