Kittens Game is a text-based Idle Game created by "bloodrizer", put online in 2014 and updated many times since. You start by harvesting catnip from the forest to start planting your own fields, and start building homes for other kittens to move into. The game quickly begins adding elements of city simulation games as you assign jobs to your growing population to bring in more resources, and research new technology and upgrades to build up your little village, to the point where your kittens will be exploring space, building moon bases, and even researching metaphysical stuff.The "stable mainline" release of the game, updated nightly, can be found here. A wiki is available on the same site. The "stable backup" version (which may lag behind by several months) can be found here, and a backup of the old wiki is available on the same site. Mobile versions for Android and iOS have also been released. | |

The Artifact | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_13d7a65e | comment |
The Artifact: Black Liquid Sorrow is measured in percentage points. It's not actually a percentage of anything now, but in older builds, having BLS would provide a production boost. This feature can be brought back by enacting the "Necrocracy" end-game policy. | |

Early Game Hell | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_1527d90d | comment |
Early Game Hell: Much of the early game is noticeably slower thanks to having few buildings that increase in price quickly, and slow resource production. Once you get more resources as well as Paragon (which increases production and storage) via New Game Plus, a lot of the production speeds up considerably. The "Winter Has Come" challenge. In the early game, getting a sufficient catnip production is extremely difficult due to the permanent winter and subsequent catnip production cuts, as well as Paragon bonuses not applying to catnip production in the challenge. Once you research Aqueducts and better farming tools, all it will take are a few farmers (who are unaffected by the Catnip production penalty of winter) to outgrow the production from catnip fields and offset the catnip demand, pretty much defeating most of the difficulty altogether. | |

Religion of Evil | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_187bddc1 | comment |
Religion of Evil: Zig-Zagged with the Ziggurats, which let you sacrifice unicorns in order to build structures out of their tears, which in turn... summons even more unicorns. Furthermore, it's explicitly stated that the unicorns aren't killed when sacrificed, but just sent back to their dimension. Once you get the Megalomania upgrade for Metaphysics and its associated buildings/upgrades, it starts becoming far more evil, with corrupted "necrocorns", black pyramids, and an Eldritch Abomination. | |

Alternative Calendar: Four seasons of 100 days each. Amusingly, during the "Winter Has Come" challenge, there's still four seasons — Winter I, Winter II, Winter III, and Winter IV. After researching Astronomy, there's also a rotation of ten five-year "star cycles". | |

Achievement Mockery | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_1d8bd418 | comment |
Achievement Mockery: Any achievement which has a red-coloured border is essentially a Mark of Shame and is often achieved by doing something bad or foolish: The "Winter is Coming" and "You Monster" Achievements are awarded to players who had 10 and 100 kittens starve to death respectively in one run, presumably as a form of Video Game Cruelty Punishment. The "Super Unethical Climax" achievement is awarded to players who click the catnip-gathering button 2,500 consecutive times without 2.5 seconds ever passing between clicks — i.e, using an autoclicker. The "System Shock" achievement is awarded for trying (and failing) to sell an AI core during the AI apocalypse — it's not going to let you out that easily! | |

The Computer Is a Lying Bastard | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_1da01dce | comment |
The Computer Is a Lying Bastard: Exploring to find more races to trade with after the dragons gives the message "Maybe there are no more civilizations left?" even if you still have yet to find the leviathans. This bit of sleight of hand ends up making little difference, though, as the last race isn't found via the normal method anyway. | |

Refining Resources | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_2902d216 | comment |
Refining Resources: Basic resources such as catnip, wood, minerals, and furs can be refined (some slowly but automatically and others slightly faster but manually) into more complex resources at ridiculously low rates (it takes 175 furs to make a single page of parchment, 25 parchment to make a manuscript, 50 manuscripts to make a compendium, 25 compendiums to make a blueprint) which can thankfully be improved with more Workshops and Factories (and in the case of Manuscripts, Compendiums and Blueprints, their codex metaphysics upgrades). Fortunately, most refined resources have no cap, and later on you can assign kittens to craft them over time. | |

