Nekos' War

🐱 Defend the Cottage!

 is a Real-Time Tactical Tower Defense game that replaces static towers with mobile, commandable Cat Operators.

Manage your Coffee reserves, deploy your squad, and micro-manage their tactical stances to survive the rodent invasion.

⚔️ The 4-Stance Tactical System

Unlike traditional TD games, your units aren't statues. You have full control over their behavior. Click on any operator to instantly switch their Tactical State:

• 🏃 Follow (Chase): The Operator actively pursues detected enemies. Perfect for cleaning up leaks.
• 🛡️ Patrol (Skirmish): The Operator maintains distance, poking enemies from afar. Ideal for kiting heavy units.
• 📍 Assign (Hold): Order the Operator to a specific strategic point. Block choke points or protect high-ground.
• 🏰 Standstill (Siege): The Operator roots in place to gain massive Attack Range. High risk, high reward.

Each Cat Operator has a Preferred Tactic. Matching their state to their playstyle unlocks bonus stats and passive synergies!

☕ Coffee, Cooldowns, and Ultimates

Your primary resource is Coffee, which regenerates over time.

• Deploy & Redeploy: Operators have a respawn cooldown when defeated. Can't wait? Spend extra Coffee for an  Spend Coffee to unleash game-changing skills.
• Strategic Choice: Do you spend Coffee to deploy more units, save a dying cat, or nuke the screen with an Ultimate? The choice is yours.

📈 Dual-Progression: Levels vs. Loot

Defeating rats grants EXP and Coins.

• Level Up: Boost your Cats' raw stats.
• Shop (Roguelike Elements): Spend Coins on random artifacts. Some buff specific units, while others improve your economy.

Build a hyper-carry Cat with tons of items, or spread your wealth to create an balanced army.
