About

PachNeko

Read full description

PachNeko is a colorful 3D pachinko machine filled with mechanical cats. Set the handle power, launch your balls and watch them bounce through the pins of a fully simulated board. Every ball in the white heso spins the reels. Three matching symbols: JACKPOT. Then the red mouth opens for the Fever, and in kakuhen the little right pocket pays twice as much. It is a game of chance, like a real pachinko: there is no secret right power, just balls, pins and luck. EVERY RUN • Start with 100 balls. • Reach 300 balls to adopt Bigsterion, your first companion. The next cats need 1,000 balls. • Adopt Poupoune, Astarourouh and Gisèle, then pet them, play with them and feed them in the cattery. FEATURES • A real-time 3D board with physics: pins, windmills, pockets and the heso. • Reach, Super Reach and Fever sequences on the cat-shaped screen. • The Academy: a guided first game that explains everything on the real board, at your own pace. • Short runs made for mobile. • Available in 8 languages. 7 DAYS FREE, THEN ONE PURCHASE • The whole game is free for 7 days, no sign-up. • After that, a one-time purchase (no subscription) unlocks PachNeko for good. It can be restored at any time. • Without the purchase, the game stays locked after the 7 days. No ads, no account, no tracking. Progress is saved on the device and the game works offline. PachNeko contains no betting, no real money, no cash prizes and no exchangeable items.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: PachNeko at none against Flying Maguro's shown. Flying Maguro's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
