Here at LadiesGamers, we like our hidden objects games, and it’s always a bonus when we are looking for cute animals. In Secret Paws – Cozy Offices we’re looking for cats, although they are slightly more cuboid than normal, all the better to hide in the busy offices.

Everywhere You Look Are Cats!

The first office, with 55 cats to find. The list of controls are shown on the left side. Published on LadiesGamers — Where to begin?

There are 12 office spaces to rummage round in Secret Paws – Cozy Offices, with a varying number of hidden cats. Each level can be entered via the main menu, or you can use the doors in the office to enter the next space. The cubic dioramas can be rotated, and need to be rotated, to see each cupboard, drawer, chair or desk from the different angle. It’s amazing how from one angle you can’t see a cat, but from the next it’s very obvious.

Like many hidden objects games, starting with a high number seems impossible – how can they fit them all into that space! But fairly quickly tens of cats can be found, some of the cuboid cats might be lying in plain sight, or some are sneakily hiding in shoes, coffee cups or even behind pictures. The black cats on black backgrounds are particularly difficult to spot!

Secret Paws – Cozy Offices does have a hint function, which will highlight a hiding cat in red. You might still need to rotate the diorama to see the one the highlighted. There’s a cooldown period before you can use the hint again.

One addition which would be useful is a completed status for each office diorama on the front page.

Secret Paws – Cozy Offices Gameplay

The controls are shown on screen at the beginning of each level. Secret Paws – Cozy Offices works well in docked and handheld mode, with the added benefit of being able to use the touchscreen to select the cats.

Secret Paws – Cozy Offices autosaves, and even when I accidentally clicked on the office door and entered another room, I didn’t lose any of my found cats.

There are 12 levels, with about 1 to 1.5 hours of gameplay in total.
