Along with all of that, we get a look at how the kitty will be going through all of the darkness of getting adopted and then ousted by the local strays out there. Also, with the loss of having a home in the moment, and various other things that we will have to deal with while prancing about the game world.

Copycat — Console Launch Trailer
Copycat is an emotional, narrative-driven game about the meaning of home. It follows the story of a newly adopted shelter cat, who becomes the victim of an elaborate plan, when a jealous, stray copycat steals her place in the household.
The game’s colourful visuals delight the senses while exploring dark emotional depths of the human condition. Wander alleyways, fences, and rooftops as Dawn tries to make her way back home and be reunited with Olive. But when she arrives, will Olive recognise her? How will Olive make the choice between cats? Or was Dawn the copycat all along?
