STP: The barebones story in Mittens does not bode well for the game. You play as a male cat trying to win the affections of a female cat who’s more interested in having you do things for her than in being your lady-friend. So you spend the game risking life and limb to bring her treasures like milk, balloons, and mice. Seems like a raw deal. Thankfully, the gameplay is more fun than the story.
IGN:Though many of Mittens’ levels feature a neat variety of traps and mechanisms, on the mandatory normal difficulty most unfold at a snail’s pace and are simply too easy. Dying is uncommon, and some levels are so simple you might complete them entirely by accident. Mittens shines brightest when it throws you into a dangerous, dynamic stage and forces you to claw your way to the end, which disappointingly is too rare until you unlock the tough levels.

Mittens is a pretty steady offering. The bulk of the game is mostly easy levels for younger kids, while there are some sneakily difficult levels here and there that will surprise you with how tough they can be.
