The setup for this game is that a talking cat arrives at your house and it learns words and talks with you after it moves in. As you teach it words, it will use those words to talk with you. Kuma Tomo will appear, likewise a collaboration with Taiko no Tatsujin.
Two characters have been detailed. The first is Neko whom dreams of becoming a YouTuber. The second, Tomomo, gives you advice about living.
