This guide provides all the information you need to know about anything related to friendship, dating, and marriage.
Basic Information
What is friendship?
Friendship is a value representing how favorable a cat is towards you. It comes in three different types of values: صداقة, dating, and marriage. These values are used independently based on your relationship with the cat. If you’re dating a cat, the dating value is used, and likewise for the marriage value. All other cats use the normal friendship value.
Each type of value can be represented by a number in the range of 0 – 1000. These numbers then correlate to a specific tier, which is displayed in the table below.
| Tier | Value Range |
|---|---|
| 0 | 0 – 199 |
| 1 | 200 – 399 |
| 2 | 400 – 599 |
| 3 | 600 – 799 |
| 4 | 800 – 1000 |
Each type of friendship has a unique symbol. The normal friendship symbol is a star, the dating symbol is a heart, and the marriage symbol is a ring. Each tier represents how many symbols are displayed for that specific type of value. فمثلا, having a tier 2 relationship with a cat you’re dating will result in 2 hearts being displayed.
ملحوظة: Spirit cats do not have a visible friendship bar until you begin dating or become married to them.
Reaching new tiers causes cats to unlock new dialogue and allows you to experience new events.
Who can I date or marry?
Almost every cat can be married, including spirits. The only exceptions are kittens, as well as cats who are participating in a rival marriage.
ملحوظة: Spirit cats have a x0.85 friendship difficulty modifier, meaning they’re 15% more difficult to gain friendship with.
