Cat Rescue Story from NACON and Tivola brings us a cozy game in which you’ll care for a ton of cats as you try to find them a new home. After you inherit your great aunt Olivia’s family home, you’ll be encouraged and helped by the neighborhood to turn this property into a shelter for cats. You’ll be interacting with cats of more than 50 different breeds as you also work on expanding this new location so that it can achieve its full potential. As you feed and care for the cats, you’ll be taking on some short mini-games that will allow you to clean up cats, as well as take care of their medical needs, all while you bond with them so that you can find them a new home.
Before you begin this new journey, you’ll first have to customize your character’s look so that you can make it your own. First, we will choose its body type and skin color. You can pick the head type, hairstyle, hair color, eyebrows, eyes, and eye color for your character as well. Choose its head shape, nose, and mouth type. Once all of that has been taken care of, you’ll be able to pick its clothing. Choose a top, a bottom, and your shoes, and you’ll be ready to go.
Once you’re ready to go, you’ll walk and run through each area by using the left analog stick as you use the right analog stick to control the camera and zoom in and out as needed. You’ll use the X button to confirm your actions. This includes setting up a cat spot where you can feed and give water to cats, as well as well as add fresh litter. You can also pet cats to make them feel happy or brush them to clean them up.
By checking each cat, you’ll get a better idea of their current needs. The more you take care of a cat, the more it will trust you! You won’t have many resources when you begin this new mission, so you’ll have to make do with the discount water, cheap discount food, small bags of discount litter, the Cat Coins you’re provided with, as well as the tools used to fix this and that. You won’t be able to fix anything if you run out of tools, so you’ll need to work hard on completing tasks so that you can obtain rewards and more Cat Coins. Cat Coins can be used to purchase special decorations, as well as to buy some cat treats, seeds, water, food, med kits, and more.
As it’s been a while since your great-aunt took care of the house, you’ll also have to work on fixing things up here and there so that you can hopefully turn the house into a proper shelter for cats. You won’t be able to fix everything right away since some rooms and areas will not be opened for you until you progress further in the game. Some spots can’t be fixed until you complete a specific chapter. You’ll quickly run out of space, so don’t forget that there are people ready to adopt cats! Match a cat’s traits to what someone is looking for in their potential new pet, and you’ll soon be ready to make a lot of cats and people very happy!
And now, let’s talk about the trophies! This Cross-Buy release offers a full trophy list with a Platinum trophy, which means that if you own a PS5 console, you can work on adding not one but two Platinum trophies to your collection! Each list will be split into 34 Bronze trophies, 10 Silver trophies, and a pair of Gold trophies. The first trophy to pop will be for starting this new journey. After that one, the objectives to complete include petting 5 cats, helping a cat be adopted, treating 5 cats in the medical room, grooming 10 cats, treating cats with fleas 10 times, discovering every common fur color, rescuing 15 cats, discovering a rare cat, completing 25 challenges, completing 60 renovation tasks, discovering an epic cat, and rescuing 150 cats, to name some examples.
