About Electric Cats: Idle Tycoon
Humans are gone. The cats remain — and they've decided the lightning Zeus hoards belongs to them. Electric Cats is an idle power-empire game. It starts with a single cat making biscuits for less than a watt a second. It ends with your paws on the energy budget of a galaxy. BUILD THE GRID Kneaders, yarn dynamos, scratching-post turbines, sunbeam napperies. Every generator you buy is a real line on a real grid — and every one of them costs upkeep, so overbuilding a bad plant will curtail it. POWER ISN'T MONEY Generation is a live flow, not a bank. Split it across three rails on the Dispatch Board: sell it for Credits at a floating market price, pour it into your Wonder, or keep the city's lights on. Flood the market and the price sags. Starve the grid and you brown out. Balance is the game. THE MARKET HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN Demand rises and falls whether you're watching or not, and it moves what every Watt is worth. Store power in the battery while it's cheap and sell it back when it isn't — close a trade at a profit and the whole grid surges. Set standing orders and the cats trade at your prices. No timers, no stakes — just your read on the chart. RAISE A WONDER Each era is gated by one signature megaproject — the Temple of Zeus, the Nine Roads, the Great Sunbed. They're built stage by stage from routed power, gated by research, and they cost you: finishing a stage dismantles your weakest plants to feed the next one. CLIMB THE KARDASHEV SCALE Athens. The colonies. The whole world. Orbit. The sun. A black hole. The galaxy. Spacetime itself. Ascend and you trade your buildout for permanent multipliers, then do it all again, faster — and each age has its own sky, its own architecture, and its own cats. Then see where you rank on the Game Center leaderboards. MIND THE PHYSICS Power has to be carried, not just made. Transformers and conductors set what your grid can deliver; line losses eat the rest. Outgrow your transmission cap and your generators are just expensive scenery. WHILE YOU'RE AWAY The cats keep the grid running. Come back to a full tally of what they earned — and the option to double it. NO NONSENSE No timers blocking your progress. No account, no sign-up, no data collection — your save lives on your device, and you can export it whenever you like. Rewarded videos are optional, and if one won't load, you get the bonus anyway. Game Center is optional; the game is fully playable without signing in. Steal the lightning. Light the world.
