This is a game that is so simple that it becomes absolutely lovable and even addictive. In Cannon Cat, players take control of a cat, aptly dressed, who loves shooting itself out of cannons. The objective of the game is simple: Launch your kitty from one cannon to another to make your way to a portal at the end of each playing map. While you’re at it, save some skyfish by knocking straight into them to free them from their bubbly prisons.

However, this leads to one major but irrelevant question: What is a cat doing trying to save fish instead of eating them?

Jokes aside, Cannon Cat has the makings of a really great game targeted at very young children. For starters, the control system is extremely easy to handle. The one-tap control system makes it very simplistic which means just about anyone can grasp the concept of the game fairly quickly.

The cutesy graphics will also appeal to the young ones. In a cartoonish landscape with hints and traces of a fantasy world, children will love the backdrop that compliments the game.

A nice addition to Cannon Cat would be the introduction of power ups. Though the game can be completed without them, said power ups make life a lot easier and also opens up new possibilities at having a fun time.

For a free app, I would say that Cannon Cat is something that is recommended for download. While the game does get stale after an extended amount of time, it will still keep the little ones busy and entertained.
