Before we delve into the details, here’s a quick refresher on the game for those of you who have never sampled its feline delights.
Released all the way back in 2014, The Battle Cats first appeared in Japan under the name Nyanko Daisensou. It sees you collecting different types of cats and deploying them into a 2D, monochrome battleground to defend your base.
These cats come in all shapes and sizes, and they all have different abilities, too, making for a hilarious spectacle and a huge number of tactical options.
The Battle Cats has been downloaded more than 65 million times, and it’s sitting on an average user review score of 4.5 from well over 400,000 reviews on Android alone. It comes highly recommended, in other words.
And this is the perfect time to start playing. Between 11am on January 17th until 10:59am on February 14th you’ll be able to claim a ton of free Cat Food to spend on unlocking new heroes and acquiring useful battle items. All you need to do is log in every day.
Plus, there’s more free Cat Food – another 777, to be precise – on offer with a free spin on the Wildcat Slots.
And that’s not all. Every day during the Lunar New Year event you’ll be able to clear a custom stage for an additional reward of 20 Cat Food, and you’ll be able to add even more of this delicious foodstuff to your reserves by taking part in a special contest on the The Battle Cats Facebook page.
All this Cat Food will go extra far, too, since your first 11-Capsule Draw at the Rare Cat Capsule Machine will be available at half the usual Cat Food cost. This will allow you to collect the most powerful Cat heroes at a bargain price.
You can download The Battle Cats for free right now on iOS and Android.
