Gameplay
Katsuma Unleashed is a side-scrolling platform game in which players control Katsuma through a series of linear levels across multiple themed worlds. Gameplay consists of running, jumping and attacking enemies while navigating environmental hazards and collecting items.[1]

As the game progresses, players unlock additional abilities that allow access to hidden areas and optional content, encouraging re-playability.[1]
Development
Katsuma Unleashed was developed as part of an effort to expand the Moshi Monsters franchise beyond its browser-based origins into console games. The Nintendo 3DS & DS versions were developed by Sumo Digital.[3]
The project was led by executive producer Steve Lycett and lead designer James Clark, with music composed by Allister Brimble.[4] Development involved collaboration between Sumo Digital and franchise owner Mind Candy, whose founder Michael Acton Smith oversaw the broader brand direction.
The game was designed to retain the accessibility of the original online game while adapting it into a traditional side-scrolling platform format suitable for handheld consoles.[5]
Release
The game was released in Europe on October 11, 2013 and in North America on November 5, 2013 for Nintendo DS and Nintendo 3DS.[6]
Nintendo Life reported on the game's launch in the United Kingdom, noting its availability on both platforms at release.[7]
