a new bontegame: christmas cat and a new mobile app

Hohoho, it's a fine tradition here at bontegames that I make a Christmas themed game every year so... ring those Christmas bells because... here's my new game Christmas cat! The Bonte cat jumps on top of the Christmas tree and sends the 20 red balls all around the house. Can you find all 20 balls by solving the puzzles?


And there's more bontegames news: I'm also launching a new mobile app today: 'Where is cat?'. The app is a collection of the Bonte cat adventures and contains for the moment my games 'Where is cat?' and 'Christmas cat' in HD graphics and excellent audio quality. More adventures of the Bonte cat will be added in future updates of the app. The app is not free but it is absolutely adfree and by buying the 'Where is cat?' app for your iPhone/iPad or Android device you're supporting future bontegames! Get it now by clicking your favourite app store below:




So enjoy my new games, spread the word and merry Christmas and happy puzzling!

where is cat? follow-up

Remember my last game where is cat? that I created together with my kids for the #oujevipo4kids contest? Well here's a little update: the game was selected as a contest finalist, which means it will now be touring France (and maybe other countries in Europe) together with the nine other finalists on custom made arcade machines!
The tour kicked off last week at the KulturMix festival in Dijon, where the jury price of the contest was awarded to the game Loup (congratulations 01101101!).
You can see the arcade machines for the different games here and read about the arcade machine designs over here. Below is a picture of the amazing mouse hole shaped arcade machine that the organisation has built for where is cat? but, where is the game?
