About Nekokami: Internship - The Prologue Adventure

Thanks to everyone who supported our prologue, the full version of Nekokami - The Human Restoration Project has finally been released!🎉 With your invaluable feedback we have made significant improvement to gameplay and graphics - check it out at our developer page or scroll down to "More from Rocket-in-Bottle"! 🚀(Screenshot from full version.)✨ Nekokami: Internship is a prologue to the full game Nekokami. Created as a prototype in 2023, this free prologue contains 20+ Expeditions and roughly 4 hours of story-rich gameplay. 🐣
In this sneak peek of the full game, you will:
  • 🌏 Create beautiful worlds of natural habitats and human settlements with strategic, or spontaneous, placement of tiles in a unique hand-drawn-like art style.
  • 🌌 Follow the beginning of a whimsical yet heart-warming story of Human-Cat friendship, set millennia later in the future.
  • 💼 Earn your place in Nekokami Co., your employer, by creating worlds that beat expectations. Or just relax. Your bosses are Cats after all.
  • 🔮 Befriend a selection of Kami, spirits of the nature and the universe, and see them bring miracles to your work. They are Cats too. What could go wrong?

🌟 Nekokami Co. is commissioned to manage planets all over the universe. That's a LOT of planets! Environment, biomes and rules differ from Star System to Star System. You will get to visit at least SIX Star Systems during your internship.
🐈 I did mention the Kami*, right? Technically the spirits are the real fellows creating the worlds. As a Planetary Architect, you are basically borrowing their Creative Energy for your own use. You will need to seek their acceptance and approval. Through their friendship, you will potentially learn the secrets of nature and the arcane laws of universe.
*Kami is actually a Japanese word that roughly translates to "spirits and gods".

Fantastic little game. As a Dorfromantik player, this game is a refreshingly new experience, and I found the story very interesting. Will absolutely be purchasing the full game!
Recommended Dec 26, 2025
It took me a while to see that this was a Demo, so considering that, there are flaws here that are fixed in the full game. Its an interesting puzzle game about connecting several tiles, where you manage growth of a region on a map. Interesting presentation with cute and fun lore behind it. In the first levels you don`t really feel you can do wrong plays. But with more progression you start understanding goals and how to balance them all. The game could be harder and evolve the gameplay elements faster, present a higher difficulty setting, and a easier to see HUD, sometimes you can`t really see the right tile because its info is on a white grid that appears against the bright background, and several effects make the grid disappear. And the lack of better sound quality and music was kind of annoying. Other than all that, it was a fun experience with cool gameplay and specially funny characters. It needs small fixes to be actually excellent.

Relaxing yet challenging tile game with a cute storyline.

This is a very calming and cute game, but it also involves creativity and logic.

The different cats in this game is everything! I also love the obstacles that it gives me to make it more challenging.
Recommended May 5, 2025
The game in itself is ok. Its basically a Dorfromantik clone with some interesting added special events and some extra themes to merge together. The downside for me is the story. I feel this would have been a better experience without the story as I lost interest after the 4th lvl. Minus the contiguous clicking sound of the text and the "loading" screens that are not actually needed, you have a pretty decent game here. Just wish the levels weren't so short. I'm guessing there is an endless mode. If not then there should be ^_^
