About

In one of the earliest licensed entertainment videogames of Jim Davis' lazy cat cartoon character, you play Garfield in his attempt to rescue Arlene from the cat pound. The primary gameplay involves object manipulation, gaining objects either by picking them up or receiving them from other characters (usually in exchange for other objects).

Most characters from the cartoons play a part in the game. Odie the dog follows you around - swipe him for points. Garfield's cousin Nermal can help you out. They can also carry objects for Garfield's use.

Garfield needs regular food and rest; without these, he falls asleep and it is Game Over. Going to the butcher is one of the main ways to get some food. Many foes are also encountered while wandering around and touching them will make Garfield fall asleep faster.
