When a stray kitten shows up at the office, she surprises herself by volunteering to give it a home, even though she knows nothing about cats. But if she can level up dozens of RPG characters, how hard can it be to level up a cat? There are 7 different houses with gardens to play and explore. You have 6 different quests that you need to pass to complete the level. Some of the quests:

Not all manga is created equal; some are created because the mangaka wants to tell a grand story with heavy themes and plot twists. Some are created as tie-ins to other series and help sell merchandise. Some are thin disguises to draw porn, and some are there just to have a good time. Cat + Gamer falls into this category. The premise is as simple as the paragraph above, there are no strange twists or hidden depths or scenarios created to get Riko in sexy poses; it’s just a series about a gamer girl, learning to take a care of a cat. So, if anything from the synopsis above grabs your attention and you just want a fluffy, fun read, then look no further than Cat + Gamer. Comic Natalie (in Japanese). Natasha, Inc. May 17, 2019.

Just… living together," says Davisson. "It's not a magic cat. It’s not secretly running its own Twitch stream. It’s just a cat. And the cat does all those things cats do. Which is absolutely delightful."

Cat + Gamer = A New Manga to Add to Your Reading List

This book is basically the kitten being bored and destructive because the girl is too obsessed with her video game. This is an adult woman yet she talks like a child, using gaming language in every day life. A little cringe 😬 Mateo, Alex (December 29, 2021).

So now you get all kinds of variations on gaming terms but applied to cats, and that does sound a bit naff, but it isn't! It's quite charming. (And the book does explain those gaming terms, btw.) The Japanese title is something like 'Gamer who lives with a cat,' which doesn't exactly leap off the shelves," the writer explains. "I brainstormed a bunch of ideas, including Nine Lives and Ready Player Cat. But none of them really sparked. Then I thought of keeping it simple, and just Cat + Gamer with the plus sign being a controller dpad. That was the clear winner." The first volume of the series covers the first eight chapters of the series; each chapter is told from Riko’s perspective with each scenario being something like Riko trying to eat dinner or enjoy her gaming but then being distracted by the cat in her home. Cats need attention, food and sleep, so it’s all about how Riko’s lifestyle must change to accommodate it. At the end of each chapter, we also get a few panels from the cat’s perspective; it’s not necessary to understand the story, but they’re cute, nevertheless. The events in the story are very slice-of-life: what do cats play with, when should I feed him, how do I get the cat to stop trying to scratch me whilst I’m playing my game, and so on. Each chapter is self-contained, so the volume as a whole is an easy breezy read.a b 猫暮らしのゲーマーさん ８ (in Japanese). Shogakukan. Archived from the original on October 4, 2023 . Retrieved August 14, 2022.
