Shield Cat  is a game starring Lance the otter, a mail courier for the Cat Kingdom. One day, he wakes up to find that his partner Parker has gone missing. What’s worse, dark magic is appearing everywhere! The kingdom is in chaos, King King Cat the Cat is missing, and Lance’s friends seem to be responsible. Lance will need all the help he can get on his adventure to save his partner, his friends, and maybe the Cat Kingdom.
