Stop the cat puns and speak straight. Play Life as a Cat Her Sim is back. In reality, there is gardening, foraging, decorating, courtship of fellow cats, and a fair amount of feline fighting. Cattails: Wildwood Story Is Set For His Late 2023 Release, But A Demo Is Available Now on Steam.
I played my first Cattails game. Gama It was released many years ago in 2017, but I was surprised to find that it actually has a big territory management and combat aspect in addition to the usual comforting activities of similar life sims. It’s also returned in the sequel, sending a colony of cats to claim a new home and put down roots there as well as fighting other feline factions on the map.
Cattails: Wildwood Story’s new demo lets you play through the first season of the game. This is only 10 days for him, which is shorter than his 28-day season that most farm sims assume. Start by choosing the official name and designation of your cat’s clan (clan, kingdom, syndicate, etc.) and your title (captain, king, foreman, director, etc.) and design your custom cat at a ridiculous level of detail. increase. I guess the level of administrative specificity I should have expected from cats.
Instead of running around to meet a bunch of cat characters out of the blue, we were asked to build a temple for our cat spirits. And I guess I should be grateful that the lion doesn’t mind being my wild keeper god. And start collecting offerings to invite a new cat into my clan (Timberland Syndicate, if you’re interested).
I spent the first season hunting squirrels and other critters in the woods and started battling other AI cat clans that hang out there to stake the rights to other grid squares on the map . There’s also a minor survival element of keeping the hunger meter full, and special cat combat skills such as the knockback roar.
What I enjoyed about the original Cattails was that they didn’t mind being a little goofy. It’s a pixel art cat game with detailed cat portraits and cat romance, incorporating turf-wide control and management elements. That’s certainly true of what I played in the Wildwood Story demo, which features Fus-Ro-Dah-like cat screams, lovingly rendered feline companions, and extreme character creation details. .
Cattails: Wildwood Story is taking part in the massive Steam Next Fest demo event this month, but ahead of it, its own demo is available today.
