Kucing Tembok Tips & Tricks
Ten tips for climbing shafts, using the dash, and hunting all 36 golden stars.
Master the wall jump first
Most of the hardest stars sit at the top of shafts. Practise the rhythm in levels 1-1 and 1-2: cling to a wall, jump, then press toward the opposite wall right away.

Ten tips
- Hold jump for high jumps; release early for short, precise hops.
- In shafts, don’t hold away from the wall. Let the kick carry you to the opposite wall, then press toward it.
- Jump first, then dash. Dashing at the top of a jump covers the most distance over wide chasms.
- Dash diagonally up (hold ↑ and → then Dash) to reach high stars.
- Stomping a rat refills your dash — great for jump-stomp-dash combos.
- Watch the saws’ rhythm. Pass when a saw is at its highest point.
- Never stop on cracked floors. Keep running; you have less than half a second per tile.
- On ice, start braking early, or jump to stop on the next platform.
- Steer in mid-air after a spring to land on the platform above it.
- During a flood, feel free to skip risky stars. Finish the level, then replay to hunt them — stars are combined across all attempts.
Hunting all 36 stars
Stars you collect stay recorded even if you miss others on a later attempt, so there’s no need to grab all three in one run. On the Levels screen, the icons under each level show the stars you’ve collected.
Dash for crossing or correction?
Choose a safe endpoint before dashing. A long dash toward a narrow platform may overshoot it. Move normally to approach, then dash when the route and landing are clear. With the flood chasing, favor a learned movement over experimenting above a gap.
Practice one pair of walls
Replay a section with nearby walls or platforms. First reach the destination without taking a side-route star. Once consistent, change one move to collect the star and return to the same foothold. If the attempt fails, inspect your starting point and jump direction rather than pressing every button faster.
