Faction Hats, Fashion Clout
UnlockablesJoin the Meowfia or Purrlice and you’ll snag that faction’s signature hat. It’s both style and a handy identifier of where your loyalties lie this run.
Harmony Shop Exclusives
UnlockablesEarn Harmony Points by helping other players (especially those on story beats) and spend them on a different set of hats and masks than the Chaos shop. Think co-op rewards with practical boosts.
Chaos Shop Drip
UnlockablesBreak things, cause mayhem, and rack up Chaos Points to access a distinct pool of cosmetics. Hitting thresholds—like 5000 for the big achievement—unlocks more options.
Diver’s Hat: Bye-Bye Water Damage
UnlockablesGrab the Diver’s Hat from the Harmony shop and swim like you own the ocean. It negates water damage, which is a massive upgrade in a world where cats normally suffer in deep puddles.
Gear You Unlock Through the Story
UnlockablesPush the main missions to open up new weapon types and equipment. Bosses like the MechaPug and the Dogfather drop unique rewards, and each faction path exposes different gear opportunities.
Cat Creator: Make Your Feline
UnlockablesPlay with the Cat Creator to build your own look—body types, fur patterns, colors, eye options, the whole deal. Crafting a kitty nets an achievement, and swapping styles keeps the chaos fresh.
Cool Cat in the Shades
Easter EggsThere’s a playable feline rocking tiny Matrix-style sunglasses. It’s a straight-up nod to the classic film and one of many pop-culture winks scattered around town. Keep your eyes peeled—nearly every NPC hides a pun or a cat joke somewhere.
Meet Nic Tailsla, Your Claw-ver Inventor
Easter EggsSay hello to Nic Tailsla, the game’s resident tinkerer. It’s a purrfect parody of Nikola Tesla, and he’s the cat who helps you build and upgrade gadgets and weapons as you progress.
Meowfoy Locked Up (Again)
Easter EggsFans of the devs’ older game might stumble onto Meowfoy tucked in a cage, cracking jokes and connecting the studio’s little shared universe. It’s a neat callback for returning players—and a quirky surprise for newcomers.
The Goblin Off the Grid
Easter EggsLaunch yourself outside the city limits using the game’s chaotic traversal and you’ll find a lone goblin camped in a tent. It’s an off-map gag that rewards creative physics shenanigans.
Fire the Chicken Cannon
Easter EggsFind a chicken on the beach and score a hit with a cannon to unlock a hidden achievement. Yes, it’s ridiculous. Yes, it’s very on-brand for Heist Kitty’s slapstick humor.
That RC Helicopter Mission...
GlitchesThe Purrlice route’s RC helicopter mission handles rough. Expect finicky inputs and a higher-than-expected fail rate. It’s notorious and still unpatched, so bring patience (and maybe a snack).
Stuff Disappears When You Enter Buildings
GlitchesThere’s a hard de-spawn/reset when you go in and out of interiors. Items and vehicles you parked outside can vanish or respawn elsewhere. Avoid stashing valuables in tight or odd spots before stepping indoors.
The same button handles climbing, entering vehicles, and controlling humans. In the heat of the moment, you’ll trigger the wrong action a lot. Slow your approach and line up angles to reduce misinputs.
Not Every Car Is Stealable
GlitchesSome vehicles are just scenery. There’s no clear indicator, so you’ll sometimes waste time trying every door. If it won’t let you in after a couple tries, move on to the next set of wheels.
Cats Hate Water, Humans Don’t
GlitchesIt’s intended, but it feels odd: cats take water damage, humans don’t. Use people as ferries to cross safely—or snag the Diver’s Hat later to ignore the hazard entirely.
Bigger on the Inside
GlitchesSome interiors don’t match their exterior footprint and feel much larger inside. It’s disorienting, but treat it like weird cat magic—or a level design quirk—and you’ll be fine.
Ride the Humans
HintsYou can jump onto humans and steer them. Why do this?
- Speed: They’re faster than you.
- Shield: They soak enemy fire like champs.
- Water taxi: Cats take water damage, humans don’t—so ride them across rivers like furry captains.
Stacking Cats and Car Launches
HintsHeist Kitty’s traversal is gloriously chaotic.
- Cat stack: Multiple players can pile onto one vehicle for co-op chaos.
- Boost glitch: Spam jump while driving to rocket across the map.
- Options galore: Climb almost anything, fire from cannons, hijack drones, and even ride certain enemies.
Skip the Fight, Win the Fight
HintsNot every enemy needs a face full of steel. Often, you can:
- Climb on enemies and steer them into hazards.
- Avoid fights entirely with smart movement.
- Use the world instead of your ammo.
Chaos vs. Harmony: Pick Your Vibe
HintsTwo parallel reward tracks cater to different moods:
- Chaos: Break stuff, cause trouble, mash arcade cabinets.
- Harmony: Help others and support story progress in co-op.
Both feed into special shops with hats and masks that come with gameplay buffs.
Hats That Actually Do Something
HintsHats aren’t just cosmetic. You can pick up gear that adds:
- Armor for reduced damage
- Speed boosts
- Special perks like water immunity (hello, Diver’s Hat)
If you hate taking swim damage, Diver’s Hat is a must.
Meowfia or Purrlice? Choose Your Nine Lives
GuidesEarly on, you pick a side—Purrlice or Meowfia—and the story shifts accordingly.
- Purrlice: Academy training, squad cars, drones, and a rough RC helicopter mission folks love to hate.
- Meowfia: Nightclubs, robberies, and a more varied quest feel.
They’re not true enemies; later story beats tie them together. Replay to see both angles.
Leveling and Loot 101
GuidesKeep an eye on your Journal to track XP and tasks. Spend XP on:
- Melee: Stronger basic attacks
- Magic: Cheaper spell casts
- Armor: Less incoming damage
You’ll also juggle Chaos points and collect Candy as a side currency for various unlocks.
Build-A-Blaster with Tailsla
GuidesEarly game, start hoarding parts for Nic Tailsla. You’ll:
- Collect components from multiple locations
- Assemble weapons and gadgets
- Upgrade gear with found resources to keep damage and utility climbing
Achievement Hunt Roadmap
GuidesThere are 32 achievements to chew through. Highlights:
- Absolute Chaos: Hit 5000 Chaos Points
- Harmony grinder: Score 5000 Harmony Points
- Pat 10/30/50/100 Cats: Find and pet hidden kitties
Boss clears, story milestones, and NPC interactions all add to your checklist.
Where the Game Hides Its Goodies
GuidesThe map is littered with secrets—about 17 documented Easter egg spots and more tucked outside the main city. Use your achievement list to pinpoint what you’re missing, then explore off the beaten path.
