i believe that battle cats is the
ultimate tower defense game
it has an abundance of cats and enemies
with various traits and quirks
whether it be through their mechanics or
their quirky descriptions that no other
game can match
with a beautiful art style and
background music that fits the vibe of
the game perfectly
what i love about this game is how
simple it is the concept is just sending
out cats to destroy the enemy tower
but advancing in a straight line unlike
most other tower defense games
there is so much strategy and thought in
it for something so simple
the further you advance on the game the
more all the simple mechanics start to
stand out
wave attacks long distance weaken slow
and other different effects all play a
major deciding factor on levels
there is so much content packed into
this one simple game
so in order to truly appreciate this
masterpiece i decided to restart
and experience it again for myself
[Music]
a more historically accurate way to
describe battle cats is sending out cats
to brutally murder their enemies
while sacrificing hundreds of thousands
of their own kind in order to take over
the world
but other than that it's more or less
how i described it before
so at the start of battlecast you open
up the app and wait around 15 minutes
while the game loads
then instead of reading the terms of
service you sign your soul to the devil
it says in the fine print and then you
finally begin your journey
after that you complete a tutorial and
unlock a slightly taller cat it's like
the first cat but more expensive and
longer
great die philippines die thailand
die china on the second thought i should
probably cut this out of the video
in many religions god is seen to be as
the ultimate being
whether it be greek gods like zeus or
egyptian gods like ra
one thing is for certain god is
all-powerful
but in battle cats you can buy god for
only 2 000 xp
after beating japan and some other
countries i unlocked the rare cat
capsule
along with some other stuff nobody cares
about so i prayed to cat god with all my
might
and he answered me by giving me the
lowest rarity cat
i guess there's a reason why he's only 2
000 xp to unlock
oh cool i unlocked the enemy guide let's
see what's inside here
doge a loving shiba and battle cat's
arrival
trying to enter college this year very
thoughtful and sends
birthday gifts to cat every year this
doge is sending us gifts
every year and we're just out here
slaughtering him by the hundreds
in cold-blooded murder a couple more
levels later and i arrived at greece
where many take vacations and have a
wonderful experience
time to destroy it beating grease gives
you beans cat
i figured i needed an anti-red unit
against enemies in the future
so i decided to upgrade him to level 10.
oh okay
yeah you know what why don't we try
upgrading something else like gross cat
yeah so this game may look like it's kid
friendly with these cute graphics and
such
but don't let that fool you also sexy
legs cats is a man
doesn't really matter but i would just
like to point that out after beating
countless more levels
i finally reached the final stage of
chapter one
the moon but before i could start the
level
i would need some upgrades and level 10
level 10 level 10
but upgrades could prepare us for only
so much it's time to face
the first main boss
okay okay stop this guy isn't that scary
he moves and attacks as fast as a slug
[Music]
and with that anticlimactic ending i had
finally reached the end of battle cats
it was a fun journey to be sure but all
good things must end eventually i would
miss this game and everything inside it
the cat base my cats and even my enemies
wait a minute there's another chapter
hold on this is just the same chapter as
before
how much chapters are there empire of
cats has a total of
three chapters i have to do the same
exact thing
two more times the one difference
between the three chapters
are that the enemies get slightly harder
and your cats become more expensive
other than that it's the same exact
thing as chapter one
i would like to just take a second here
to admire how creative
ponos is in making these chapters
obviously i didn't feel like completing
the next two chapters
instead i decided to try out some event
stages
so i hopped into one random stage and
this happened
oh god the cyclone looks so intimidating
wait what this dog just destroyed me not
the big
giant floating eye but the little dog
yeah i'm not doing any event stages
anytime soon
so i decided to check out a zombie
outbreak instead
i died again wait what these guys can go
underground how is that fair
they get revived too what is a sorcery
don't you love it when you lose a level
and the game tells you if you upgrade
your cats
you can win easier well guys i decided
to go play chapter 2
but not because other levels are hard or
anything but i just want to experience
chapter 1 again but just harder you know
i just
love doing the same thing over and over
and over and over again and so i did
just that i did the same levels until i
had finally reached the end of chapter 2
moon where something remotely
interestingly happened
the difficulty of the levels have ramped
up quite a bit during the last few
fights before this
so this could prove to be quite a
challenge so this boss is so slow that
should be pretty easy
kinda like the first chapter all he
really does is shake a cup at me
so not really a difficult yikes
[Music]
okay so he may have won the battle but
not the war
i bought a rich cat which maxes out my
wallet capacity at the start
which makes sending out cats much faster
with this i should be able to beat
chapter 2.
