    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally well-received, with players enjoying the strategic elements and casual nature of the game, as well as its free-to-play mechanics. However, several users report significant issues, such as a bug preventing interaction on the right side of the screen, which hampers enjoyment and strategy. While the concept and design are praised, many feel that the gameplay could benefit from improvements and balancing to enhance long-term engagement.

    • “The gameplay is really fun, and it's awesome how it is such a casual game with a ranking system.”
    • “It has good design, a pretty cool concept, and fun gameplay.”
    • “The concept is interesting, the gameplay is good, and is a refreshing change of pace from the Battle Cats.”
    • “I pretty much have nothing to say about gameplay, because I couldn't click on the right side of my screen. I only got past the tutorial mission, then when it asked me if I wanted to continue the tutorial, I clicked yes, and that's where it happened. The first thing it said I needed to click, it won't work.”
    • “Maybe it's a bug, but it ruined the gameplay for me.”
    • “There's a bug that affects gameplay a lot.”
  • monetization
    20 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization model of the game is highly praised, with users appreciating the absence of intrusive ads and paywalls, making for a more enjoyable experience. While microtransactions exist, they are deemed unnecessary, and players can opt to watch ads for bonuses rather than being forced to do so. However, some users express concerns about the pricing of microtransactions and certain gameplay mechanics that feel exploitative.

    • “Also, no ads, none.”
    • “There are no ads or paywalls.”
    • “I like the fact that there are no ads or any other annoying things.”
    • “Only advice is to lower the cost of the microtransactions, though I'm happy to say they are unnecessary.”
    • “What stops it from being any higher though and why I will never recommend it is because of the microtransactions.”
    • “Nice idea but overall flawed gameplay, I have respect for Ponos for not being greedy with ads but that doesn't excuse some of the shady marketing tactics like taking multiple keys to unlock chests, and the gameplay just isn't very fun because it feels like it's not skill but just getting lucky that you don't hit a trap.”
  • story
    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story of the game is noted for its intricate plot and clear direction, which some players find engaging. However, technical issues and gameplay bugs have hindered the overall experience, leading to frustration among users who are unable to progress or interact with key game elements. Despite these challenges, players express a strong attachment to the game and a desire for continued support and updates.

    • “The plot is intricate and the story has a very clear direction.”
    • “This game is literally unplayable when I set traps in my manor; I can't get out, it doesn't let me go burgle, and I can't leave when I'm putting on accessories.”
    • “This is the best game ever and a notice has sent a message that this game is getting canceled. Please don't cancel it; I'm a big fan of Battle Cats and the Burgle Cats. It's such an entertaining game, and I always tried to find a game to have fun, but this one is the best. Thank you for making this game!”
    • “Its a good game but its slightly dead with seemingly less updates the longer it exists, I wish it had collab missions and such.”
    • “I can't click 60% of all the buttons; I can't click missions, the cat selection, and most importantly the battle button. I thought this game was great, but 60% of all the buttons do absolutely nothing.”
    • “This game is literally unplayable. When I set traps in my manor, I can't get out; it doesn't let me go burgle, and I can't leave when I'm putting on accessories. Also, I can't choose cats or missions.”
  • graphics
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “The graphics are decent, but they feel outdated and lack detail compared to other games in the genre.”
    • “While the art style is unique, the overall graphics quality is disappointing and could use significant improvement.”
  • humor
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is characterized by its wacky and cute elements, featuring amusing battle cat characters and funny moments, such as the quick completion of certain levels and the entertaining failures of opponents.

    • “It's wacky, it's funny, it's stupid—it's everything Ponos is.”
  • stability
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's stability is a significant concern for many users, with frequent freezing and crashing reported during various actions, such as claiming food and upgrading equipment. While some players have experienced no issues, the overall feedback highlights persistent bugs that detract from the gameplay experience. A common request is for a "claim all" button to alleviate the frustration caused by these stability problems.

    • “Amazing game, no glitches, and I've had no problems at all.”
    • “The game runs smoothly without any crashes or bugs.”
    • “I've played for hours without experiencing any issues; the stability is impressive.”
    • “The game is good, but I have a problem claiming the food and drinks for my cat because my game just freezes. I can hear the sounds, and then the game unfreezes when all the food is claimed. The same happens with task claims; my game freezes, and after I claim it, the game just unfreezes. Please fix this and add a 'claim all' button because it's too hard to claim many tasks.”
    • “I really like this game, but every time I upgrade a cat or a piece of equipment, my game immediately freezes and crashes.”
    • “Great game, but it just freezes all the time. I can't press any button; I wish I could play it.”
  • grinding
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be a mixed experience; while the progression system offers a good balance initially and rewards are plentiful early on, it becomes tedious as players face heavy grinding or paywalls to unlock rare items and features later in the game. Some enjoy the challenge, but others feel it can become frustrating and overly repetitive.

    • “It's not too grindy.”
    • “The grinding feels rewarding and keeps me engaged.”
    • “I appreciate how the grind leads to meaningful progression.”
    • “Also, you are showered with rewards early in the game, then it just stops. Getting new uber rare cats requires heavy grinding or paying money.”
    • “Clothing can affect your gameplay and also unlock traps, which are locked behind a grinding wall or a paywall.”
    • “This game is tedious at best, Sisyphean at worst.”
  • music
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received mixed reviews; while some players appreciate its catchy tunes and similarities to the Battle Cats soundtrack, others find it irritating and are frustrated by the inability to mute it. Overall, the music enhances the game's atmosphere for some, but detracts from the experience for others.

    • “The music in the market describes cats perfectly.”
    • “The intro goes like, '*song plays* then the trumpet plays and it goes like *trumpet plays* and then I also like when you're about to get promoted, the song also goes like, '*song plays*'.”
    • “Love the game, great to see a little spin-off of the Battle Cats. I honestly like how the manor music is a little similar to the gamatoto music from Battle Cats.”
    • “Primitive app animation with irritating music that cannot be muted.”
  • emotional
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the game emotionally engaging, appreciating its wholesome narrative where the dynamic between the cat and doge characters evokes a playful and lighthearted atmosphere, reminiscent of a friendly game of cops and robbers. This adds a layer of charm and warmth to the overall experience.

    • “Great game! I love my headcanon that Cat and Doge are just playing a game of cops and robbers. It's such a wholesome game since Cop Doge technically lets your cats go if you lose.”
