• Illustration — NES version screenshot The player controls Felix the Cat as he sets out to defeat the evil mad Professor, who has kidnapped Felix's girlfriend Kitty. The Game Boy version plays the same as the NES version, aside from featuring fewer levels and being in monochrome. Felix the Cat has simple game mechanics. The A button is used to jump (press repeatedly to fly or swim), and the B button is used to attack. The type of attack varies depending on the magic level. When Felix falls into the bottomless pit (past the bottom of the level), runs out of time, or loses all his health, he loses a life. Scattered items replenish health and magic. Enemies include moles, tree trunks, cannons, birds, fish, and eight boss monsters. Enemies generally follow a regular pace back and forth, and Felix can shoot them. If Felix takes a hit, his magic power goes down one level. If Felix is at the lowest magic power and gets hit, he loses a life. There are nine worlds.

Felix the Cat was released in North America and Europe. A Famicom version was planned for Japan but never released. Game Champ reported a planned Japanese release for December 1992. On March 28, 2024, Konami released a compilation of the NES and Game Boy versions of the game for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4. A Windows version was also rated by the ESRB but never released. The compilation emulates the games through Limited Run Games' Carbon Engine, and features the ability to save and rewind gameplay at any time.
