Catizen Homepage Overview
- The contribution of AI could be used to stimulate realistic personalities and unique behaviors in each cat to make them look like natural pets. These cats could learn from their owners and environments from interactions and develop unique traits based on their experience. The Catizen app hosts many mini-games, all of which offer a thrilling user experience.
With Metaverse integration, these cats can live in a vast virtual world, where they can go on adventures and interact with other players. With GameFi and Metaverse synergy, the needs and behaviors of cats can drive gameplay, thus encouraging players to participate in daily activities.
Catizen’s Achievement
Produced by Pluto Studio, Catizen has become a leading Gaming Bot in the TON ecosystem. Game users have surpassed 7 million since Catizen completed its Beta version on March 19. Accordingly, Catizen is currently the fastest-growing application in the TON ecosystem, second only to Notcoin (NOT).

Catizen Investors and Partners
- These investors are helping it drive its objective which is to drag cats on top of each other to breed and increase their level. Players can earn coins by catching fish, rising to the top, and inviting friends.
Catizen Ecosystem Tokens
In this game, there are two primary types of tokens: CATS and FISH tokens. CATS represents the main token that players mine during the gameplay. On the other hand, the FISH token is for purchasing boosts and fishing.
Players must stake a minimum of 1,000 FISH tokens to participate, which can be obtained through activities like completing beginner tasks or inviting friends. Participation requires cats of at least level 110, with higher levels earning greater rewards.
Dynamics of the Game
In Catizen, players pump up the cats, farm fish, and coins while presented with an opportunity for airdrop.
Notably, 35% of the total supply (1 billion CATS tokens) was allocated for the airdrop. The rate at which CATS tokens are mined increases with the number of cats crossed; this rate is shown in a green window on the main screen.
Players can get additional FISH tokens by performing basic tasks such as becoming a Catizen bot user, joining News channels, daily checking in, and following the project on social media platform X.
How to Play the Catizen Game
The first step is to access the game through the link https://www.catizen.ai/, launch the Catizen app, and get three FISH tokens for free. The app can be launched with a mobile phone or desktop.
Upon launch, the game interface opens up to an array of sections such as Shop, Earn, Generate, Feed, and Invite. Players can connect their TON wallet to the platform to buy extra coins. To start the game, begin by merging cats of the same level to create a higher-level cat. Also, the more players interact with cats in the game’s metaverse, the more coins are accrued to a player.
In this game, the higher the level the cat is, the more coins it will get in the game. These coins can be used to buy more cats to merge and increase the amount of in-game money earned over time.
Note that cats with the same level have the same features and colors and their speed can be increased by buying extra coins. Players can buy FISH to level up their cat by depositing TON from OKX or Bybit exchanges. However, it is worth noting that NOT cannot be used to play the Catizen game.
Is Catizen the Next Notcoin?
Catizen has a different game ideology compared to Notcoin, however, both serves a complimentary purpose, to boost TON and Telegram ecosystem. As a show of support to the broader TON ecosystem growth, Catizen has announced it helped in burning 10% Notcoin or 5,000,000 NOT tokens. This burnt NOT tokens were secured from the 50 million NOT it earned in 3 days.
