Maneki Cat (Special Cat)

Maneki Cat is a Special Cat that was added in Version 6.1. It was unlockable via the Cat Beacon feature, for those who paid a visit to PONOS' booth at the 5th BitSummit Indie Game Festival with a smartphone that has already cleared the first chapter of Empire of Cats. It was later made obtainable by playing the What's in the Box Event Gacha in Version 11.0, and most recently became available within the 10th Memorial Event Gacha.

Strategy/Usage

Maneki Cat's sole usage is earning extra money when defeating an enemy. The addition of it being included in Thanks for All, a 1-Slot Cat Combo, can increase the money drop of the enemy by 10%, so the Extra Money ability will increase the enemies' money drop to 2.2x rather than just 2x its original. However, due to its short range, weak stats and single target attacks, it won't be viable outside of the early Empire of Cats stages as there are better units that can replace this unit, such as Express Cat.

Trivia

• Maneki Cat was the rarest cat in the game, with only 30 people receiving it from the BitSummit event, before it became obtainable in the What's in the Box Gacha.
• Blue Shinobi, Undead Cat, Maneki Cat, Mr. Ninja and Firecracker Cat are the few units that were exclusive to the Nyanko Daisensou before being added globally via gacha event.
