Meow Palace: Forbidden City is a cozy idle collection game focused on desktop companionship. Adorable cats will keep players company on the background while the beautiful palace changes through seasons.

ABOUT THE GAME

In Meow Palace, players are not just raising cats—they’re joining them. Taking the role of a stray kitty who’s wandered inside the Forbidden City and found a new calling as an “Imperial Guardian.” Whether studying, working, or simply taking a break, the palace cats will quietly gather treasures, learn new skills, and keep players company.

The game faithfully recreates iconic Chinese locations and incorporates traditional sundial timekeeping that connects to real-time Beijing weather data, synchronizing sunshine, rain, snow, and seasonal changes from Beijing into the Forbidden City—spring apricot blossoms, lush summer shade, golden autumn hues, and snow-covered winter roofs, all viewable without leaving home.

Customize your own cat with unique looks, and explore the palace halls to craft furniture, unlock treasures, and complete your Palace Encyclopedia. Each discovery brings new stories, skills, and insights into Chinese heritage, turning idle moments into miniature cultural adventures.

Meow Palace: Forbidden City includes a desktop pet mode, allowing the little cat to wander around on the computer, quietly gathering resources while player’s focus on their work.
