An idle game about watching a cat stroll. Pet it, tap it, maybe find some treasure. There are no missions or deep story. Simply relax and enjoy watching a cat. 【World & How to Play】 In a cute pixel-art world, a cat strolls around while muttering to itself. A free-spirited cat spends its days talking, playing, sleeping, and eating whenever it likes. The cat shows many different expressions. This is a relaxing game where everything is simply watched and enjoyed. Tapping the cat changes its mood, and sometimes treasures are found. Tapping empty spaces can gently guide the cat in that direction. Treasures that are found can be collected, including some rare ones. Stars are also earned when treasures are found. As more stars are collected, the level increases. The chance of finding rare treasures is influenced by mood, stars, and level. Fish and medicine can be bought, and the cat's appearance can also be changed. There are 5 different looks: black, white, tabby, calico, and gray. Giving the cat fish improves its mood. Medicine increases the level, but may worsen the cat's mood. There are 3 different stages: Residential Area, City, and Fairytale World. They become available as progress is made. There is also a small background story— keep watching, and an unexpected truth may be revealed. 【Story】 My name is Sora, meow I just relax here every day, meow 【Recommended For】 Anyone who loves cats and wants to relax while watching over one 【Planning & Development】 ■ Team Moko App https://www.facebook.com/TeamMoko 【Music】 ■Free BGM provided by MOMIZizm MUSiC https://music.storyinvention.com/
