About the Game

Tails of the North is a third person story-focused adventure and exploration game. You're a young cat, a survivor from a cat colony ravaged by unstable forces of nature, and you've been given a task to find out what happened.

After escaping your shattered home, you found yourself following a pair of ravens who carry the symbol of Hovialis on their feathers. Offering your help, you begin to uncover the truth to why the natural order is out of balance.

Create your cat!

Choose from plenty of fur colors, eye colors, and ear and tail shapes to give your cat an unique look, and follow the adventure of a main character [b]you[/b] want to see!

Explore the world!

Walk around the beautiful, northern landscape, scale the tall mountainside, or climb up an ancient tree to see everything - the choice is yours!

Meet quirky characters!

Along with a buddy of your choosing, you can meet up to 6 unique characters all over the world! You can talk with them to get to know them better, and some may even have a quest for you. Talk to them at different moments of the story to read dialogue you might otherwise miss!

Learn new skills!

With the help of a mentor, you can learn to use your paws for more than just walking; you can break branches and stones! Clean up the temple site, and find mysteries hidden beneath the rubble.
