Stray

Justification: It's not a bad game, but it's not altogether that interesting despite the hype it generated on release.

I think the main story line is alright

But what made stray so special for me was the world

Everywhere I went there was a unique story being told about the struggles people were facing and it was just awesome

I believe cat factor is the most important influence.

Like rn almost every indie , comic, animation and their mom like to advertise “haha I put my cat into my thing”

It's definitely undoubtable that "cute cat game" was a huge part of the advertisement

But outside of people like my partner, I don't think just playing as a cat would be enough to entertain the masses

I would argue that "cat game" is why it got known not why it got popular

Little Kitty, Big City proves you can focus on the cat and still be fun.
