Gameplay
Kitten Kaboodle is a top-down action game where players control two kittens who aim to find hidden keys in levels occupied by enemies and obstacles.[4] The player can jump over enemies and kick blocks in their direction to defeat them, which may occasionally yield a key, while collecting cash to purchase power-ups. Three blocks with symbols such as fire, dynamite, a crown and a stopwatch can be connected to activate effects such as burning enemies within a chosen radius, blowing up enemies, making the player character invincible and stopping time. Between levels, a shop, slot machine or Whac-A-Mole mini game will appear for players to spend coins and/or score extra points.[5] A boss stage occurs every 5 levels, where both the boss and the player aim to defeat each other by throwing bombs.[6]
