Video Review:

Really Challenging, but still tons of fun.

Loaded with replay value.

Soooo many items to unlock.

Will test you but not really frustrate you. To much anyways.

It's cute and adorable, but still kind of sadistic..

Levels Galore, and they always feel fresh and new.

Smooth and Spot on Controls. Game ran flawlessly. 

FUN Achievements.

Would have loved some sort of COOP or Multiplayer mode to enjoy with friends and family.

May be to difficult for some, but they really make it where if you try hard enough you will find a way to make it through. Just passing level alone opens next one. You also get a pass as well if struggling to bad. So if you give a good effort you will get pass, and then come back later and grab the things you missed on it. 

OVERALL Impression:

Mousebot is one of the best Indie games I've played so far in 2021. I love the difficulty, and think a lot of other people will as well. It really gives off the "Portal" vibes, and I think is Vector Unit's finest release to date. I loved "Beach Buggy Racing" but Mousebot just takes it to another level as far as fun and Development in my opinion. Every level feels fresh and fun, and it's just loaded with items to unlock , and replay value. Mousebot is a must own for fans of games that challenge their skills as well as for just fans of Kitty Cat cuteness.... That;s why I give Mousebot Escape from Catlab a 9 chunks of cheese out of 10.
