Save the Shivering Kittens!
I love technology. Especially everything Apple.
I also love cats. Especially kittens.
And I hate the cold.
So when my buddies at Giant Crayon Games told me their latest release is an iPhone game centered around saving shivering kittens from blocks of ice, there was no holding me back.
To be honest, I’m not much of a video game gal. This stems from a combination of Atari-deprivation as a kid, a mother who thought video arcades were for hoodlums, and an overall lack of hand-eye coordination. (The latter of which I can’t help but believe may be a result of the former.)
All the same, I do love me my iPhone games and find this feline-flavored Tetris to be thouroughly entertaining. And I’m a complete sucker for the catchy music and kitty meow-meow sound effects (for those who don’t share the same affection, the sound effects are optional). As the Shivering Kittens site describes:
In this quirky new puzzle game, you free adorable kittens from their icy confinement by arranging falling blocks. The more ice blocks you set, the more kittens you save!
With each kitten you rescue, the satisfying ice crunch and plaintive meows reward you for your efforts. For those brave souls who want to up the ante, Shivering Kittens comes in 10 increasingly challenging levels.
So far, I’m still at level one. But a girl’s gotta start somewhere, right?
Screenshots and more details are available at shiveringkittens.com. There’s also a video preview of the game (below).

I’ve been in a couple of commercials for Giant Crayon and know the folks over there pretty well.
That said, I do think it’s a fun game, purchased my own copy and this was not a sponsored post!

Inside the Bloggers Studio: Chris Blake
Chris Blake is an example of why I love sites like Twitter. I’m not sure how our tweets crossed paths, but I am glad they did. Chris is a talented musician. I love his music, but music reviews are not what I do best. Instead, to give you an idea of why I <3 Chris, I’m “borrowing” from another TV institution. Today’s installment of Inside the Bloggers Studio will be prefaced by my own “Top 10 List”. [click on the star image to read more]
Hi Faryl
I was totally opposite of you. I have been playing video games for ever and still play them today with my kids (although my son always beats me). The WII is a lot of fun for the family.
Anyway, not so sure about saving shivering kitties, but I love my iPhone and they have lots of easy games to keep you busy. Thanks for sharing your latest experience.

Hello,
See i am the opposite of you, i love online games. Im not a big gamer on xbox etc, i have a 360 but not a massive gamer on them. I love the simplicity of flash games and how easy it is to find one you like.
