This Game Is NOT Chill!

Don’t be fooled by the cuteness of this adorable cat game. It’s much more intense than it looks.

Don’t get too comfortable… or you might lose track of time and face a serious challenge.

Please read “How to Play” before starting! It will make your life a lot easier.

The game starts with a 60-second timer.

Quickly form words to earn combo points and get the Electric Eel item. It freezes the chasing dog for 3 seconds.

You’ll also need to create long words to get bonus points and earn the Fish item, which adds more time.

⚠️ Don’t forget to tap and use the DogCage item!

Pro Tip: At the start of the game, try to form long words to collect Fish and boost your time. If you have less than 30 seconds left, the evil poodle will come out and start chasing you.
