"You've read the books. You know the cats. But one story remains untold — YOURS."

A fanmade game based on the Warrior Cats series made by Falcon_Star. It can be downloaded here. In it, you can play as a cat of ThunderClan, WindClan, RiverClan or ShadowClan (no SkyClan). You also have the potential to become a rogue or a kittypet.

The game was later retooled into an original Spiritual Adaptation named Cattails.


This Game Provides Examples Of:

  • Artificial Stupidity: If an enemy cat tries to attack you, it will try to go through obstacles rather than around them (to reach you).
  • Awesome, but Impractical: Battle missions can easily cost you more reputation to heal from than you got from the battle in the first place. Ironically, they're most practical if you become a medicine cat assistant - then you can heal yourself.
  • Back from the Dead: Most warriors who die will randomly reincarnate.
  • Battle in the Rain: These can occur.
  • Cool Old Guy: George
  • Dogs Are Dumb: The only way to kill a dog is to lure it on the road, and it will let itself die. (CPU cats are smart enough to run.)
  • Easily Forgiven: While it costs some reputation just to be allowed to become a kittypet in the first place, if you do so, then return to your clan, nothing will have changed and you'll be accepted back in as if nothing had happened.
  • Easter Egg: Plenty. Some include having to rescue a kit from your Clan in the winter and the name you receive if you attempt to rename your character 'Falconstar'.
  • Fetch Quest: If you speak to your Clan's medicine cat or a queen, they'll ask you to find a specific herb or item for the kits to play with.
  • Flip-Screen Scrolling
  • Guilt-Based Gaming: The game really tries to make you feel like a bastard if you become a kittypet, then want to run back to the clans.
    • Let's not forget what happens to Fuzzy when you become a kittypet and allow Thrash into the closet.
  • Instant Gravestone: Killing a cat will make a tombstone instantly appear in its place.
  • Karma Meter: Also serves as currency.
  • Not Allowed to Grow Up: The kits in the nursery will never grow up. This used to apply to your apprentice and your own kit, but now they, too, will become warriors.
  • One-Hit Kill: Walking into another clan's camp will instantly kill you no matter how much health you have.
  • Purely Aesthetic Gender: Your character only matters when you choose a mate, since you can only mate with cats of the opposite sex. Otherwise, it has no gameplay effect.
  • Roaming Enemy: There are plenty of these, although some aren't enemies, like the very rare Ember.
  • Rule of Cool: Unlockable pelt colors such as Tiger
  • Start My Own: If you play as a rogue you have the option of starting your own Clan, though it's not the same as a real clan (no medicine cat, for one thing).
  • Thou Shalt Not Kill: Averted. While it's mentioned that Killing Bite is "considered dishonorable by most cats," there are no in-game consequences for killing other cats, whether through the Killing Bite or through murdering a downed enemy.
  • Video Game Cruelty Potential: After you knock out a cat and it's helpless and harmless, you have the option to kill it by continuing to damage it.
  • Wide-Open Sandbox: Apart from the tutorials, there's no set objective. You can explore, hunt, battle, collect herbs for the medicine cat, become a rogue or kittypet, find a mate, etc.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: In Thunderclan on your first playthrough, you meet Treekit and Fiercekit. The two are never heard from again after you grow up and are never mentioned by anyone. It's implied that Fiercekit has joined BloodClan under the name Fierce, while Treekit's whereabouts have become something of a meme on the game forums.
