Catfinity: Idle Cat RPG

HARVEST MEWN, NOV 1-30

Catfinity's harvest event is here. Five harvest bosses take turns at the daily raid, Kinpachi the Harvest-Moon Tanuki and Akabane the Mountain Tengu lead the world boss fights, and lantern-lit dungeons open on marigold altars and flooded rice paddies. Hire turkey purr-cenaries at the Inn and the Tavern, trade acorns at the Harvest Cart for beanies, specs and flannel, and dress the Garden, Ranch and Tavern for autumn.

Your cats have jobs. Your tavern has customers. Somewhere in your pond, a rainbow fish is swimming around.

Catfinity is a cozy idle cat RPG. Adopt a colony of pixel cats, give every one of them a job, and let them work, cook, fish, farm and go adventuring, even while your phone is in your pocket.

You start with one Tabby and a single tap. Before long you are running a whole little world.

OPEN THE TAVERN

Put on an apron and start a shift. Diners fill the tables, each wanting something your pantry can make. Cook to order in the Kitty Kitchen and put your cats on the floor as server, bus cat and dishwasher.

Earn renown and your Corner Pub grows, level by level, into a Famous Tavern. When the lanterns go out, tired cats curl up at the Inn and dream.

GIVE EVERY CAT A CALLING

Thirty-five jobs, from Rancher and Fishercat to Ninja, Necromancer and Pyromancer, each with its own look and levels. Spin the Job Wheel to try a new one.

GO ON AN ADVENTURE

Build a balanced five-cat party of tank, healer, support and damage, read the real odds, and send them after loot. A failed run costs you time, never your cats.

• Take on a daily raid boss with stances and weaknesses

• Check the Watchtower for the week ahead and keep a Field Guide of every boss you have felled

• After your first Purrvana, chase a feather up the endless Scratching Post

• After a Cosmic Nap, hold the wall with the whole colony in the Long Night

GONE FISHIN'

Cast into a pixel pond stocked with 58 fish, from Sardine to Golden Koi, with rare chests, better rods and bait. Send a little AutoFish robot out to fish while you do something else. Keep your favorites in the Aquarium and watch for the one extremely elusive Rainbow Shark.

COOK, GROW, RAISE

• Cook dishes in the Kitty Kitchen that give your cats real buffs for dungeons and raids

• Grow crops in the Gardens and carry them straight to the tavern

• Raise chickens, ducks, bees, pigs, sheep, cows, horses and more on the Ranch, and collect eggs, milk and honey

• Let grown-up animals carry a cat into battle

• Set a cat on an egg in the Hatchery and wait to see what hatches

FORGE AND COLLECT

Smelt ore into bars at the Blacksmith, temper your gear, and melt spare pieces together into something rarer. Brew enchantments, runes and Purrscriptions at the NekoMancer. Hunt for quirky trinkets and dress your own pixel avatar to match.

NAP YOUR WAY UP

The prestige ladder is built around the laziest thing a cat does. Take a nap, wake up stronger, then climb from naps to Cosmic Naps, Purrvana and Catfinity itself. Seasonal events like Meow-lloween bring pumpkin bosses, costumes and a Trick-or-Treat stall.

Monthly leaderboards reset for everyone at once, so a new colony is never racing a two-year-old one, and more than 500 achievements wait along the way.

QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK

What kind of game is this?

An idle RPG, also called incremental or AFK. The numbers go up while you are away, and when you check back in there is a real RPG waiting: jobs, parties, gear, dungeons, a raid boss, a tavern and a pond.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Your colony keeps earning the whole time you are gone, and the game plays fine with no connection.

Is it free?

Free to play, and playable forever without paying. Purchases are optional: cosmetics, music, extra room for gardens, pastures and nests, and small boosts. There are no paywalls. Ads are optional and always rewarded.

Grab a cat. Take a nap. Reach Catfinity.
