How to play Bread Kittens for iOS, part 2: FAQ and Beginner’s Guide

As previously discussed in part 1 of the Bread Kittens beginner’s guide, that little meter at the bottom of the screen – the one that shows up when you battle – determines how many stars you will get for a particular stage. It also determines how fast the super attack meter will charge, though. That’s the five-block meter that increases every time that you pull off an attack. Once it gets to all five blocks, a new button will appear below the charge bar, which will unleash a super attack when you hit it (and will have no effect upon your star rating). This attack does more damage than any other one, besides a critical hit.

Oh, and when the opponent cat’s hit points get low, you can throw bread at it. To do this, tap the bread icon under the enemy cat’s status bar, and you’ll see a percentage of a chance that you’ll catch the cat. The more rare the cat the lower the percentage, and the lower their hit points, the higher the percentage. You won’t be able to try to “bread” a cat with a higher level than any of your cats, though, so you’ll just have to level grind if you want to catch a stronger cat.

The last level, unlike the rest of the levels in the particular stage, will contain a boss cat the first time you play it. This cat will be too angry to catch when you first fight it, but you’ll be able to bread and catch it if you play again. Usually, these are your uncommon and rare cats, and as you get further into the game the cats get more and more rare.

If your cat is running low on energy in the middle of the fight, you can use cat food to restore its energy. Simply tap on the icon that looks like a bowl of cat food, and your cat will have all of its energy restored. If you are not fighting, then your cats’ hit points will be restored automatically over time, and it usually takes a short time to do so. Tap on the kitten dojo to see how much longer it takes.
