A crime caper of epic proportion

Grand Theft Kitty

You do not have to be a RockStar.

Six cats. Six tricycles. One promenade full of people who were only popping out for Dreamies.

Pick your getaway driver

Ride into anyone holding a packet. Swerve round everything else. Slide a finger up and down, or use the arrow keys.

The job

The pedestrians of the promenade have Dreamies. The gang would like them. Ride into anybody holding a packet and it is yours. Ten Dreamies a packet, fifty for a golden one.

Keep stealing without a crash and your crime spree multiplies the take, up to five times. Hit a bollard, a bin, a deckchair, a constable or a seagull and the spree is over. Run out of lives and you are collared.

The longer you last, the hotter it gets: more constables, more seagulls, faster music. A pot of catnip gives you the zoomies, and for a few seconds nothing can stop you.

The gang

Everything you steal goes in the bank, on this device, and the bank is what recruits the rest of the gang.

    The tune is a new one, written for the chase. The game is drawn in code, in the ink-and-splatter look of our books. Dreamies is a trade mark of its owner, who has nothing to do with this game and has not endorsed it; nor has anybody connected with any other game whose name this one resembles. No pedestrians, constables or seagulls were harmed. The cats are real. They were not consulted.
