- The only thing that changes is how your thieving cat gets past it.
- Circumventing the brick barrier that surrounds a fancy art museum is the first of several challenges that get thrown your way as Netflix's interactive cartoon Cat Burglar unfolds.
- The premise is simple: A sly feline is trying to steal a priceless, unseen work of art from a museum, but a lovable-yet-slow-witted guard dog is on duty.
- The success or failure of the heist is in the hands of the viewer, based entirely on your performance in a series of timed challenges.
- In your typical video game — and Cat Burglar is definitely a kind of video game, make no mistake — challenge comes from thematically and narratively appropriate gameplay.
