Cat in Temple

On a quiet night, a lone cat wanders into an old temple and suddenly finds itself unable to leave. The same night repeats over and over, trapping the cat in an endless loop. Within the temple grounds, time twists unnaturally, and strange yokai and eerie anomalies appear and vanish like shadows. The cat must explore the ever-changing paths of the temple, searching for an exit as it continues to wander through the distorted night. Each corridor seems to breathe, walls shift on their own, and faint lantern light casts uncertain shapes that may point the way or mislead. The temple harbors memories of ancient rites, secrets, and a fate bound to the traveler who cannot escape.

This is an exploration game built around looping through the same map while searching for anomalies that reveal the path forward. On the first loop, the correct path will always appear, giving a clear starting sense of direction. From the second loop onward, you will encounter either an anomaly path or the correct path in each fork. If an anomaly is present, you must turn back and try a different route. If the correct path appears, you can proceed forward and continue the loop. The ultimate goal is simple in concept but demanding in practice: correctly choose the right path 10 times in a row to clear the game. If you mistime a turn, the counter resets to zero and the challenge begins again.

The atmosphere blends quiet wonder with unsettling tension. The temple is hushed, yet every sound feels deliberate—a distant chime, a soft footstep that could be your own, or a whisper of wind through hollow arches. Eldritch yokai drift into view and dissolve, while time itself shivers, bending night into unfamiliar angles. You navigate a maze that reconfigures as you progress, where doors and corridors rearrange as if the building remembers every choice you make. The cat moves with calm curiosity, pausing to sniff corners and listen for faint hints of the true route. Success hinges not only on speed but on reading subtle cues that emerge after each loop, building quiet confidence as you chase the exit through distortions of night.

Gameplay at a glance

• Loop through the same map while searching for anomalies that indicate the correct path.
• First loop guarantees the correct path; later loops reveal either an anomaly or the correct path.
• Encountering an anomaly means you must backtrack; finding the correct path lets you move forward.
• Clear the game by correctly choosing the right path 10 times in a row. A mistake resets progress and restarts the challenge.
