In a nutshell, you pick what you want to build, sometimes that will gives you resources or defense. And in around every 3 rounds, you will be attacked. Every attack will be worst than the previous one. However, over-defending you will not help, troops sometimes will not attack at once but they are queue and even if you have a clear superiority, you could lose a precious troop. Finally, your army will be worn out and you will be defend yourself against a big army.
Starter guide:
It is a grind game with a high drop level.
In the inventory screen, you can increase the level of every cat by clicking over the cat.
Heart : hit point.
Hand : attack point
L : stamina. (you can recharge stamina by drinking milk).
Strategy (from the right to left):
Heart priority over hand : First and second cat. (also use sword weapon)
Hand priority over heart : Third and fourth cat (also use bow weapon)
Stamina = use the minimum possible, don't even brother spending extra point on it. Also, don't use inventory to increase the stamina (unless you don't have enough inventory). Pro tip: lets all cats with the same stamina. For the first stage, stamina level 10 is more than enough.
First stage better drop:
-freddy & jason, roshstat = best defensive armor and sword weapon.
-ken & ryu = best attack armor.
-roshtath = best defensive hat.
-freddy & cavemen = best attack hat
-pulpfiction = best bow weapon.
