What we love about Catopia: Rush is that it has clearly been developed from scratch for mobile, with a portrait orientation suitable for the palm of your hand and an interface that lets you control everything with one. single inch.
It’s really a pretty ingenious entry mechanism. When your thumb is on the screen, you engage a floating joystick, and when you lift it, your team of cats will begin to shoot and automatically deploy their special abilities.
