Shooting Stars! - This is a goofy shoot-em-up in which you ride a hoverboard and fire lasers at various celebrities and use memes for powerups; I played (and loved) the Android version of this and totally recommend it.
Nyan Cat: Lost In Space - A delightful 2D platformer runner game featuring a decade-old meme. I suspect most people would find it annoying, as it’s repetitive as hell. I rather enjoyed it.
Fort Meow - Build a furniture fort to repel flying cats so you can read in piece. It’s somewhere between a puzzle game and a pseudo-tower defense game, as you try to arrange piles of chairs and mattresses in the right order so that the cats get deflected, rather than landing in your lap.
The Purring Quest - Short, purrfectly respectable platformer with a story that's trying to be Up, except you play the broken-hearted old man’s cat. It’s fine, nothing special.
MouseCraft - A Lemmings-like puzzle game in which Dr. Schrodinger (the alien cat) must get mice to cheese by rearranging blocks. Credit for a solid tutorial, but it didn’t win me for long.
Pix the Cat - An arcade-style action/puzzle game that plays like a combination of Pac-Man and Snakes. You need to collect eggs, which become ducklings, which you much then deposit into nests, without running into ghosts or your tail. (I also had to manually copy DLL files from other games to get it to run. Oy, Windows.)
Beyond Eyes - An “artistic” exploration game in which a blind girl goes searching for her lost cat. It's absolutely beautiful—the watercolor world draws itself as you get close enough to hear or feel it, and reacts to the girl's fears with environmental effects. That said, the entire game is just slowly walking around trying to figure out where to go, and the scenery gets awfully repetitive very quickly. I'd love to see the “drawing the map on whitespace” graphical effect in a game that's more of a game.
Hot Tin Roof: The Cat That Wore A Fedora - An action/Puzzle/detective story starring a “Blockian” detective and a sarcastic cat. Very “satirical noir.” Cute concept, clearly a lot of work went into it, but it didn't interest me.
Samudai - A co-op 2D arena fighter played as cat-samurai. Meh?
Cat on a Diet was also in this bundle, but it would not run and I wasn’t interested enough to fight with it.
Overall: There’s a lot of “there’s nothing super-special here, but they’re perfectly fine examples of their genres that happen to revolve around cats.”
