Explore Nanoha Town, in the idyllic Japanese countryside, from a cat’s perspective during the cherry blossom season.
Rural Cat Trails is a nostalgic action adventure game where you can enjoy carefree exploration.
Nestled within the scenery is the home of an elderly couple. Play as their cherished cat and make your way to Sakurana Shrine, a place filled with precious memories of your late Grandpa.
■ Explore with Cat Agility
Tight gaps and high buildings are perfect paths for a cat. Explore as an adorable 2D pixel art cat through a beautiful 3D countryside.
- Poke at curious objects with a Paw Swat
- Dig up suspicious ground to find treasures
- Scale heights with a Wall Jump
- Smash through obstacles with a Wiggle Butt Dash!
Use these unique cat actions to open new paths and reach Sakurana Shrine atop the steep cliff.
■ Cat Cans are the Key to Exploration
Keep an eye out for Cat Cans scattered all over town. Collecting them boosts your stamina, letting you chain Wall Jumps and dash further. Spot them by the roadside, dig them up, or buy them at the shop. Scour every corner to expand your world!
■ The Townsfolk’s Favors and a Gentle World
Meet the various residents of this countryside town. Help them with their small Favors, and you might get something nice in return.
