Catizens Adds Swamps and Acolyte Profession

HeroCraft PC and indie developer Bad Optics Games have added Swamps and the Acolyte professions to their Early Access cat colony sim, Catizens. The Swamps is the new Level 4 area.

Heal the cat residents and provide buffs with the new Acolyte profession in Catizens. Note that not all the Acolyte’s talents have been implemented such as Shackles and Deadly Plague, both of which will be added in a future update.

A new quest for the Rat King is available for those who have completed the peace negotiations with the rats in previous levels. The Rat King will be a neutral character and will talk to the player. Players may need to visit the previous levels and create a fresh save for the game to register the completion of the associated quests.

Once a player can talk to the Rat King, they can learn how to create Pumpkin Lanterns which can be used to decorate the settlement. In a future update, Pumpkin Lanterns will also protect residents from the undead.

While not fully implemented, players can begin the Craft Magical Armor quest. Currently the quest ends when a player creates a golden sword or a golden bow. Players can now craft the Leather Boots accessory. Armor and accessory tooltips will now show the stat improvements that they provide.
