Kumanchu Royale (クマんちゅロワイアル Kumanchu Rowaiaru), also known by the unofficial name of Battle Bears, was a sequel to the original mobile phone version of Nyanko Daisensou. Developed by PONOS and only available on older generations of mobile phones, the game was discontinued on January 6th, 2015.

Overview[]

Kumanchu Royale was a tower defense game about a variety of bears advancing through the world and defeating enemies. The game played exactly the same as its prequel, Ganso!! Nyanko Daisensou.

Some enemies from Ganso!! Nyanko Daisensou reappeared in this game alongside new, never-before-seen enemies.

Characters[]

Bear Units[]

There were 9 different bears in Kumanchu Royale, each based on a different Normal Cat. The only special abilities in the game were Kamikaze and "Strong against Red Enemies".

Enemy Units[]

There were 21 Enemy Units in Kumanchu Royale. Like in the original mobile phone version, there were only 2 enemy types: Traitless and Red. Some of these enemies were brought straight from The Battle Cats, while others were exclusive to this game; three such enemies, Mooth, Sleipnir and Mr. Mer, were reimported to The Battle Cats at later dates. Notably, another three enemies (Arabian Nyaight, Fighting Cow and Eminent Inca) were cats much akin to the ones in The Battle Cats.

Trivia[]

Most of the enemy bases from this game were reused for the English version of Empire of Cats. The only known exception is the Moon stage: in BCEN, it uses an English-localized version of Iriomote Island's base (a tree) from BCJP, leaving the original Moon base unused. In The Battle Cats POP!, however, the Moon stage uses a similar but shorter version of the one from Kumanchu Royale.

The Moon's base in The Battle Cats POP!
- There is also Cambodia's base, which was shown to have a different color in the Kumanchu Royale title screen.
Kuma is the Japanese word for bear.
The Kamikaze ability used by Cow Cat's counterpart would not return until Battle Cats version 6.7 in November 2017.
Most of the new enemies were based on different cultures or myths.
Ursamajor's Japanese name, Kumanchū, is a possible throwback to this game.
It is heavily implied that the Mooth in The Battle Cats is the son of the Mooth from Kumanchu Royale. The Battle Cats Mooth's Japanese description says he was hoping to become a beautiful butterfly in the future and was once a delinquent, while the Kumanchu Royale Mooth's description says he hopes his child becomes a beautiful butterfly in the future without becoming a delinquent, instead of living the same life as its father.
