Evaluation

The Spy Who Shrunk Me launched out of Early Access on June 14, 2019, with the developer explicitly declaring it "content complete" at that point. The original studio, Catland, subsequently wound down operations. In a detailed retrospective post on December 18, 2023, the game's creator Tomi Toikka confirmed that Catland is "long dead" and that he has been preserving the game as an individual. In that same post, he answered directly: there will be no sequel, prequel, or any follow-up content, and he stated he is "way too busy" with his new company to update or bugfix the game further. Both DLC items listed — the VR edition (released April 9, 2019) and the original soundtrack (released December 18, 2023) — have shipped. On May 8, 2026, Toikka announced he had "resurrected" Catland as a new venture to develop new games, and confirmed that former Catland titles — including this one — will remain available on Steam. This announcement does not indicate any new content for The Spy Who Shrunk Me; it is focused entirely on new titles. The game is a finished, self-contained product with no further content planned.

About this game

OVERVIEW

THE SPY WHO SHRUNK ME is a stealth game where you are a superspy armed with a shrink ray! It's 1981. Sneak onto a train inbound to Moscow and infiltrate a software company that harbors grave secrets bound to turn the Cold War into a very hot one. Armed with banana peels, airbag mines and the capability to shrink enemies and drop them in toilets and paper shredders, you are the only one standing between the dreaded General Bolscotchkovich and his Soviet army.

The Spy Who Shrunk Me is inspired by Ant-Man & Austin Powers while being a gigantic love letter to the legendary No One Lives Forever series of games.

AN EPIC STEALTH ESCAPADE

  • 🕵 Be agent AUDREY SMOOTHSPY, the only agent aloof enough to fight the Soviet army all by herself. Armed with a stolen Soviet shrink ray, an assorted inventory of spy gadgets and some banana peels, you're the only one affordable enough for the job of saving the free world!

  • 👢 Keep the cold war communist regime under your heels (literally) by (also literally) flushing their cronies down the toilet! Manipulate your enemies size using your trusty shrink ray. And when the going gets tough, zip past enemies as a tiny shrunk spy.

  • 👒Audrey's adventure takes you all the way to MOSCOW and BERLIN to find out what a sinister software company office complex is actually hiding within! Sneak aboard a train, defuse a nuke and kidnap a scientist into a purse! Don't get caught or risk getting stomped on!

  • 🎶 A fully voice-acted narrative adventure with multiple endings and music that makes you want to jam Soviets down paper shredders!

  • 🔮 Play your way! Challenge yourself by completing the adventure without killing anyone or without getting detected.
