A wonderful little game. A great blend of sentimentality, humor, wistfulness and storytelling. Managing to get basement cat into the mix was an added bonus.

I...I...The timing of it all...My best friend, Kimmy, she died yesterday. I have been an emotional wreck because of it...
This made me realize something. She's safe now. She's in a better place. She's away from all the pain and sorrows she had while she was here.
Thank you Jonas. Thank you for making this. Thank you for telling your stories. Our old school, where I graduated with her, thanks you. Her friends and family , myself included, thank you.
And I'm sure, somewhere, Kimmy is thanking you too.

Wonderful. Simply wonderful. My mind boggles at the amount of work that went into this, giving *every single* book a title of some sort, all the other wonderful details. I do believe that Bob the Spider is the ONLY arachnid I would welcome into my home! Beautiful job. 5/5

I recently lost a cat of 18 years. It was very sudden but we think it was peaceful. While playing this game the grief suddenly hit me, not just for her but for all the cats I've known who no longer purr. Thanks for making me remember them and their stories again, and thank you for this game. It was very sweet and I'll relish reading the books that Screech and his human enjoy. It's a very nice touch.

5/5

Such a short story, but it doesn't need to be longer. It's absolutely beautiful. I am very trained in the art of manly tears.

How pure and beautiful this is... It's surprising sometimes how such a quick, simply, and even childish story could reflect the entirety of our lives with such pathos in mere minutes... Quick, simple, somber. Nothing more.

I have never fallen in love with a character as fast as I did with Screech. It's a very touching story. Even if it is a bit short, I think you did a wonderful job. And yes, I cried like a baby at the end. 5/5 great job.

This has to be one of the most sentimental games to ever have been posted on Kong. In the short time I played, I gained, helpped, and lost a friend. That part about Fishie at the end just wasnt fair though..

I really need a freakin hug right about now. =( Very touching little flash. I'll have to cuddle the heck out of my cat before this feeling goes away.

I love this game. My cat of 17 years has recently passed away and it's good to be able to remember the good times with him. I'll always miss you Garth!!!

Beautiful. Sweet and funny and poignant, and all together in such a way they are all balanced. Interactive fiction indeed. Good book noise happened at the end.

this actually managed to bring a tear to my eye, as i thought of my own aging cat and how much i miss her when i am at college. this game is an amazing piece of artwork, and should be encouraged.

I love going through bookcases, you can find the most interesting things... And particularly mysterious things as well. In this case, they were blue and green.

i love the Land of Dream games, and the way they all connect. They are so well crafted, and the music is just beautiful. Thank you for making this game, and all the other ones.

That was...Intense. I mean seriously...You don't get hand-drawn games these days! No but seriously, I might not have cried like the rest of these blubbering humans but it was pretty unique, really.

I have been a gamer my entire life. When thinking of the games that have been my favorites over the years, I tend to think of Zelda, Mario, Metroid, Castlevania, etc. Story-based adventure games have always been particular favorites, for which I've always credited the old-school Sierra and LucasArts adventures such as King's Quest and Monkey Island. But none of those old games, not even my all-time favorite classic Gabriel Knight, has ever moved me the way these silly little flash games have. I actually cried at the end of this, and I'm not the least bit ashamed. I'm just rather struck by the somewhat ironic fact that I can be more deeply affected by a short, free online game than I've ever been by any of the vast-reaching commercial endeavors which have been central to my life as a gamer for decades. It just goes to show that art created solely out of love has infinitely higher potential than anything created with the intention of making money. Keep up the amazing work, Mr. Kyratzes!

An amazingly evocative game, even more so than any of JonasKyratzes's others here... which is saying a heck of a lot! Just play it, there is no way to describe the story or the atmosphere, it is just beautiful, feeling and ... wow - what can you say after that, just ... wow. Thank you (^_^)

This is one of the few games that should go in a category of its own, Art. Jonas has made games with an amazing ability to touch my heart, and I cried after this game. I think it was the music that did it. It deserves a 5/5 from everyone.

Well this was unexpected, the music goes wonderfully with it. It's put me in a very peaceful and contemplative mood. Story telling at its finest 5/5. My eyes may also be a little damp.

This box is bigger on the inside. It contains a TARDIS, which in turn contains a box just like this with another TARDIS inside. LOL!

A better tale of a much loved cat I have never heard. Beautifully reminded me of the furry ones I miss :) It's not often a big ugly hulk like me sniffles away but this little tale made me tear up like Gwyneth.
