Fat Cat Slots is a wonky looking cartoon cat game that we think is kind of creepy but acknowledge many people will enjoy. It has a polarizing look, but so do most things that end up pretty popular. We didn’t thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent with it, mostly wishing that they’d changed the art style a bit to something we’d usually enjoy. That’s a subjective issue of taste, however, so we are going to ignore that and focus on what’s here.
Through that lens, Fat Cat Slots is a well crafted 5 reel slot that’s high on production values and has a lot of heart. Whether you like cats or not, you will likely enjoy Fat Cat Slots. It’s an easy recommendation on all fronts.
Premise of Fat Cat Slots
The premise of Fat Cat Slots is cartoon cats. Only one of them is fat, the rest being his cohorts. The reference here is to being rich, and the pun in the titular character is both appreciated and questionable. There aren’t many games like this, and we know people love punny premises like these, so we will give them the benefit of the doubt and say it was well chosen.
Presentation in Fat Cat Slots
Graphics in Fat Cat Slots are hand drawn and for the most part fine. Everything is crisp, clear, colorful, and compelling to look at, which makes your time spent playing all the easier because of how easy they are on the eyes. We personally don’t like some of the ways the cats look, but again, that comes down to personal taste. We can’t think of any reason to fault them, and therefor won’t.
Even the suits of cards show design flare, which we appreciate. Most slots copy and paste crap from elsewhere and it gets real old, real quick. Not Fat Cat Slots. They tried hard and it shows across every pixel of the game.
Gameplay Mechanics in Fat Cat Slots
Gameplay in Fat Cat Slots is fine. At 5 reels and 20 pay lines, it does not break the mold there, chosing instead to keep things classy in ways we can respect.
Betting here ranges from a penny to $5, making this an accessible slot that anyone can jump into in hopes of winning a lot of money without worrying about necessarily breaking the bank in the process. Max bets cap out at $100, which tends to be how we rolled when we played it a bunch for our review. It would be nice to bet higher, but this also makes for longer play sessions when we don’t, and limits our losses.
