House of Wonders: Kitty Kat Wedding is a cute game. You’ll be welcomed by Mr. Bones who owns a cat in love with his neighbor’s kitty. Now, those cats want to get married but since they are cats they don’t have any money! So the game invites you to help Mr. Bones and the cute cats to collect money for the wedding by playing several fun puzzles.
Beyond the story, the game could be categorized into the “seek & find” category. There are lots of games alike but this one is different from others since its particular dynamic: this game includes several types of puzzles besides the typical seek & find, and is organized in what is called “missions”. The “seek & find” missions basically consists in looking for hidden objects in messy scenes which are the different rooms in the House of Wonders. Each mission requires you to find a certain amount of items. There are some hints available for you to use if you get stuck at any time. Of course, these hints are limited and will cost you a few seconds each time. At the end of each set you will be able to use the money earned to buy gifts for the cats. In addition to seek & find missions, you will encounter one special puzzle within each mission set. There are five types of special puzzles:
- Home Theater Puzzle: you have to drag a face from the screen over to a matching face in the audience.
- Face to Face Puzzle: It’s a cards puzzle. Playing cards are arranged in a pyramid. You must match cards until all the cards in the pyramid have been removed.
- Remember Me Puzzle: cards are laid face down on a table. Click on a card to flip it, and then flip another card in the hope of making a match.
- Where’s Larry Puzzle: Larry has hidden. You must find and click on him in order to win this puzzle.
- Twins’ Room Puzzle: two rooms look very similar, but have a handful of slight differences. You must click on the differences you find among the 2 rooms.
