Storyline and Characters

Immerse yourself into this crazy game full of action. You will become a prisoner that found himself on an island after his ship had wrecked. In the beginning of the game a narrator tells the story of hundreds of friends who were travelling on S.S. Friendship. Hatty Hattington was the best friend to each passenger and all of them at once and a leader figure. The heavy storm caused the ship to wreck and all of the passengers were left stranded on a mysterious island, which seemed to be abandoned at a first glance. 

Soon, the player’s character finds out the island is not abandoned at all: it is taken over by evil cats. All of his friends were captured by them and are now forced to perform theater performances to the amusement of cats. The main aim is to free himself and 300 fellow prisoners from the capture and escape the cat island.

Gameplay and game modes

The game is simple to play as the protagonist mainly runs, jumps and punches. There are over 450 levels including arena, single player and multiplayer modes. Each level has various battle blocks, that can collapse, have sticky walls, deadly spikes or volcanic rocks. Some of them also consist of dangers like water, or various creatures. The main gameplay takes place in Adventure mode that can be either played alone or in co-op.  There is an option to face challenges in normal mode that has checkpoints allowing to save the game or in so-called insane mode, where if your protagonist dies, you start from the beginning of the level, as there are no checkpoints. 

The online mode is for maximum of 2 players and allows co-op in facing challenges and obstacles. To go up in levels, the player needs to collect gems. Gems also unlock new weapons. Collected balls of yarn can be later used as bribe for cats or also to unlock new weapons. If the player manages to get all gems and balls in a given time spam, he receives A++ in the level plus two extra gems. There is also a Boss level available that has time limit.