Adam Smith Hates Your Guts | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_29f44d3a | comment |
Adam Smith Hates Your Guts: Most buildings increase in price by 15% for every purchase - the first few purchases can be easy, but stacking them means prices quickly skyrocket. Some early buildings like Huts and Barns scale far far worse, which keeps your village from explosively growing until you research better alternatives. | |

Magikarp Power | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6 | comment |
Magikarp Power: The Steamworks. As its description suggests, it initially significantly reduces coal production and doesn't do anything by default. However, upgrades allow it to perform Manuscript Conversion, produce energy, perform Gameplay Automation by converting resources up to twice a year, and even boost the production effect of Magnetos. Faith Bonuses via Solar Revolution. At first, getting worship is a hassle and it doesn't even provide much of a boost. However, when you convert your worship to epiphany, it provides an "Apocrypha" boost that increases the amount of worship per point put in (a 200% apocrypha boost makes each point of faith praised give 3 worship), eventually getting to larger percentages. Then once you use Transcendence, it sacrifices some of your current epiphany to make said it grow even further from fewer worship sacrifices. With this, you can gain worship very quickly, eventually allowing the boost to surpass that of Magnetos and Reactors (it stacks with them too!), and best of all this apocrypha and transcendence boosts carry over from resets. It does take a good bit of time to do this, and it has been Nerfed such that your maximum worship production bonus is capped at 1000%. Trade Ships are made with scaffolding, plates and starcharts. The first two are refined from wood and iron which can be put to better use elsewhere while starcharts are only automated a long way into the techtree, so why get them at all? Because while only one ship is needed to get access to zebras (and therefore titanium), the chance of getting titanium and amount of titanium traded increases with the amount of ships. Zebras randomly refusing to give you titanium is a lot less important when you can get several hundred with a single successful trade (as opposed to the one or two at the beginning). Add in one upgrade makes them boost storage limits and the fact that they can be manufactured automatically... | |

Player Nudge: Once the tech tree starts requiring manuscripts, the way the tooltip expands crafted materials can make it look like you need an impossibly high amount of culture — so the first few of these helpfully point out that you don't need it all at once.

Temporal Paradox: Once you start tinkering with the past, time will begin to stutter and drop you into a paradox. Your kittens are frozen until your calendar ticks out of the "negative days" and back into normal time. Naturally, yet another rare resource - void, a kind of dimensional energy - starts to wash into your Chronospheres, and more advanced and expensive tech will let you widen the paradox and farm void more reliably. | |

Diminishing Returns for Balance | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_53e6f4a | comment |
Diminishing Returns for Balance: Many bonuses that boost almost everything will only go so far before hitting diminishing returns, worship and paragon bonuses in particular as they can be easy to build up and up once you know how. Other global bonuses (like most things electricity related) rely on escalating costs to curb them, or don't apply to anything that's space-related. | |

Casual Interstellar Travel | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_56855fa3 | comment |
Casual Interstellar Travel: Zigzagged: while going to other planets takes a very long time (without upgrades, one of them takes 46 years- not in-game, real years, and a mere 7 months with all upgrades), extraterrestrial structures are built and resources sent back instantly. You can even have kittens living in high orbit two at a time who can be put to work the same as their Cath-based counterparts, and presumably have the best commute ever recorded in the history of working. | |

Cats Are Lazy | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_58e3bec6 | comment |
Anarchy: Kittens are lazy; they eat more catnip, you can't assign a leader, and only half of them will do a job at all. Building an AI core under this challenge makes kittens in future runs count double towards Karma. Repeated runs increase the percentage of lazy kittens during the challenge, but also increase the benefit of Master-rank skill during normal runs. | |

