Core loop: steal, run, repeat
Step
Each run follows the same rhythm. A sleeping cat means free coins; a waking cat means you need to move immediately.
- Find a sleeping cat and approach to steal the treasure.
- When a cat wakes up and spots you, run to a safe area.
- Once you reach the safe area or put enough distance between yourself and the cat, the chase ends.
- Collect cats and upgrade them to earn more coins.

Staying safe during a chase
Tips
A cat that spots you will chase you. Reach a safe area or get far enough away from the cat to end the chase.
- Run in the opposite direction from the cat to put distance between you.
- Reach a safe area to end the chase.
Spreading your runs across multiple cats
Tips
The game rewards patience. Cycling through different cats keeps your earnings steady.
- Target multiple cats rather than focusing on just one.
- Stealing from several cats in turn reduces the risk of being chased.
Upgrading your cats
Check
Coins are used to upgrade cats. The Coin Craze badge requires owning 1 Quadrillion coins, and the Level Lover badge requires 25,000 total level-ups, so steady investment is essential for reaching either goal.
- Spend coins on cat upgrades to raise their level.
- Spread upgrades across multiple cats rather than pouring everything into one.
- Track your total level-up count if you are aiming for the Level Lover badge, since 25,000 takes sustained effort.
