Whether battling solo or organizing epic four-team multiplayer mayhem, every challenge and dimension brings players closer to stopping the professor’s path of destruction.
Let’s Go Mightycat! by PONOS Corporation
An everyday feline becomes an unlikely galactic hero when an all-powerful being transforms it into the universe’s most adorable conqueror. In this spinoff of hit tower defense game The Battle Cats, players can customize their heroic cat with stylish capes, rescue interstellar friends, and launch Mightycat through colorful planetary stages. With a variety of challenging puzzle stages, every tap brings players closer to the ultimate goal: bringing every planet in the cosmos under the Cat Empire’s adorable yet mighty paw.
