About ZpellCatz
Stranded on a cursed island, near death, you fight your way through dungeons full of loot to develop your cat hero's magical abilities. ZpellCatz is an action RPG with a dark campaign, exciting boss fights, hundreds of epic items and - of course - cats.
Magic Combat Only
No swords, no daggers, no bows. Every hero and every enemy is a spell caster type. Ready for something new?
Class and Path
Combine a hero class with a path to create a cat hero that suits your play style. Do you like being in the middle of the action as a tank? Choose an Archdruid. Do you prefer using area of effect spells to defeat enemies from a distance? Dark Mage might be right up your alley.
Dungeons Full of Loot
Fight your way through procedurally generated dungeons and collect hundreds of items. There are normal, special and rare quality items with randomized affixes and over 150 different epic items waiting to be found.
Dark Campaign
Play through a dark campaign as your follow the main story line. Want to take the time to finish optional quests? The villagers are generous with their worthwhile quest rewards.
The Intermediate Realm
Campaign finished, what now? The Intermediate Realm is a place full of challenge, rewards and secrets. Enjoy dozens of hours of late game dungeon grind with more and more loot.
Cat and the Bat
Select a bat Familiar to accompany your cat hero on their adventures. Plug in a gamepad for local multiplayer or have the Familiar be CPU controlled if you prefer to play alone.
Clear Aesthetics
The minimalist art style helps to understand what is going on in combat. You won't lose track, even when things get heated and dozens of magical orbs fly across the screen.
Up for a Challenge?
For those of us looking for a challenge, ZpellCatz offers a variety of options. When creating your cat hero you can choose the 'Challenging' difficulty and / or pick one of the perma-death modes 'Hardcore' or 'Cat-core' (7 lives). Your hero has the strongest items possible and you don't know what else to do? There are Uber Bosses waiting for you in the Intermediate Realm... Good luck!

So far liking it, smooth feeling real time action gameplay, RNG generated dungeons, talent trees and multiple heroes. It has a very OG Zelda feel to it, as in down looking frames you pass through.4 found this helpful
ZpellCatz released about a week ago. Once you get past the tutorial dungeon it escalates and opens up at a fairly rapid pace. It's a simple top-down looter shooter with proc-gen dungeons but the constant dopamine hits is surprisingly addictive. ZpellCatz is a fun dungeon crawling looter-shooter. The graphics are cute and child-friendly although the game itself is surprisingly generic. But executed well - combat is fun, plenty of variety.

Boring upgrades, has the same sin you see in a lot of games from this genre where each level up and gear upgrade is like.. +1% damage, +2% defense, etc. Combine that with enemies having a ton of health and you have a boring grindfest. The exploration is cool and I like the attack abilities. The bats for co-op are very cool and I appreciate that they have different 'classes' and talent trees of their own - girlfriend loved being the bat. Maybe I'd have preferred a different class. Overall, the cons were too much.2 found this helpful
Fun indie dungeon crawling game, with a lot of different build options!2 found this helpful
Recommend for the local co-op. It can be hard to find games that me and my wife can play together.1 found this helpful
ZpellCatz is the epitome of simple but deep. Combat isn't super complicated, you have a basic attack and two abilities based on the two skill trees you choose at character creation. But how you use these abilities and build them as you level up and get more gear is really satisfying. The style is adorable and minimalist. ZpellCatz can be a bit grindy, especially if you play on challenging (which I do). You have to get stronger for the next encounter. I don't think that's as much of an issue on the normal mode, but I can't speak to that. The dungeons aren't static, the layout changes each time you enter them. It keeps things fresh and makes grinding them a lot nicer. You can customize your cat a bit in appearance. Although gearing them up with gems, unique gear, and even a pet bat of your choice is where the game shines. I recommend it on sale, though full price isn't a terrible ask with the amount of content available. If you don't like the art style it might be a harder sell without a sale price, though.1 found this helpful