New Game Plus: Resetting the game once you're over a certain population will get you karma, which makes your kittens happier, and paragon, which speeds up the game and eases some of the resource caps (and every thousand years reached on a single run gives paragon useable during that run). The Metaphysics tech unlocks an entire new tech tree of upgrades that let you spend paragon to add bonuses, reduce prices, or even add new mechanics, all of which carry over to the next run. Chronophysics even lets you start with some of your resources from the previous game, letting you quickly slap up the first buildings and skip past the early build up. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Unless you read through the wiki, or make it a point to explore obscure options on your own, there's plenty of things to miss: The game only presents certain buildings as options once you have some of what's required to build it (so you won't be shown Barns until you have a fair amount of wood). Since no building ever seems to need "megaliths", many players never bother to craft one, and therefore never see that they can build Ziggurats, which are key to an entire new religion involving unicorns. Getting titanium as a new resource can be frustrating. The Navigation tech clearly unlocks Harbors to build for more storage, but also unlocks the easy-to-miss Trade Ships to craft in the Workshop. Trade Ships are expensive and have no clear purpose. The only hint is an obscure message when sending explorers that to find more trading partners you need to reach another continent. Trade Ships let your explorers find Zebras, who offer iron and (rarely) titanium in trade. It's also not immediately clear that having more ships will get you more titanium, although there is at least a different upgrade that encourages shipbuilding. Plenty of other late-game mechanics, prestige upgrades, and rare resources require a guide to understand and use effectively, since they involve resetting the game in some way. Getting karma and paragon is simple enough, but then there's metaphysics, cryptotheology, transcendence, an entire branch of time-manipulation tech... Completing the Black Sky Challenge Run improves Markers by 10% — their corruption factor will increase from .00001% to .000011%, and they will increase leviathan energy cap by 5.5 instead of 5. Until a challenge overhaul in 1.4.8.2, this was explained precisely nowhere. | |

Obvious Rule Patch | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_b89ed08a | comment |
Obvious Rule Patch: To prevent the player from earing massive amounts of Unobtainium from boosts like Magnetos or Solar Revolution, it is one of the few resources unaffected by Magnetos, Reactors, Solar Revolution, or Paragon. Only Space Production bonuses will affect it. The Relic Station upgrade costs 5000 antimatter. Since antimatter storage is a massive energy sink, one might be tempted, after building the Relic Station, to disable your containment chambers and get that energy back. To discourage this, having less than 5000 antimatter storage linearly reduces the efficiency of the Relic Station. The Transkittenism policy, which prevents the AI Apocalypse, cannot be enacted if the apocalypse has already begun. The apocalypse also prevents you from selling off AI cores — instead, you get an achievement. During the "Winter Has Come" Challenge Run, paragon production bonuses don't apply to catnip, since the entire point of the challenge is to suffer through the reduced catnip production of a permanent winter. During the "Black Sky" challenge, the normal method of acquiring titanium for the first time — trading with zebras — is impossible until much later in the game than a normal run. So your first Calciner costs no titanium. Similarly, since starcharts are unavailable until you launch a Satellite, the Orbital Launch and first Satellite cost no star charts. However, in exchange, these things all cost 11 times more of their other resources than they do in normal runs. | |

Meta Power-Up | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_c28b8996 | comment |
Faith Bonuses via Solar Revolution. At first, getting worship is a hassle and it doesn't even provide much of a boost. However, when you convert your worship to epiphany, it provides an "Apocrypha" boost that increases the amount of worship per point put in (a 200% apocrypha boost makes each point of faith praised give 3 worship), eventually getting to larger percentages. Then once you use Transcendence, it sacrifices some of your current epiphany to make said it grow even further from fewer worship sacrifices. With this, you can gain worship very quickly, eventually allowing the boost to surpass that of Magnetos and Reactors (it stacks with them too!), and best of all this apocrypha and transcendence boosts carry over from resets. It does take a good bit of time to do this, and it has been Nerfed such that your maximum worship production bonus is capped at 1000%. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The achievement for having 10 kittens dead is "Winter Is Coming", which is followed by the challenge "Winter Has Come". The "Super Unethical Climax" achievement is based on Professor Genki's Super Ethical Reality Climax. One of the things your kittens can do after building temples and researching Theology is to "Praise the Sun". Solaire would be proud. The description of Geology: The "Dune" planet has spice as a harvestable resource from it. No worms, though. The Flavor Text of the AI Core is "I think we can purr our differences behind us. For science." Get to 40k years and the Dark Future starts. There's also an achievement called "Cathammer 40k" with the Flavor Text "In the grim and dark future of a catkind there are no resets". One rare resource is Black Liquid Sorrow. The last space mission possible is to reach the Furthest Ring. | |

