Snap the Cat Upgrades
Equipment and account upgrades are the engine of the incremental loop.
The official description names two upgrade tracks from the start: "Improve your equipment, upgrade your account" — plus resource gathering as a listed feature ("progress through resource gathering").
What is confirmed
- Equipment upgrades — taking better photos starts with better equipment (official description).
- Account upgrades — your account levels up as you grow (official description).
- Resource gathering — listed as an official feature; resources feed progression.
- Connected to skills — the skill tree (separate page) unlocks abilities that maximize the benefit of upgrades.
What is not published yet
The exact upgrade list, costs, levels and effects are not in the official description. This page will be expanded with verified data from gameplay or official patches — never with guesses.
How upgrades connect to other systems
- Upgrades vs skill tree — upgrades improve your equipment and account; the skill tree unlocks new abilities that amplify them.
- Upgrades vs decorations — decorations are a separate location-based system whose exact effects are not yet confirmed.
- Upgrades vs packs — packs add cats and costumes, while upgrades push your photo quality and account level.
The best skill tree upgrades guide covers the skill side; this page stays focused on equipment, account and resource upgrades.
