    MouseBot is a straightforward and challenging runner that doesn’t push the envelope, but achieves what it sets out to do. There’s also plenty of content for the asking price, which makes this a great pick for someone looking for a lighthearted, low-commitment experience, or for completionists looking to test their skills. As for me, after a few hours in the CatLab, I probably won’t be revisiting anytime soon.

    Despite the lack of originality it’s hard not to give MouseBot: Escape From CatLab a passing recommendation though – as what it aims to do, it does well. The low price point helps immeasurably too, and you definitely won’t feel short changed if you’re looking for a solidly assembled endless runner on your Switch. Just don’t expect to remember it for very long after you’ve completed it.

Even if they’re relatively fun and playable appropriateness on a dedicated gaming platform and whether they can properly strip out free-to-play annoyances when you’re a paying customer ranking high on the list of common issues. MouseBot is roughly riding the middle in this case, having enough cuteness and charm to go with its simple but somewhat satisfying puzzle action play, but then falling down a bit with grinding in-game currency in runs for unlocks, clearly reminding you this was originally free on phones and tablets. The result isn’t necessarily bad, but honestly given the large items and characters on the screen and relatively light action of play I can’t see a compelling reason to purchase this on the Switch when you could grab it for free in the mobile space.
