Five nights with Cats

You've taken a job that seemed too simple: watching over a dimly lit building from a security office. But the moment the clock strikes midnight, the real residents emerge—a gang of cats with a knack for causing chaos. Your task is to survive each shift by keeping a close eye on the camera feeds and reacting swiftly when whiskered troublemakers slink toward your room. With only a limited supply of power, every decision matters: do you watch the hallway, seal a door, or risk a blind spot? As the nights roll on, the felines grow bolder and their tricks more elaborate. What begins as a playful nudge at a wire soon becomes a full-blown assault on your surveillance setup. The pressure mounts with each passing hour, testing your ability to stay calm and think ahead. Can you outsmart a crew of four-legged saboteurs and make it through the week without a complete system meltdown?

What is Five nights with Cats

A mundane security gig turns into a whisker-tingling ordeal when you discover your real coworkers are cats with a mission. Manage your energy wisely and keep those fuzzy paws off your gear.

How to Play

Use your mouse or keyboard to toggle between camera views and activate the office doors. Monitor the cats' movements and close the doors when they get too close to your room, but always keep an eye on your remaining power.

Tips for Playing

Prioritize door usage over constant camera switching to stretch your power supply.
Listen for audio cues—cats often announce their presence before appearing on camera.
Don't keep cameras up longer than necessary; every second drains your battery.
Check the blind spots in your office periodically to avoid surprise ambushes.
Plan your power spend for the later hours, as the night gets trickier toward dawn.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I run out of power?

Running out of power disables everything, leaving you helpless and unable to shut the doors. That usually leads to a quick visit from the cats and a game over.

How many nights are there in total?

There are five nights to survive, each progressively harder with more active and clever cats.

Can I play at my own pace?

The game is real-time, and you must manage your actions within each night's timeframe, so there's no pause—except when you need to plan a door slam.

Is there a way to identify which cat is about to attack?

Observing behavior patterns is key: some cats linger in certain spots, while others follow a more direct path. Learn their quirks to predict their next move.

What's the best strategy for the final night?

By night five, mix your routine: check cameras quickly, close doors early, and never assume a lull means safety; the cats are just waiting for you to drop your guard.

Are there any hidden features or Easter eggs?

Kepp an eye out for occasional cat behaviors that don't match the usual patterns—they might hint at secret events or special endings.
