Catburglar

About Catburglar

Catburglar is a stealth-focused puzzle platformer where you play as Cynth, a skilled cat burglar navigating highrise apartments while trying to reach each objective without being caught. The game combines exploration, careful movement and problem-solving as you work around guards and security cameras.

Getting through each area requires more than simply walking toward the goal. You can crouch, roll through tight spaces, interact with the environment and use coins to create distractions. Computers, lamps, doors and hiding opportunities all become useful parts of your approach as you search for a safe route through the building.

How to Play & Stealth Strategy

Move carefully through the apartments and pay attention to the surrounding security. Guards and cameras can make a direct route risky, so use the environment and Cynth's abilities to find safer ways forward.

• Crouch when you need to move more carefully.


• Roll under stairs and enter vents to navigate restricted spaces.


• Interact with doors, computers, lamps and hiding locations.

Master the Art of Stealth

Catburglar rewards careful observation rather than rushing through each area. Before moving into a new section, consider where the security threats are positioned and look for alternative routes that let Cynth continue without attracting attention.

Use the Environment

The apartments contain several interactive elements that can help you progress. Doors, computers, lamps and hiding locations can all play a role in navigating the building. Learning when to interact with these objects can make difficult sections easier to approach.

Distract and Move

Cynth can aim and throw a coin to create a distraction. Use this ability thoughtfully when you need to redirect attention and create an opportunity to move through a dangerous area.
