What players say

Fort Meow is a very cute game that's basically the inverse of Angry Birds. Each level you build an increasingly complicated fort out of spare furniture to prevent leaping cats from interrupting your study time. Short, fun story with a nice amount of depth. The stakes are low, so it comes across as a much more pleasant endeavor than many tower defense games. Nice one to share with friends.

It's a cute game. You defend yourself against cats that want to sit in your lap. It's sort of a build a fortress defend game.
