Get ready for fast paced submarine action, defending the kittens from disruptive mechanical sea creatures.


THE MILK MUST FLOW!

Jaz Rignall

4/5 JAZ RIGNALL - USGAMER.NET - "Taking its inspiration from 80's and 90's shooters, Aqua Kitty DX is simple, frenetic and fun. What it sets out to do, it does very well, and the end result is charming, challenging, and purrfectly addictive."
