You’re Mikan, a no-nonsense cat running a struggling shelter with your human companion, Matsue. Rescue strays, match them with adopters, and keep the lights on without losing your morals. Every decision counts. Do you turn away a sick cat when you're low on funds? Or approve an adoption that doesn’t feel quite right?
Rescue and Rehabilitate: Each cat has its own unique personality. Some quickly warm up; others require patience and special attention.
Find the Perfect Match: Carefully evaluate potential adopters. A mismatched adoption might ease finances but risks a cat's happiness.
Customize Your Shelter: Expand and upgrade your shelter, designing spaces and even opening a cat café to attract visitors.
Moral Dilemmas with Real Stakes – Every decision impacts the shelter’s future. Should you prioritize financial stability over waiting for the perfect adopter?
Playful Cat Battles – Inspired by classic fighting games, combat is anything but typical. Use real cat behaviors like ignoring foes for emotional damage, kicking litter, scratching, and even sitting on enemies’ faces. Players execute on-screen key combos to attack, heal, or defend in a battle system unlike anything seen in standard RPGs.
A Cat’s Perspective on Communication – Matsue can only hear "meow." You might be telling her to buy food, but she thinks you need the litter box cleaned. Misinterpretations affect how the shelter runs, leading to unexpected (and sometimes hilarious) outcomes.
Real-World Impact – Support Shelters While You Play – Through limited-time in-game charity bundles, a portion of proceeds will go to real-life cat rescues. Players can unlock exclusive in-game rewards, such as cat outfits, shelter decorations, and special-themed items, while helping real cats in need.
Immerse yourself in a charming world blending pixel art and soft, painterly visuals. Experience warmth, humour, and depth in each moment spent at the shelter.
One cat can change everything. Will you help Mikan transform Neko House into a prosperous sanctuary?
