If you long press on your cat with the white circle around him, you can select a magical spell or skill to use. To attack enemies, just tap on one to select them, and then your cat auto attacks with melee hits. Optionally, you could long press to continually move, but it can get uncomfortable after a while, or your fingers may be blocking the screen. To move, just tap where you want to go, and the cat goes there. Everything is also available from the get-go, so you could go into a high level dungeon super early on, but this is not recommended.Ĭontrols in Cat Quest are easy enough, but may take a bit of getting used to. This is great when you’re lost and want to see exactly where you’re going. The overworld also has a pointer that tells you where to go for your quests, and you can zoom out and view the overview map by tapping on the button in the bottom right corner. You can engage in combat with them on the overworld, or just avoid them altogether if they’re too tough. As you move around on the overworld, you’ll see enemies scurrying about around you. The biggest draw of Cat Quest is the fact that everything is done in real-time, so there’s no waiting around. Everything is told through quests, whether they’re main quests relating to the story, or side quests that you can do for experience, loot, and rewards. Villages and NPCs reveal themselves to you as the story unfolds. All of your traveling is done on the overworld, as well as combat. Once the premise of the plot is revealed, you’ll embark on a journey of getting strong enough to defeat the dragons. Since Cat Quest is an adventure game at heart, players discover and unravel the story of a cat hero who carries the mark of the “Dragonblood” on his head. Needless to say, Cat Quest is worth getting just for the graphics and music alone. Cat Quest also has a mystical, adventurous soundtrack that fits your journey perfectly, and the sound effects are top notch. Animations are buttery smooth and fluid, so I had no issues with lag on my iPhone 7. Character sprites are all unique and easily identifiable, from NPCs to enemies. Cat Quest has a rich color palette with bright and vibrant hues that shift to darker and more muted tones depending on the area.
It’s easy to interact with buildings and dungeons, and there’s even more sprawling areas to explore. All of your traveling is done on the overworld map, which is gorgeous with lush grass, forests, villages, mountains, caves, and seas. The game features 2.5-D rendered graphics, as it has a cartoon-like style but with an angled perspective that gives it plenty of depth. Now that it’s finally here, I must say that it does not disappoint. How can I say no to such an awesome mix? After seeing the demo in action, I could not wait for this game and was eager for it to hit the App Store. I mean, you’re combining three of my favorite things into one: RPGs, dungeon crawling, and cats. I had managed to try out an early demo of Cat Quest during GDC this year, and I fell in love immediately. While there are many clones of Diablo, none have really captured my heart like the original. I’ve even picked up Diablo 3 and have poured hundreds of hours into it.
After Diablo 2, I loved dungeon crawlers and tried out whatever I could that fell under the category. There was nothing quite as satisfying as slaying hordes of enemies with powerful attacks. Through these friends I found out about Diablo 2, and then my love for dungeon crawling RPGs grew. If you love Diablo-like games such as the Dungeon Hunter series, but want something a bit more lighthearted and full of furry felines, then Cat Quest is the game for you.Īs I was going through high school and hung out with my group of friends, I discovered Japanese RPGs and more video game genres than my typical puzzle or platformer titles. Cat Quest ($4.99) by The Genlebros is an action-packed, real-time dungeon crawling RPG adventure that’s full of dragons, danger, and cats.
