Claws Of Power Guides & Walkthroughs

Welcome to the Claws Of Power guide hub. Every walkthrough here is tied to a Steam announcement, a Garlic Sprouts developer post, or a real YouTube playthrough of this game — not a generic cat-battler template.

Claws Of Power is a single-lane, real-time card battler. You spend dried fish to summon cats, they walk forward, and the first base to fall loses. The August 19, 2026 Steam post lists 6 regions, 93 standard levels, then 44 Hard Mode levels after you finish the campaign, plus 3 hidden stages and 3 mini-bosses. The store page also calls out building upgrades, battle items, equipment matching, Lord Challenge, and socket gems.

Start here if you just bought the game

• Getting Started — first-hour habits from the developer: hold cost, fight near your base, and learn the Chapter 1 trio (Bacon Jack, A Qiang, Blue Fatty).
• How to Build a Deck — how 30+ unique cat skills counter each other, and why 1–2 equipment slots change a cheap unit.
• How to Use Items — Meow Mine, Hand of God, Garrison Whistle, Charge Horn, Clockwork Mouse, and the Jack Fusion Device.
• Equipment System — Midas Touch, Thick Iron Armor, Clone Shovel, extra slots on A-Dai / Fat Cat / Xiaofu / Big Orange, and the map shortcut.

Campaign, secrets, and endgame

• Campaign Walkthrough — 93 stages across swamp, desert, snowfield, and city regions, with the three named mini-bosses.
• How to Unlock Hidden Stages — three hidden stages plus Cook, Jimmy, and Spring Roll from the launch-eve Steam post.
• How to Beat Level 30 — mid-campaign wall using cost control, knockback, and item timing.
• Hard Mode — 44 extra stages and the August 23 gold doubling.
• Lord Challenge — store-page Lord fights, Endless Duanzang, and Father as the final trial.
• Jack Fusion Device — how Bacon Jacks fuse into Jack Hero.
• Buildings and Talents — Dried Fish Factory, base HP, Base EXP, and gold-bought main-city talents.

Use the World map for the six-region layout and Controls for Steam Deck notes. The Demo vs full game page quotes Steam app 4108190 (two chapters, four items, one lord). System requirements copies the live store specs. The PC header dropdown shows the first seven guides and sends the rest here — that is intentional, so the menu stays short.

What this hub will not invent

There is no ranked 4v4 ladder. Steam lists Single-player only. There is no season pass named Royal or Scarlet Veil in any official post. If a later patch adds those modes, they will land on the Updates Hub first.

For roster picks, jump to the Cat list and the Tier List. For every numbered Steam patch since launch, use Release notes.

How to pick a guide from a search

If you typed “codes”, open the Codes Hub — we checked Steam news through August 29, 2026 and found no official redeem codes. If you typed “hidden cat”, start with How to Unlock Hidden Stages. If you typed “gold farm”, use Hard Mode plus Equipment System for Midas Touch. If you typed “walkthrough”, the no-commentary full-game video sits on Campaign Walkthrough. If you typed “demo”, open Demo vs full game. If you typed “achievements”, use Steam achievements.

The Deck Builder is a planning toy for the cats we can name from official posts. It does not simulate live combat.

Reading order for a new save

1. Getting Started
2. How to Build a Deck
3. How to Use Items
4. Equipment System
5. How to Beat Level 30
6. How to Unlock Hidden Stages
7. Campaign Walkthrough
8. Hard Mode and Lord Challenge

That order matches how the Steam launch posts describe the game: collect cats, spend dried fish, upgrade buildings, buy items, match equipment, then challenge lords.