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
beating chapter 2 was surprisingly
pretty easy granted i did escape from
losing by a scratch
but those are unnecessary details i
unlocked valkyrie cat
pretty cool but more importantly i could
upgrade my cats to level 20 which before
i could only get to level 10
but chapter 2 was not the end getting
valkyrie is cool and all but do you know
what's even cooler
that's right bahama cat this guy is one
of the best cats in the game
and i wasn't going to give up just yet
the only problem is i would have to beat
a stage that many players had quit
and stopped the game at chapter 3 moon
luckily with valkyrie cat and my cats
being upgraded with a level cap raised
i could sweep most of the levels before
chapter 3 moon
it took a while but i had finally
arrived to the devil's doorstep
chapter three moon here we go
okay a kangaroo and a seal i don't think
we can beat this right now
yeah at this point i knew i wasn't
dealing with any ordinary level i mean
sure
the other stages i beat before this were
hard but not at this level of difficulty
but to be honest i didn't upgrade all my
cats to the fullest
they were all still at level 15 time for
another upgrading montage
now that all my cats were level 20 i
couldn't see how i would lose
so i went into the stage again this time
i beat the start
and made it to the boss of the stage bun
bun
a ridiculous name for a boss so hard to
beat but i didn't care at this point
all i wanted to do was beat this boss in
any way i could
i fought with all my strength but it
wasn't enough
deep down i knew that if i played this
stage a million times again
i will never never be able to achieve
victory
so was this the end all i played for
to end an utter defeat
no i didn't want to resort to this but i
guess it's time
you see in battle cats there are
something called treasures
when you beat a level there is a small
chance of you getting either
bronze silver or gold treasure and when
you get a set of these
you unlock different things that vastly
improve your cats
like decreasing research speed and
increasing hp
but there's a reason why i didn't want
to resort to this it
is ridiculously grindy
but it had to be done i spent the next
few days waiting for treasure festivals
to happen
which boosts your chances of getting a
treasure the event lasts one hour a day
so during that time i would get on and
start grinding to maximize my potential
treasures
and just like that i had finally
completed all the chapter 1 treasures
maxing them all out to superior but
still that wouldn't be
enough if i wanted to win i would need
to complete chapter 2.
again i spent a couple of days waiting
for treasure festivals
until i had finally completed all the
chapter 2 treasures
with all of chapter two done it probably
would have been enough to beat bum bun
but since i wanted to make sure i could
absolutely win i decided to complete
chapter three as well
a few more days later and i had finally
assembled a full set of treasures
each level had a superior treasure
except for one level in chapter three
the moon but before i could set the
level however
i had one more trick up my sleeve every
day in battle cats
you can log in and the game grants you a
normal cat ticket
and over time that adds up so i had
about 30 days worth of cat tickets all
saved up
ready to be used but what are they used
for
if you don't know cat tickets can
upgrade your cats or your cat upgrades
while exceeding
the level cap of your cats and i had
lots of them
with all of my cat tickets used i was
finally ready to fight the final boss
so i played the level slapped some music
on it and retired peacefully
[Music]
so
[Music]
in the end i realized the true value of
battle cats
it wasn't here to take over the world or
get stronger and better cats
nor was it here to destroy entire states
and even planets
the real reward in the end was a journey
the fond memories
the friends we made along the way and
most of all
the experience
[Music]
