Magical Kitties Save the Day

Magical Kitties Save the Day: A Whiskered Whirlwind of Roleplaying Fun!

Welcome to a world where the extraordinary meets the adorable. Where magical powers are wielded with a twitch of the tail, and everyday problems are solved with cuddly cunning and feline finesse. From the imaginative minds at Atlas Games comes Magical Kitties Save the Day, a charming, all-ages tabletop RPG that turns you and your friends into magical cats solving human problems while fending off bigger threats like aliens, witches, and hyper-intelligent raccoons. The game delivers a blast playing experience, offering energetic, memorable fun that appeals to players of all ages. Whether you’re new to roleplaying games or a seasoned storyteller, this delightful RPG is your ticket to unforgettable adventures full of laughter, heroics, and catnip-fueled magic.

You Are Cute. You Are Cunning. You Are Fierce.

In Magical Kitties Save the Day, players take on the roles of magical feline heroes who are not only tasked with watching over their humans, but also with confronting and resolving the larger, sometimes supernatural, issues that plague their hometowns. You might face off against a rogue AI in the suburbs or chase away a sea witch from the local aquarium. But remember, your humans need you too. They’re facing problems of their own—whether it’s school bullies, mean bosses, or mysterious disappearances.

Every game starts with a few simple ingredients:

• A Power (your magical ability),

• A Talent (what you’re naturally good at), and

• A Flaw (your one big kitty weakness).

The character creation process is simple and flexible, allowing players to design their magical kitties, assign attributes, talents, flaws, magical powers, and choose their human and hometown with ease. Each player uses a character sheet to record their kitty's attributes, talents, flaws, and magical powers, making it easy to manage and reference during gameplay.

The simplicity of this character generation system makes it especially welcoming for first-time roleplayers and young players, while still offering enough depth for veteran gamers to enjoy nuanced storytelling and fun mechanics.

What Makes Magical Kitties Special?

Unlike other tabletop RPGs that demand hours of prep and complex rules, Magical Kitties Save the Day is a fast-paced, easy-to-learn game that encourages creativity and collaboration. It is a story-first system where you roll six-sided dice to overcome challenges and advance your narrative. The more dice you roll, the better your chances—but it’s the storytelling that drives the experience.

Each player assembles a dice pool based on their kitty’s stats. Certain talents or magical powers can grant an extra die to your roll, increasing your chances of success. Each die that rolls at or above the difficulty set by the Game Master (GM) counts as a success. More successes mean more effective or creative outcomes. Failure doesn’t mean the end—it just means the story takes a surprising turn, often in hilarious or heartwarming directions.

Adventures, Hometowns, and Beyond

Included in the boxed set are pre-written adventures and a fully realized hometown, River City, complete with:

• A 32-page hometown book detailing characters, locations, and potential story arcs.

• A River City full-color poster map, helping players visualize the world they’re playing in.

• Notable locations such as Dewberry Park, each with their own Adventure Ingredients and connections to the town.

River City serves as the game's core hometown setting, featuring its own unique hometown problems for the kitties to solve. This gives Game Masters everything they need to launch a compelling campaign right out of the box. However, for those who prefer crafting their own stories, the system is flexible and modular, allowing you to create your own magical kitty tales in any setting you imagine.

The included Big Adventure Solo Comic is a delightful and educational solo adventure presented in a comic book format. Ideal for players of all ages, it teaches the rules of the game through a graphic novel style, walking you through how the game works while telling an engaging, fully illustrated story.

Magical Kitties Save the Day in the Classroom or Home

Teachers and parents will love how Magical Kitties nurtures creativity, empathy, problem-solving, and cooperative storytelling. Each kitty is responsible for helping their kitty's human, and understanding their human's problems is central to the game. Players must work together to solve their human’s problems and defeat bigger threats. The game is especially well-suited to groups of children or mixed-age families, as it encourages all players to contribute ideas and solutions.

Bonus: It also teaches basic roleplaying game mechanics, setting kids up to understand more complex systems down the line (like Dungeons & Dragons or Pathfinder) while remaining a full, satisfying game on its own.

Unleashing Kitty Powers and Magical Abilities

One of the most delightful aspects of Magical Kitties Save the Day is the sheer variety of magical powers your kitty can wield. This roleplaying game lets you mix and match from 36 different magical powers, so every magical kitty is truly one-of-a-kind. Whether your feline hero can teleport across rooftops, charm humans with a purr, or conjure up a gust of wind with a flick of the tail, the possibilities are as endless as your imagination.

Each magical power brings its own flavor to the game, letting you approach challenges in creative and unexpected ways. Maybe you’ll use your Invisibility to sneak past a nosy neighbor, or deploy your Super Strength to rescue a kitten stuck in a tree. The fun comes from experimenting with different combinations of powers, talents, and flaws—no two kitties save the day in quite the same way!

As you play, you’ll earn kitty treats for clever problem-solving, roleplaying your kitty’s quirks, or pulling off daring feats. These treats aren’t just for show—they’re your ticket to even more magical mayhem! Spend them to re-roll dice, unlock bonus features for your magical powers, or give your kitty an extra edge when the stakes are high. The more you play, the more you’ll discover new ways to use your magical abilities to solve problems and keep your humans safe.

With every roll of the dice, you’ll find new opportunities to unleash your kitty’s magical powers and save the day. Whether you’re blasting obstacles with Laser Eyes or freezing time to outwit a rival, Magical Kitties Save the Day makes every adventure a blast.

The Role of the Game Master: Guiding the Whiskered Adventure

Behind every unforgettable session of Magical Kitties Save the Day is a creative and caring Game Master—the heart of the adventure! The GM’s job is to weave together the magical world, set the stage for big adventures, and help the kitties save the day in style. Think of the Game Master as the storyteller, referee, and cheerleader all rolled into one.

With a focus on collaborative storytelling, the GM works hand-in-paw with the players to build a world full of excitement, mystery, and fun.
