The graphics are little weird, and it’s just… not really for kids under 9 But I have a few reckons Have more family members Have more directions And some more things to do ### 2/5 — Not real! *2026-03-29, version 1.2* It’s okay I guess it’s hard to understand though but when you do it’s actually kinda fun but REALLY unrealistic you literally can kill wolves,bears,deer,and these weird rock things ### 3/5 — Good but *2026-03-06, version 1.2* Ur game is b a d bad it really sucks get it if u want but read this first ### 4/5 — Warrior Cats PLEASE *2026-02-26, version 1.2* I am a HUGE FAN of Warriors Cats and I thought this game might be a close match. I do have some things to say about this game. Some good and some not so good. First of all you get stuck so easily and your energy/hunger/thirst runs down SO fast. It honestly is kind of scary I wouldn’t recommend for sensitive people and people under 11. You get ambushed so much that it is annoying. And after you defeat the final boss all that you do is really hunt and survive which is easy. The other thing is that it doesn’t give very good instructions and needs some updates every once in a while. The good side though is that you can build a family. You also get to customize your cat and pick the gender plus name. I wish there were more options for colors of a pelt though. There are so many places to explore and search. I would recommend this game for people who like cats or Warriors Cats. All though there are no Clans, apprentices, warriors, deputies, or leaders like in warrior cats it is so fun. Thank you for taking your time to read this. Have a great day! -Owlstar Warrior Cats ### 3/5 — Pretty fun *2026-02-26, version 1.2* It's pretty fun but the ambushes are super annoying but I know it won't be changed because this company stopped making games ### 3/5 — It is a decent game and all *2026-02-15, version 1.2* Yes, it is decent, more better made than lots of animal games I find in the app store, but there are a few problems. You get ambushed alot, like ALOT. Every minute a random animal comes to ambush me, it gets pretty annoying, especially when you are fighting bosses and stuff. Its too easy, like you should add a short cooldown to the attacks and stuff because you can just spam the button many times and BOOM! The animals you were attacking are dead. But if you want to add this, make the animals do less damage too. Because most enemies kill you instantly lol. Quests are too annoying, most of the quests just involves you walking across and around the map 4 times to either collect stuff or defeat bosses. Also a couple times my clan mates just get stuck somewhere and disappear until the next quest, like they are nowhere to be found or whatever. And alsoooo I expected the ending to be a bit better, since the whole game was about saving your brothers from dragons, I wish there was some story after that actually. I doubt the creators will see this since it seems the game hadn’t updated in 5 years, but just some criticism about the game. ### 4/5 — Love this game! *2024-06-06, version 1.2* This is super fun but I do wish you had more options for your role in the game. Like instead of just being a leader of your pack/group I wish you could also be a kitten or a different member of it. Other than that the game is very fun and I really enjoy it! It is fun and it is very realistic. There is also a different game of the series called cats of the arctic. If you like animals and adventure then this is a game I would recommend. ### 3/5 — Ends to fast🫤🙁 *2024-04-11, version 1.2* I am a HUGE! fan of Warrior cats and I wish it was more like that. I wish it had some side quests to play I think it gets boring after wining the game . ### 2/5 — Read now *2024-02-03, version 1.2* Ok so how do u eat and u can not not get any cool scans they all look so weird and this is not like warrior cats by Erin hunter or any of her books and I was like what when I got this and the controls are so hard and that is why I gave u 2 stars ### 3/5 — Nice game *2023-12-03, version 1.2* This is I good game but… -when you beat all the bosses or get all the stuff, there’s no way to reset the game -when you level up, you don’t really get stronger and so you could do the same boss like 3 times without beating it Other than that it’s a pretty good game ### 2/5 — Idk *2023-08-05, version 1.2* The animations are funny and the cats are so big. ### 4/5 — This game is good; I have some suggestions *2023-07-07, version 1.2* This game is really awesome! I have had Clan of Cats, this one, and Cats of the Arctic in the past. They are all really good. But there are some things I think you should fix. One, after you finish the game, there really isn’t anything you do except try to survive as long as you can (which, honestly, is pretty easy). I think you should add something you should do after the game is over, or at least make the game harder to beat. I finished this game in about a month (and that’s because the bug bosses were making me nervous so I neglected defeating them for a while) so after that there is really nothing to do. Two, I think you should be able to customize the gender of your character and your family. If you kinda wanted sisters instead of brothers, or to be able to make your offspring a son or daughter, I think you should be able to change it. And, lastly, I would like to request a complete black cat with green eyes skin. That would be really awesome. I love black cats SO MUCH (I’m already pretty unlucky 😂) and so do a lot of other people. I bet they’d love a black cat skin. Thank you for your consideration in reading this. I hope you at least consider these requests. Developer, please reply! -Twilightfern, the medicine cat of ShadowClan (if you read warriors then you will know what I mean) ### 4/5 — Overall it’s great *2023-05-21, version 1.2* I am a HUUUUUGE fan of warrior cats like I’m like it so much my friends say I’m too obsessed with those books.By the way I’m 9 years old right now. I love it but I do have some suggestions. So first, it’s kinda annoying when you turn around to eat some prey but your family is blocking you. Second, I hate it how there’s to many ambush attacks and die too much so I have to watch ads. Third, I wish there was like a clan, and the player begins with beings a kit and soon become the leader. Details are like how you name cats: so there appears a wheel of prefixes