Catlateral Damage is a first-person video game in which the player plays as a cat. The goal of the game is to knock as many of the player character's owner's belongings onto the floor as possible.[1] There are game modes in which the player can race against the clock and get a certain number of items onto the floor as fast as they can, score as many points as possible in two minutes, or play freely with no clock and no points.
