Reigning Cats

I bought this game because I love cats and tower defense games, so how could I go wrong? Unfortunately, it could go wrong. The progression mechanics were not what I was expecting and I soon ran into a situation where I couldn't beat a boss wave without upgrades. I couldn't get upgrades without money and I couldn't get easy access to money without progressing. This left me with scooping a cat box as my only means of making money. After five minutes of scooping a virtual cat box, I asked myself what I was doing and requested a refund. I really wish I would have liked it.

This game is fun when it is working.. The game for several people keeps crashing. When you are farming poop for money it may crash but the most fustrating part is when it crashing during end game boss!!! The game is unplayable if you are looking to complete it or maintain a stable game. (Updates: Please read comments for further important info on the game.) If you want to play it casual sure go for it. The game is cute.. A basic tower defense game with mainly kittens and puppies! You build your castle and you must defend it against several animals like bees and bad puppies! As you farm in either this shop serving cat customers or in the cat litter scooping up poop it sure has several hours of playing time to keep you entertained (when the game isnt crashing) http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=516104659 Final thoughts? Do not bother with the game until the game is fixed. Like srsly fixed not just some minor patch. 50% of the time it will crash with a "Memory Error" problem. In general the game is a cute and has a fun concept. Do not need much skill to complete it just farm loads (hrs and days just scooping poop) and bam you should be able to still beat it. if you are lucky enough it does not give you any errors. Skip this game and find yourself a more stable title! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=516104841

Game won't launch, dev non-responsive for over a month. Take a pass on this game.

7min of this game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TNRYN7u1rQ The main game is a tower defense where you defend against waves of dogs but later you can play as the dogs attacking. basics are: get money, upgrade castle, get new mercs, buy items and repeat. you get cash from 2 mini games and fending off hoards of dogs. the 2 mini games are feeding your mercs (they sit and ask for stuff and you drag it down from up top to them), and cleaning the litter box (shift litter for droppings and item). the tower defense is basic stuff if you played one before. if not you have some cash to start with and buy then place units. as you take out incoming attackers you'll get a cash value for them so you can buy more units or items. you can also steal money with rogues and by sending kitties on adventures. each unit has 2 abilities with 6 units in all not counting the kitty king with his own buyable abilities. the round ends by losing your kitty king or downing all 5 bosses. the big bad wolf mode here you play as the dogs storming the castle. the wolf wonders the field and uses cards to do various thing but mostly to summon other dogs to attack. this mode ends when your wolf dies or you down the lead cat.

