Cats vs Dragons: Summoning and Upgrading - Strategy Guide -

This section will cover a strategy that you will use against all stages in the game. Learn how or when to summon allies, and how to upgrade your Cat Bowl for better performance. Note: Only equip Royal Pages, no need to equip others.

Step #1
   - Wait for the enemies to reach the 2nd or 1st floor.
   - Always accumulate at least 20 Cat Food first, before calling your allies, unless you really need to stop enemies near your Enchanted Cat's Eye or Crystal.

Step #2-A
   - Summon Royal Pages until you can't summon anymore (20 Cat Food can summon 5 Royal Pages, always summon by groups), then STOP to let your Cat Bowl accumulate at least 20 Cat Food again.
   - Repeat until the 1st and 2nd floors are clear with enemies.

Step #2-B (conditional)
   - If there are "Fast Moving" enemies going straight to your Enchanted Cat's Eye or Crystal, just summon 2, or 3 Royal Pages once they reach the Enchanted Cat's Eye. Once clear, go to Step #2-A above.
Step #3
   - While the 1st and 2nd floors are clear, this is your chance to accumulate 30 Cat Food to upgrade your Food Bowl to Lv.2. Tap on the "Cat Food - Can" once you reach 30 Cat Food, to upgrade it (see sample pic above). Upgraded Cat Bowl will generate more Cat Food per second.
   - Repeat Step #2-A above, until the 1st and 2nd floors are clear with enemies.

Step #4
   - Again, while the 1st and 2nd floors are clear, accumulate 50 Cat Food to upgrade your Food Bowl to Lv.3! Repeat Step #2-A above, until the 1st and 2nd floors are clear with enemies.

Step #5
   - While the 1st and 2nd floors are clear, accumulate 75 Cat Food to upgrade your Food Bowl to Lv.4!
   - Next, just SPAM an army of Royal Pages! NYAHAHAHAHA! XD

Cats vs Dragons: Tips and Quick Walkthrough Guide -

Tips to Remember
   - Pick up all Coins, Cat Food, and Chests, but be careful, do not let your Hero die.
   - Avoid getting hits, just do long ranged attacks, especially at higher stages.
   - Conserve your Moon Stones and Feral Scrolls for later use.

   - This section will only cover notable stages and recommended skills to equip and use, for other stages unmentioned below, just do the usual strategy above. Refer to the Skill Building Guide above to know which skills of upgrade to get next.

Stages 1, 2, and 3
   - Tutorial
   - Just equip and use Royal Page as your only ally, no need to equip the others.

Stage 4
   - Equip and start using these skills:
   - Ray of Light: Simply use to damage enemies.
   - Light's Blessing: Move near your damaged allies to heal them, including your Hero.

Stage 10
   - Equip and start using these skills:
   - Fire Pillar: Move below your enemies then cast this skill to damage all enemies above you. Burning enemies will take more damage over time.
   - Light's Blessing: Move near your damaged allies to heal them, including your Hero.

Stage 15
   - Equip and start using these skills:
   - Clowder Call: Summon 3 random allies that will join your army. Most of them will be long ranged attackers, so it is best to place your Hero at the back of your front-liners before calling them, this is to avoid putting them at the front-lines.
   - Light's Blessing: Move near your damaged allies to heal them, including your Hero.

Stage 20
   - Stage Tip: Before the Boss Dragon joins the battle, just stay at the sides of your screen, then move away from his floor to avoid getting killed by those falling black bombs.

Stage 22
   - Equip and start using these skills:
   - Earth's Call: Use it right before the clash to slow down your enemies, and help your allies hit more!
   - Light's Blessing: Move near your damaged allies to heal them, including your Hero.

Stage 29
   - Equip and start using these skills:
   - Earth's Call: Use it right before the clash to slow down your enemies, and help your allies hit more!
   - Gust of Wind: Use it mainly to delay your enemies, and give more time for your Cat Bowl to accumulate more Cat Food.

Side Note:
   - Note: From here on, feel free to use your Favored Feline Potions (increased drop rates) or Ailur (auto pick-up items) to earn more Coins and items. Do not buy them, just use what you have.
Stage 35
   - Equip and start using these skills:
   - Gust of Wind: Use it mainly to delay your enemies, and give more time for your Magma Rock to cool-down (use it wisely!). I also use this skill to knock back enemies, clearing a way to get the items in-front of them ^^.
   - Magma Rock: Simply the best skill in the game because of it's insane damage, cast whenever it's ready. Cast then quickly follow it to loot all items along the way, this is a nice way to earn easy Coins.

   - Stage Tip: Reach Cat Bowl Lv 4 asap to easily beat this stage. I recommend getting a Lv 2 Enchanted Cat's Eye here, just in-case other gamers will have trouble with that swinging dragon hitting the Enchanted Cat's Eye. You'll need it at higher stages anyway, so it's ok to upgrade it now.

Stage 40
   - This is where a lot of players get stuck, but if you are following this guide from the start, you'll be fine. ^^
   - Stage Tip: Just follow the usual strategy and reach Cat Bowl Lv 4 to spam your Royal Pages. Avoid floors with "rolling blades" and use your Magma Rock to finish the boss dragon here.

Stage 42
   - Stage Tip: From here on, once the Blue Dragon joins the battle, he will summon a "Frozen Cat" to leech out some Cat Food from your Cat Bowl, it won't be a problem if you were doing the usual strategy though (reach Lv 3 or 4 Cat Bowl before they appear).
   - Continue and release the "Frozen Cat" using your Royal Pages or Magma Rock. Once destroyed, the Blue Dragon will attack on that same floor, either move away from that floor, or just move your Hero at the back of the blue dragon to avoid his attack.

Stage 49
   - Stage Tip: The easiest way is to use a Feral Scroll to reduce the cool-down of your Skills. Do not buy Scrolls, just use what you have. From here on, you will need to use your free Feral Scrolls to complete certain stages below, hope you saved them from the start.

Farming Feral Scrolls and Coins:
   - In case you don't have enough Feral Scrolls to use for the upcoming battles below, here's a tip. Enter the next battle, defend and unleash 1 Magam Rock, loot the Coins then let your Hero die, repeat.
   - Go and purchase a Feral Scroll (2,000 Coins each).
Stage 51
   - Stage Tip: If you are having trouble, just use one of your free Feral Scrolls.

Stage 54
   - Stage Tip: I recommend using a Feral Scroll here, it's similar with Stage 49.

Stage 56
   - Stage Tip: If you are having trouble, just use one of your free Feral Scrolls.
   - Stage Tip: If you have a Lv 8 Magma Rock, Feral Scroll is not needed though.

Stage 57
   - Stage Tip: If you are having trouble, use one of your Feral Scrolls.

Stage 58 and 59
   - Stage Tip: I recommend using Feral Scrolls here. Avoid floors with "rolling blades", and use your Magma Rock to finish the boss dragon/s here.

Stage 60
   - This is it, the final stage of the game!
   - Stage Tip:  I recommend using a Feral Scroll here.
   - Quickly reach Lv 4 Cat Bowl, if you are having trouble, use extra Pet Food early on to boost your Cat Bowl to Lv 2. Start spamming Royal Panes once you reach Cat Bowl Lv 4.
   - The boss dragon here can do massive damages on all floors, but you can avoid them by moving your Hero on the 1st floor - left side area. Take cover and cast 2 Magma Rocks to defeat the Dragon King!.
   - Good Luck! ^^
