About

CatsCatch

Features
Read full description

Catscatch is a simple game where you drag a hunter (cat) character to monsters (mouse) and the weapon flies away. You can catch many monsters within a set amount of time to level up and equip items. The background of the game story is a game where you can learn about local culture together with the background of Gyeongsangnam-do in Korea. A herd of mice suddenly appeared in the beautiful 'Namhae' area. You need to hire hunter cats to get rid of the swarms of mice. Cats each have one attribute of fire, earth, and water, and when hunting after wearing a weapon with the same attribute, elemental attacks have a certain probability. You can hunt more rats by hunting mice in various areas to raise the level and purchase various items with points acquired from hunting. Currently, only single player is applied, but duel mode and alliance mode will be added with continuous updates.