*NEW REVIEW 8-31-15* Changed to "recommended" for anyone even slightly interested in tower defense games and cats. The best part is probably the dev's quick response to fixing the issues myself and other reviewers have had with the game, including bugs. Since the dev has now fixed the bugs preventing me from progressing, I can now see more of the changes made since my original review (below). I have not earned my way to the different modes yet, so I'm just on the first one and my review only covers that. I'm playing in ez mode where Kingkat does not take your coins down to 500 as he did originally (and still does in the harder mode). In ez mode you get to keep whatever you earn and take as much as you want into battle. This may be OP and not challenging for many players, and those players can of course choose to play the harder mode. Since tower defense games aren't really my favorite (this is the only one I own in fact) it's a welcome casual feel for me and anyone looking for a casual but still fun experience would enjoy this, no doubt. Even with unlimited coins allowed in battle, you still can't expect to breeze through the game without earning upgrades and being tactical in your approach to defense. Dev has also made the litterbox minigame much less annoying than it was originally. It's now much faster paced. Now too that I've been able to progress well it's not even necessary to play it since I can get a ton of coins from actual tower defense, but you do get free items from playing it and coins are always useful so it's never a pointless game, but can be avoided after a lot of progression if you desire. The Chow minigame could be avoided as well if you find yourself drowning in coins from simply chewing on dogs instead, but I find it interesting. In case viewers opt not to read my original review below, the last part is still valid, so a repeat here: "The music is also quite catchy and the style of the game is fitting for what it seems like it's trying to be, not really sure how to describe the style though without coming off as though I don't like it. I'm neutral on that stance if anything, it's in no way bad." The only issue I see now is that there doesn't appear to be a way to swap modes, so once you choose ez or hard you're stuck with it. Will suggest that among a couple other things in a post on the forums, otherwise I feel it's solid from what I've seen so far. ----------- *ORIGINAL REVIEW* I suppose I should start with the disclaimer that I'm not usually a fan of tower defense games. This is in fact the only one I own. Unfortunately, this is much less a tower defense and more a litter box cleaning simulator. Yes, you can earn coins by other means, but here's the main problems with those means: 1. The "chow" mini game (where you feed cats for coins and to be able to earn them for free use during battle) can only be played once and only if you progressed during your last run. I've not been able to play it after 3 runs now, I assume that's because each time I only managed to make it to wave 10 each time, never beating my highest score. 2. If you have more than 500 coins before entering battle, Kingkat takes all of your excess coins from you. He does NOT return them afterwards. If you're stuck like I am, this really sucks because that means you can't actually gain any coins simply by battling, you absolutely must play the litter box mini game and ONLY the litter box mini game to earn upgrades. Now, this would be fine if the litterbox mini game was not tedious and irritating... but it is. Grab one poo, another appears, sometimes multiple. The small ones are worth 60, large worth 100, and it takes a bit of time to sift them, so it's not instant pick up. There's also the little waves of urine odor which can be dealt with with a spray that you earn through the litterbox mini game, but they also vanish over time if you just leave them. If you do manage to clear out the whole litter box you get a rain of money until something appears again. It's quite difficult to keep the box cleared though, so you sit there having to poke at it for quite a while before being able to upgrade anything. If the dev reads this at all, I would ask you to consider either changing the way the litterbox minigame works (make it less tedious or make cleaning it more worth while) or add other means of making money, maybe more mini games or make battling more worthwhile (no more greedy Kingkats maybe). If any of that gets changed I will gladly revisit the game and consider changing my review to "recommended" instead of not. If you can get past the tediousness of the upgrades system, the tower defense part is pretty fun from what I've been able to see so far. The music is also quite catchy and the style of the game is fitting for what it seems like it's trying to be, not really sure how to describe the style though without coming off as though I don't like it. I'm neutral on that stance if anything, it's in no way bad.

I tried, but never got through the first boss fight at the 10th wave. Lost interest because it's not clear how to proceed - do I need to grind harder for me money to unlock more powerful stuff before I can kill the boss, or am I doing something totally wrong? I'd happily switch my tactics if that's the problem, but am not interest in a pure grindfest.

The game is funny and challenging. I got this game from groupees.com for 3 bucks as a bonus but it feels like it's worth is more than what I paid for. It's a different kind of Tower Defense, it requires decision making wether you have to take the beating alone to gain more gold at game over, or you can continue to dare and try if your cat defenses are strong enough for the next wave. There are 6 cats with different attacks and each with 2 modes(needs upgrading). And the king can have up to 6 different modes/attacks. There are a total of 13 dogs with different attacks and you need to remember how to deal with them so you can protect the king. The Bosses are quite challenging, but there's a line up of who's coming first so you can prepare and set up your defenses accordingly. The mini games are a nice change of pace since the main game can get frantic. [strike]But the only thing is the litter box can be tedious.[/strike] Since last update, there are now two game modes where the king requires donation everytime you go to battle and the other one is more casual and relax mode. There are three additional games to unlock, one you have to buy from the dog, the other one from finishing the main game, and the third which is night mode only(hard). Overall, it's a fun game and yes it has some flaws, but it looks like the developer is putting a lot of efforts and constantly updating it. You can see the dedication and love that the developers puts in it. If you love tower defense, I think you should give this a try.

A standard "defend-the-king" game in a cat skin. The premise is interesting but the game just doesn't deliver. The earlygame relies too much on 'grinding' through a separate mini-game which involves scooping out a litterbox - read: repetitive poop scoop which is no fun at all. No health bars on the regular enemies makes it more of a guessing game rather than a strategy challenge. And the biggest issue I have with this game is the combination of the bosses having too much health, being able to spawn multiple minions and that individual arrows fired are rendered - I came to write this review because I [u]literally[/u] spent an hour going from level 1 to 50, and took the final boss down to half health... only to be greeted by a pop-up which said "Fatal memory overflow". Clicking "OK" killed the game... and all my progress. A quick check of the Discussions showed that memory and game crashes have been an issue for at least 6 months. 0/10 will not recommend. Impossible to complete.
