The Consumption

There’s not a whole lot of strategy in the Sushi Cat series — you’re basically just playing Plinko with a gluttonous feline — but what these games do, they do well. Sushi Cat 2 delivers exactly what you’d hope from a sequel, preserving the oddly hypnotic core (I could watch that cat ooze around the board for hours, for some reason) and adding in the requisite jangles, like bonus stages where your cat gorges on absurd amounts of rice, and a clever assortment of “super” sushis. Add in unlockable costumes (the diver is probably my favourite) and cutscenes that rival the original in their ridiculousness and you’ve got a solid half-hour of mindless fun. If the cuteness doesn’t drive you crazy, that is.
