About Hidden Cats in Paris
Hidden Cats in Paris invites players to search a beautifully illustrated, monochromatic Paris scene for concealed feline friends. The game offers a relaxing visual experience that transforms into full‑color art once all cats are discovered. Two play modes provide varying challenges: Normal mode with 100 fixed‑position cats and limited hints, and Advanced mode with 150 semi‑random cats, special cats, and additional hidden city people. Bonus levels add new locations and kitten counts, while accessibility options such as Dark Mode and Color Blindness support broaden playability.
01 / THE GUIDE
Normal Mode
In Normal mode players locate 100 cats placed in fixed positions across the Paris illustration. The mode supplies three hints to assist in finding the hidden felines.
The fixed layout means each playthrough presents the same cat locations, allowing players to memorize spots or use hints strategically to complete the scene.
- Observe the background details; cats often blend with similar shapes.
- Use hints sparingly to preserve them for tougher sections.
02 / THE GUIDE
Advanced Mode
Advanced mode expands the hunt to 150 cats whose positions vary semi‑randomly, adding replay variety. Eight special cats appear, unlocking Bonus Levels and granting additional hints.
Sixteen city people are also hidden; finding them yields extra hints, increasing the tools available for locating the remaining cats.
- Track which special cats you have found to know which Bonus Levels are unlocked.
- Prioritize locating city people early for extra hint resources.

Bonus Levels
Unlockable Bonus Levels feature distinct Parisian settings such as Boulangerie, Catacombs, and Louvre, each with a set number of kittens to find. These levels vary in size and kitten count.
The kitten totals range from 50 in smaller locations to 100 in larger venues, providing additional hidden‑object challenges beyond the main scene.
- Compare the layout of each Bonus Level to the main scene to anticipate where kittens may hide.
- Each Bonus Level offers one use of a hint to help with the search.