Bad Future | |

Bad Future: Once you hit the year 40,000, whether naturally or more likely by fast-forwarding, the black hole at the center of the solar system starts having some interesting effects. While you can take advantage of this and adapt to get more energy and lots more storage, all the time shenanigans get progressively harder the further you go. It's been confirmed this is in place to prevent Time Travel for Fun and Profit being abused endlessly. | |

Idle Game: More complicated than most given the variety of resources to manage, but you still wait for resources come in and spend them on upgrades. | |

Gameplay Automation | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_e078a82 | comment |
The Steamworks. As its description suggests, it initially significantly reduces coal production and doesn't do anything by default. However, upgrades allow it to perform Manuscript Conversion, produce energy, perform Gameplay Automation by converting resources up to twice a year, and even boost the production effect of Magnetos. | |

Slow Transformation | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_eb5ab60f | comment |
Slow Transformation: Once you have built Markers, it will gradually corrupt Alicorns into Necrocorns that can be used to feed Elders or build higher-tier religion buildings. The catch? This process is agonizingly slow, even with dozens of Markers and several relevant upgrades. And if you already have at least one Necrocorn, the speed is cut down to a quarter. | |

Jerkass | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_eb8ec7c8 | comment |
Jerkass: Some of the other races (especially the Zebras) you can trade with are flagged "hostile", and will randomly steal your trade caravan without paying anything back ("X hate you for no reason"). Having the Caravanserai upgrade along with enough trade posts will reduce this, as will having the Diplomacy upgrade. A very downplayed example are the Dragons. While they're not hostile and are a neutral race, there's a 5% chance that they don't give any Uranium to your kittens in return. Having the Caravanserai and Diplomacy upgrades along with a lot of tradeposts will not reduce this at all. | |

| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_edb7569a | comment |
Our Gryphons Are Different: One of the races that your kittens can trade with are the Griffins, and unfortunately, they're jerkasses hostile to kittens and may refuse to trade their part. Having a Caravanserai, a few Tradeposts, and the Diplomacy upgrade will make them more generous to the kittens. | |

Wizard Needs Food Badly | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_ee828827 | comment |
Wizard Needs Food Badly: All kittens require a source of catnip in order to survive. If the player runs out of catnip and there's a deficit in production, they will start dying one by one. | |

Time Travel for Fun and Profit | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_f09a2e19 | comment |
Time Travel for Fun and Profit: Investing seriously in three facets of the endgame - the Time Dilation tech, space infrastructure to mine Unobtanium, and the religion that summons the trading Eldritch Abomination - lets you set up a loop of shattering a time crystal, generating enough unobtanium from the skip, and trading that to the Leviathans to end up with more time crystals than you started with. It takes a fairly large stockpile of crystals just to set up the tech however. | |

Mutually Exclusive Power-Ups: Policies come in sets, and you can only enact one from each set — either "Liberty" or "Tradition", but not both, then exactly one of "Monarchy" or "Autocracy" or "Republic", and so on. This is marked by the policies in a set having the same numeric cost. | |

Sequence Breaking | |
| Kittens Game (Video Game) / int_fb111d49 | comment |
Sequence Breaking: The intended method of getting into nuclear production is to trade titanium to the Dragons for enough uranium to build your first Accelerators. However, it's also possible — and, on later runs and especially during the Black Sky challenge, far more effective — to hold out for the Orbital Geodesy upgrade that allows you to get it from Quarries. If you're feeling very silly, it's also possible to get to Dune and build Planet Crackers, thereby getting your first uranium from space. | |
