About Kittens Game
Kittens Game is a text‑based village simulation where you oversee a settlement of kittens. You gather resources, construct buildings, and research technologies to expand the community and eventually reach the moon. The game is designed for long‑term, semi‑idle play, letting you intervene actively or let the simulation run while you attend to other tasks. It offers a sandbox feel with many mechanics to explore at your own pace.
01 / THE GUIDE
Resources
The game tracks over fifty distinct resources that kittens collect and produce. These range from basic materials like wood and iron to more advanced commodities needed for higher‑tier structures.
Resource accumulation drives building construction and technology research. Managing the flow of each resource is essential for steady progress and unlocking new gameplay layers.
- Monitor resource balances regularly to avoid bottlenecks.
- Prioritize upgrades that increase the efficiency of your most limited resources.

Buildings
Buildings provide the infrastructure for resource production, storage, and kitten activities. More than thirty building types become available as you advance.
Each building has specific requirements and contributes to the overall growth of the village, influencing both resource output and kitten welfare.
- Construct a balanced mix of production and storage buildings early on.
- Upgrade existing structures when possible to improve their output.

Technologies
Research unlocks new buildings, resources, and gameplay features. Hundreds of technologies are available, each requiring specific prerequisites.
Advancing through the tech tree gradually reveals deeper mechanics, such as space travel and planetary secrets.
- Plan your research path to align with your current resource needs.
- Keep an eye on technologies that boost multiple aspects of the game.

Jobs, Skills, and Happiness
Kittens can be assigned jobs that affect resource generation and overall efficiency. Their skills develop over time, influencing productivity.
Happiness levels impact how effectively kittens work, so balancing work assignments with leisure is important.
- Assign kittens to jobs that match their strongest skills.
- Maintain a moderate happiness level to keep production steady.

Progress can be saved at any moment, allowing you to pause and resume without loss. Steam Cloud integration backs up your save data.
These features support the game’s long‑term, semi‑idle design, letting you return after extended breaks.
- Save before making major building or research decisions.
- Verify cloud sync after a session if you plan to play on another device.
