Meaning Of Existence In David Zag's Psychocat
Imagine for a minute that you are walking into a tunnel. The entire tunnel is comprised of rainbows, you can barely see. You feel as though you must walk down it, its imperative that you do, no matter what it takes. You know it might hurt you as you hear the sounds coming from ahead, you know it might even drive you mad, yet you feel you must do it. You're scared, but you know the meaning of you existence is at the end of the tunnel. Do you turn back, or do you run in head on?

The central premise for Psychocat relies on a cat not dissimilar from Alice in Wonderland’s Cheshire Cat named Zag who is on a quest to learn the meaning of his existence. It advertises itself as, “the most evil game you will ever play” and when the developers said that they weren’t lying.

I hear you cry, absolutely, unlike Temple Run, Flappy Bird, or other endless races, it has a goal; something worth achieving other than wasting your time, and no micropayments. So double bonus.

These things keep it entertaining allowing it value regardless of its simple plot and tedious gameplay. It’s a great value for the 99 cents it costs, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cheap, fun game to play for a few minutes or a few hours at a time.
