Instruction Manual

The Story So Far...

Deep in the heart of a cozy living room lives a kind man named Danny who absolutely adores cats. One day, after a bulk delivery of paper towels left him with mountains of cardboard boxes, Danny had an idea: build a magical cardboard kingdom for his feline companions. The cats—architectural critics in their own right—quickly took to judging his creations with clipboard in paw. Now it's your turn to join Danny and build castles fit for cat royalty!

🏰 How to Play Cardboard Castle 🐱

🎯 Objective:

Build cardboard castles that cats will love to explore! Each cat has different preferences and will judge your castle accordingly.

Which cat comes to judge you depends on whichever dat feels like it, so you're lucky to have the cat even pay attention to you, OK?.

🔨 Building:

• Drag panels from the menu to the grid to build your castle.
• Green lines show openings—connect them to form clear, continuous paths between boxes.
• Each panel type can only be used 3 times per level.
• Panels must connect to existing structures or the ground.
• Use door panels (with front openings) at ground level for cats to enter.

🐱 Cat Types:

• 😸 Whiskers: A well-balanced cat who loves variety in the build.
• 😻 Sky: An “Up cat” who prefers high places and hammocks.
• 😼 Shadow: A pouncer who loves low, sneaky perspectives and ground-level tunnels.

⭐ Scoring:

• The more boxes, toys, and ameneties a cat can reach, the more they'll like your castle!
• Unique amenities (like windows, hammocks, toys) definitely increase points. But cats like variety, too.
• Place places to peer out at the world in the right place for the right cat and you'll get even more points.
• Use points to unlock new panel types and expand your building space.
• Use and expand random sticker packs to decorate your castle!

🎮 Controls:

• Click or drag panels to place them on the building grid.
• Rotate or flip panels using the buttons—or double-click to rotate quickly.
• Switch to sticker mode to decorate your castle, just pick a sticker and tap to apply as many times as you want.
• Press “Call the Cats!” when your masterpiece is ready for judgment!
• Every level you get a continue code that will let you jump back to building with the same grid size and panels available. Continue codes do not keep points!
