Cyrus stays calm in a checkout line, in a crowd, in a stranger’s arms. His game is the same: a quiet match-3 on a sunny beach, made for grown-ups who like an unhurried puzzle. Swap tiles to collect shells, hearts, starfish and goldfish. There is no clock, no energy meter and no lives wall, so you can play one level or ten.

Sunrise Stroll, Tidepool Discoveries, Boardwalk Festival and Sunset Reunion. Tide pools, string lights and wet sand change how the board behaves, gently.

Fill the heart meter and you unlock a Warm Moment: a real photo and a little story from Cyrus’s life. There are five to collect, kept in a Memory Book you can open any time. Every one is earned by playing. None are for sale.


Dress Cyrus in his bow tie, shades, beach hat or Hawaiian shirt, earned with shells you collect as you play. After your third finished level his little brother Dandy joins you. Tap either of them and he answers back.






Cyrus is a real black-and-white Persian from Newport Beach, California. Strangers can hold him, crowds calm him instead of spooking him, and his usual way through a crowd is on Sassan’s shoulders. He also does tricks, hands out kisses wherever he goes and rides baby swings. Cyrus and Sassan are a Pet Partners-registered therapy animal team, and Cyrus is the head ambassador of Cyrusmeowgreat, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to bring joy and comfort to children and families who need it most.
Cyrusmeowgreat is a nonprofit. If you would like to make a donation, there is a Donate button inside the game, and you can also give at cyrusmeowgreat.org/donate. Donations are optional, tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law, go to the nonprofit’s charitable work rather than to the game, and never change the game.
Yes, on both stores. Everything in the game is earned by playing.

It is suitable for everyone, but it is written for adults and is not listed in children’s categories. There is no account, no sign-in and no chat.
