Understanding the Gameplay Mechanics

Talking about gameplay mechanics, there’s not much to say in respect to Cat Hero: Idle RPG. The game plays quite straight-forwardly, almost mind numbingly, making it easy for a casual gamer to get into. The core gameplay loop revolves around merging releasing fishes, merging them, and obtaining Fish coins for each new fish you discover. All of this activity is done on the bottom side of the UI. In the top side, you can see your Cat hero fighting different enemies, sometimes they are hordes of underlying minions, or at other times, they are full-fledged bosses. You can directly help your Cat hero to win fights by tapping on the enemy and shooting thunder zaps at them to inflict damage. Nonetheless, the majority of the damage will be carried out by your cat hero at all times.
