Areioi cast his envious eye down on the earth below, something glinted in the sun and he wanted it. Swopping down his tallons wide open, Areioi grabbed the fish with a single effective lunge. Katsu Kat helplessly looked on, for he too had his eye on the sumptuous looking fish. Help Katsu recover his hearts desire from Areioi’s dungeon, deep in the earth. You’ll first have to escape form the Grand House patrolled by Areioi’s obedient robots, dash across patrolled forests, lakes of Katsu eating fish, avoid fire in the lowest depths of the dungeons and even be teleported into space. It’s an awful lot for little Katsu to do. Features: 13 Challenging levels to complete. 20 Enemies to pit yourself against. Multiple End Of Level Baddies. Level Save Points. Full Game, No InApp purchases. No Ads.
