Do i have to download the game so i can play it ?
I think, i played it before without download, but i don't know anymore, how i done it...
Yeah, you have to download it. If you played it online somewhere, it was probably a site like newgrounds or something
Ah okey.
Thanks for the reply : )
Just out of curiosity is this a one pairing between the MC and Cynthia or is it a harem?
Just a one pairing
That's makes sense, the reason I asked was cause of that Miyu girl where she has a crush on the MC.
Wow, I always though of me as the only person asking for a sequel. But here I read the chat history and there are so many people craving for it! Should be worth a reconsideration, I think.
this was such a masterpiece of a game, I swear to god. my friend recommended it to me and i started playing it because i thought it was gonna be another one of those copypaste horny stories but just one chapter in I realized, "wait, this is actually pretty good". This is so well written, better than Nekopara, where Nekopara felt entirely fictional, the characters in this actually act more like a real person, and I think that's excellent writing. I love this game, and I would have absolutely paid money for this. I will soon move on to the extra fluffy edition, thank you for making such a great game Artie♥
Game is a masterpiece. I saw the other comments and I noticed the dev ain’t respond but is there gonna be reboot? It’s been like 3 years since the last chapter but regardless it. A good game.
Haha there hasn't been another update because the game was finished 3 years ago. Nothing left to update.
And no sequels or reboots for it. It was always meant to be a stand alone story.
☹️ Fair enough nonetheless good game m8
I only want to mention, I would be highly interested in a sequel too. In thee case you would change your mind for whatever reason... Catgirls are mesmerizing and relationship really interesting.
Thank you
r u making another cat maid game?? Game too fire for it jus to be 1 story 😂😂
game is so fucking good I’m depressed it’s over. !!Please where’s the discord!! so I can talk about my feelings in it. Btw Ik this is a single story but please make sequel. If you don’t, it’s fine but good job man amazing game.
Also if you do respond, your story telling, art, and story writing are all amazing. Again circling back to my encouragement of you creating or considering a sequel. Please don’t feel pressured if you don’t want too it’s completely fine but I just think you could lead the story somewhere.
Despite what you do, the game is amazing and your an amazing game creator thanks for sharing this with us.
Thank you very much for reading and then commenting on it! I'm glad you enjoyed it so much!
No problem, but please consider making a sequel your amazing . Love ❤️
I came for the 18+
I cried for the story.
Me too :D
After I downloaded it, I fell in love with the story and got obsessed, I honestly don't think I can stop replaying it now
Great game with an amazing story, I hope you continue making awesome novels like this!
Thank you. I'll do my best.
If you want me to emphasize, maybe make more of an in-depth and personal review, just say so and I'd be happy to.
Really enjoyed this, right up until a certain point, then it kinda derails for me. I know it's been out for awhile but I'm still hesitant to mention spoilers. Meh.
*Blegh* I had way too much to drink last night, why am I writing this now?
It's really really good, it captures you well, so well I won't even do the bad endings. Just refuse. (Damn near killed me on my way to a good one, can't do a bad one :p )
*Grumble* Seriously, I'm hungover, have a friggin headache like you wouldn't believe. You've never seen me drink, you have no idea how bad this is, I'm just glad my phone is on always darkmode.
There's more than a few spelling issues and at least one box without a name suggesting a thought but it's supposed to be a person talking.
*Glares menicingly at the rising sun* yep, that was a bad idea, probably as bad as writing this long ass ranty review, comment, note, letter...thing.
I still want to rant so bad about the thing! >.< ARGH damn you for this awesome story, I would definitely kick down your sand castle if I saw you making one!
*Burys head under pillow* normally, I'd read over everything I've written, but that's not happening. I'm not sure I'd expect someone to read this when not hungover, much less like I am now.
Thank you for the great story regardless.
*Rants more in hungover* Should have just done this a week ago when I beat the game, but nooooo, smart guy here decides to wait until the worst possible time to write this rather than when I would have had plenty of time to plan this out, talk it out with the two other people I know that have played it, got their thoughts and opinions on things.
Well, alrighty then. Thank you.
10/10
Loved the story. Its like there was a connection with all of the characters.
The art is so cute! <3
It was a great story, wonderful! I can only hope you will change your mind about a sequel someday...
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Will you ever release another game as a sequel, this was great and Its sad it ended.
Sorry, just a single story. I'm glad you enjoyed it though!
This game was amazing and imo the story was really good so I had to get the DLC. It's sad now that the story is over but it was a good experience. It would be cool if we could get another story following the events of good ending 1 or something seeing how the characters live after it all. But overall thank you for the game UncleArtie and best of luck in your future endevours.
Thank you very much. I'm glad you really enjoyed it.
Great game! Can we ask how to you get the other endings? I got only one.
Thanks! There's some walkthroughs on steam if you have an account. There might be some more if you google it. Other than that, it's just experimenting with the choice.
Thank you for the reply.
I loved this game so much. Thank you for all your efforts. Looking forward to your new games!
