Sushi Cat is one of the cutest Flash games I’ve ever run across. You play a blue cat with a major talent for eating and, fortunately for you, every level is filled with delicious sushi! The controls are simple: you aim and drop from the top of the screen using the mouse, trying to hit as much sushi as you can on the way down. Eat enough sushi, and you can go on to the next level.

Your score depends on how much sushi you eat, and which bucket the cat lands in when it finally reaches the bottom of the screen. The more the cat eats, the more it grows, and a fatter cat bounces differently off of the various obstacles in each level. Don’t worry too much, though, because your cat regains its normal size before each drop.

To make clearing levels easier, you can get a little help in the form of special sushi pieces. The Maneki Neko (the lucky cat!) in the first few levels gives you bonus multipliers or extra lives, while the Tornado Roll in the middle levels sucks up nearby sushi for you. The last few stages have Dragon Cannons, which let you fire your cat in a direction of your choice.

Sushi Cat isn’t a hard game, by any means, but it’s fun to replay for high scores once you get good. And besides, it’s totally adorable!
