Overview

About this game

Wander through Nanoha Town, a quiet corner of the Japanese countryside, as a beloved house cat on a mission. It's cherry blossom season, and perched atop a steep cliff above the town is Sakurana Shrine, a place close to the heart of your late Grandpa.

Rural Cat Trails is a laid-back action-adventure game about exploration, curiosity, and the unhurried joy of being a cat.

■ Explore with Cat Agility

Cats don't need roads. Squeeze through tight gaps, scramble up walls, and take routes no human ever could, as an adorable 2D pixel art cat moving through a beautifully rendered 3D countryside.

  • Paw Swat: bat at anything that looks interesting

  • Dig: unearth hidden treasures buried beneath suspicious patches of ground

  • Wall Jump: scale walls and reach dizzying heights

  • Wiggle Butt Dash: charge through obstacles with full feline commitment

Use these abilities to open new paths, uncover secrets, and claw your way up to Sakurana Shrine.

■ Cat Food is the Key to Exploration

Cat food is stashed all over town, tucked by the roadside, buried underground, or sold at the local shop. Eating well builds your stamina, letting you chain Wall Jumps and dash further. Sniff out every last tin to unlock more of the world.

■ Favors, Familiar Faces, and a Town Worth Exploring

The residents of Nanoha Town have their own small needs, and helping them out usually comes with a reward. Beyond the townsfolk, the town itself is worth lingering in. Cherry petals drift on the breeze, overgrown bus stops and quiet little parks give the place a feeling of somewhere you've been before.

It's a gentle, nostalgic vision of rural Japan. Take your time, sniff around, and enjoy the ride.