Thank you for checking it out! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
This was a really good game, It's rare to see a game that is lengthy enough to feel like a full story, be well written, and have good art all at once. I really liked it. I'm curious to see if you ever do anything like this again, maybe even revisit this story, after your current project. Also, this itch page really doesnt do the game justice lmao, im surprised I found it.
Sorry for the late reply, time got away from me there.
Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. What do you mean by the itch page doesn't do the game justice? I'm not sure what you mean by that.
I guess its what I meant is its just a simplistic page in terms of how it looks, almost made me overlook this game haha. I guess its more a me thing than anything. Regardless, I'll say again, I loved this game, and its story has been living in my head rent free since I finished it lol.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks again for playing!
I really like this!
Thanks!
this was a masterpiece, but when will you make more thrillers like these? will "thrillers" is weird to puut it... It's good to say the least :) but will you ever make a new game of some sort to this? with the.... "action" innit?

What is the name of all the music used in it? I like the soundtracks so much.
There's a music gallery in-game that should have all the song names in it. It's in the extras menu
Ah, ok. Thank you.
Pls i really want to play im depress i got break up in my gf
Hi uncle arti can u pls fix the adroid version:(
Hi why its not working in (android)
If the game keeps crashing on android, then it might be your phone isn't compatible with it. This has happened multiple times in the past and that always seems to be the case. I recommend just playing the PC or Mac version and saving yourself the trouble of dealing with that.
It work now thank you i use pc
when i finnish the game i will buy extra fluffy
Thank you. I hope you enjoy the story!
I downloaded this game but when I press on the exe. it doesn't work just does the loading animation then nothing happens send help
Which one did you download? PC, Mac or Android?
Nvm the ol restart computer and redownload trick worked thanks
I'm glad it worked out
Question: How many possible heroines are in this game? And possible endings? Just wondering since couldn't find the answer to these questions on the internet.
By "possible heroines", I'm going to guess you mean characters you can romance. Just 1. There are 4 possible endings.
Uh im having issue with my game... Am on an oppo phone (android) and for some reason my game crash right at the beginning, the farthest i have go is: "this is just a dream, little human" then ot crash, this repeat endlessly even if i reinstall the game, also choosing some setting option like enable rollback also crash my game, am not sure if it was my phone or the game.
Phones tend to have a lot of trouble I've noticed. You could look up stuff to see if it is something specific with your phone type and if there is a work-a-round if you want but I recommend just doing the desktop download instead as it is the easiest fix.
I download the pc ver, figure out how to use it on my phone, yet it STILL crashing after 4 dialogue :/ im gonna buy a new phone.
Dude same the game crash when she say "this is just a dream, little human"
I've looked up and down, I'm missing the first scene in the gallery. How does one unlock this?
Chapter 1: it's in the Multitasking mission, you have to fail it to unlock the first scene in the gallery
Hello UncleArtie, I loved the game it sucks it has ended aside from the Extra fluffy Edition I wish that the story was still going on. Are you going to be working on any future stuff?
Thank you for playing and enjoying it. I have been working on my next project since March and post about its development on my patreon and my discord server. I have a lot of plans for catgirls in the future haha
Thats great!
This visual novel is honestly very very well done, I wish there was a LOT more content in the free version, as I don't know if the paid one is updated or not. On the Patreon,
I don't quite know if the Discord link is supposed to be invalid because you have to be a Patreon member to get inI figured it out, yes you have to be a patreon member which I did become! It's gonna be fun here. But about the VN, it's really really catching, when you play it, you can't stop for a LONG time, and you just get caught in anticipation for every single aspect of it, like for updates, and better story. I've only gotten one ending so far but it's super addicting!Thank you for reading it. That's really strange about the discord link. It's supposed to be just a public invite. I'll check it out and see what happened. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Hey, not a problem about the Discord, but it seems like the link broke because I think I had to link my Discord to my patreon, I just think I forgot to do that earlier so I had to do it now. That is what probably didn't let me in.
Ah Catgirl Maid. You were, and forever will be, the best Visual Novel to exist. I remember waiting for each update with anticipation. Eagerly awaiting to find out what would happen next. It was a beautiful time. I'll hold it in my heart forever
I'm glad you really enjoy it! It was a lot of fun to make.
This is one of the best visual novels I've played to date, and certainly the most captivating hentai VN. The writing throughout the game is fantastic -- the main character is fairly relatable, the banter feels realistic, and I didn't notice any typos in my time with it (an admittedly low bar, but I feel it's worth mentioning given the quality of other h-games out there). The worldbuilding involved is pretty interesting, and I was getting genuinely emotional as I neared the story's end. The pacing is well-done, knowing when things should be silly, serious, or sensual and how to flow between the three. I look forward to whatever comes next from the creator(s), even if it's not necessarily building off of this universe.
Oh, and the actual porn scenes are great too. A good mix of hot and adorable, which is my personal favorite.
Please tag the game for linux so that the itch.io app can download it on linux. The game works well when downloaded manually (I finished it).
is there a specific way to pass the market?
which order should I go in? meet, rice, or vegetables
The order of those three don't matter as you have to do all three segments to advance anyhow. Here's the walkthrough if you need it but don't stress out about it. You can still get good endings even if you "fail" the "challenge".
