Your cat got loose in the art museum and is hiding inside famous paintings!
How do I play? Find and click the hidden cat in a series of paintings. The quicker you find the cat, the higher you score. Each painting will slowly transition from low to high color depth, making the image clearer and more detailed.
What is color depth? The number of distinct colors that can be displayed on a screen. An image with 1-bit color depth can display two colors, while an image with 24-bit color depth can display 16,777,216 colors.
How many levels are there? There are 10 levels in total. The first level is always the same. The other levels have 3 possible placements for the cat.
What’s a good high score?
- 0-500: Sleeping kitten
- 500-1000: Lounging house cat
- 1000-1500: Ambling ocelot
- 1500-2000: Jogging jaguar
- 2000+: Sprinting lion

Including that Breughel at the end was just cruel--it took me several minutes and that was after I pulled up an image of the original and switched back and forth between the two. That thing is so busy--to say nothing of the actual cat in the lower left!
Overall fun though. I will say that in maybe half of them the cat's black eyes were the first thing to appear as the color depth increased, making them very easy to find.
Thanks for playing and for the feedback! We updated the eyes to make them less obvious :)