and you/the leader spins the wheel same with the suffix. I think that’s all and I love the game. Good job making it I’d like to see more of these 👍🏻🐈 ### 4/5 — Nice game,but maybe a few changes *2023-05-10, version 1.2* The graphics could be a little improved,especially when you try to turn your cat around,but everything else is pretty good. ### 4/5 — Good game but… *2023-03-03, version 1.2* So let’s get this straight over with there’s one problem with the game I countered I couldn’t move and eat :( ### 4/5 — It’s ok *2022-12-23, version 1.2* Not bad, but has a lot of flaws. Once you kill the final boss you can’t do anything other than hunting, and the mini boss fights leading up to the final boss are pretty repetitive. The controls are pretty badly made, and the cats get stuck a lot. There also aren’t a lot of ways to customize your cats besides the 8 skins available, and the tattoos. it would be a lot better if there were some accessories to choose or something. Also, there are way too many ads. You get two ads when you die, one when you open the main menu, and randomly during the game. Sometimes it gives me a ad when I’m fighting something, and when it ends I’m dead. The ambush attacks are way too strong early in the game, and too easy to kill late game. It gets quite boring after a hour or so, but I do occasionally play when I have nothing else to. The entire game would be greatly improved if you just added a few more things to do after the final boss, and maybe a few more customization options ### 4/5 — Kind of nostalgic *2022-12-01, version 1.2* For me your games remind me of the times when I was still with my mum. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not enough food! *2026-08-16, version 1.2* Only when you spawn there’s a lot of food and make it so the hunger bar when it goes to none make it take some of your health at a time not kill you!and I hate how you lose everything when you die ### 1/5 — Not good *2026-03-30, version 1.2* Not very fun, glitchy, and the bosses are hard and everything else is too easy I also agree it’s scary so don’t let kids under like 12 play it ### 1/5 — Twilight tail✨ *2026-03-18, version 1.2* Terrible walking graphics can’t see where I’m going 😑😡 seeing is kinda important and I really want to find a good warrior cat game or something like it but game makers disagree ### 1/5 — Cats of the forest needs work *2026-03-06, version 1.2* Cats of the forest needs to be worked on, it directs u to much and I need the screen to be like Roblox, like it needs to be able to look behind you and it needs to be able to have a button that controls if u walk or run or trot. And u need to have your cat eat longer. It goes to fast. And it needs to have more cats unlocked when u first play. ### 1/5 — Bad app! I’m Sorry it has so many adds! *2024-03-10, version 1.2* One time when I was on this killing cave bosses 20 adds pop in I’m stuck! Bop until dead like I had to try 15 times seriously 😒! I hate this please fix it! ### 1/5 — Eww *2024-02-18, version 1.2* At first when I started playing, the cats 🐈 front leg joints were pushed out more in front and I thought It looked really weird. Then let me start with the graphics.. they are not bad, but not great.. Lastly, when you move around, you are constantly running and there is no walk, jog, etc. And when you jump, you jump really high, and I don’t know if it's just me, or is the cat in the game really skinny and not that realistic like in the pictures?? But thank you for putting your hard work and development into this game! ☺️🥰 ### 1/5 — Read before buying! *2024-01-27, version 1.2* Honestly? This game is terrible. The animations are repetitive and unrealistic - you can’t name you family members or play as them! You have to constantly be eating and drinking or you die - if you don’t drink in 30 seconds, the game ends. The missions your given are super hard. I don’t recommend this game to anyone! ### 1/5 — Hate it 😐 *2022-11-11, version 1.2* Horrible just horrible ### 1/5 — Do not get this game unless you want to be disappointed *2022-07-02, version 1.2* Ok so, I got this game an hour ago and deleted it in twenty minutes max. The cat is creepy and weird looking but that isn’t even the main problem. It was so so laggy! Whenever I moved it glitched and I ended up nowhere and had to restart the game I don’t know If it was just my device or something else. But do not get this game I know a way better game actually two, (more than that) wild craft, and sky are both very beautiful five star games! I’m sorry to be so negative ty for reading ### 1/5 — Fine. NOT MY FAVORITE!!! *2022-06-22, version 1.2* I only do Reviews for my favorite games and this is NOT a favorite. 1. How do u even WALK!? I got in and all i did was run. I searched up ‘Warrior Cats’ and this is showed up and it looked cool but as soon as i got in all i did was run. 3 minutes after i got it I deleted it. 2. The controls are so hard! And the cats look weird like how their neck is. If u want this game DON’T, it may look nice but, it’s not. NOT MY FAVORITE GAME!!! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Stuff *2026-05-09, version 1.2* Pls add a mate and animal tracker pls pls pls good game so far pls add my changes ;3 ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-04-08, version 1.2* I love it!!😻 I read the warrior cats graphic novels and this is kinda like them.

But the animations are so funny and this game had me laughing my head off. But if your looking for quality, this game may not be for you. Best game ever. ### 5/5 — Great Warriors Game! But the quest are tricky sometimes. Read to the end! *2022-12-04, version 1.2* Hi. I am a HUGE, HUGE Warrior Cats fan, so I decided to type in Warrior Cats in the search bar. And actually, you get some, strange results. But I found this game, tried it out, and loved it!!!! This is like a Warriors game! (Like Warrior Cats? Go on YouTube and subscribe on Bright Guardian Akira! Note: I am not Bright Guardian Akira! He talks all about Warrior Cats and even plays Minecraft! Check him out today for Warriors content!) just, the quest are a little tricky sometimes. So, please make them easier and also, they give just, so much detail when they give you a quest. (That was sarcastic) but overall, I love the game. -Squirrelflight P.S: check out my podcast on Apple Podcast and Spotify! I talk all about Warrior Cats there!
