Warrior Cats: Hickory Isles
★ Hickory Isles Wiki (work in progress; contribution is appreciated)
★ Discord Server
Welcome to Hickory Isles, an adventure role-playing game inspired by the Warrior Cats series by Erin Hunter.
After a young ThunderClan cat purportedly received a message from StarClan to create a new Clan, cats from all over the forest territories band together to cross the small strip of water at the Sundrown Place and make a home on the island known as Hickory Isles. You are one of the founders of this new Clan. Will CedarClan find peace in their new home?
THIS IS A DEMO! The first two days of story are complete. The storyline after that, kits, the twolegplace, and side quests are not yet complete.
There are mobile controls, but this game will not load on many mobile devices due to its size.
FAQ:
Q: Can you have a mate/what are the mate options?
A: Sort of, yes! Mates and kits will be fully implemented in part 2, but right now you can "date" one of seven characters: Westfire, Dawnwhisker, Flintsong, Wavefront, Quailtuft, Hawkfeather, and Stormfall. You can let a character know you like them by giving them a rose (not to be confused with a tulip). Roses can be found at the tops of some mountains. Some characters might need to be given multiple to get the hint.
Q: Where is Part 2 of the story/what point in development is the game?
A: Part 2 is currently in development! It's a (mostly) one man team working on this, so it's bound to take some time. There's no release date yet, but more updates will be given as progress is made.

I love this game! Can't wait for the 2nd part. :-)
God, I just can't wait for update 2.0. It's my absolute favorite game.
Lots of Players are saying that they like the pelt patterns, and character designs(Including me.), so can we add advansed Character customization, I think the main players could look alot more like the bots,Thanks!
Ps. I love this game and check it daily for updates.
PPS. Could you Please set a realese date other than:"Somtime this summer." PLEASE??
...it just hit me.
The game is missing the game tag: Cats
You’re so right lmao… just added that
In order to mate with Wavefront I never knew you had to become gay!!
Would anyone like to draw my OC?

(Oh, and one more thing: I want to mention that I don't currently have a Discord account.))
Just I quick question, in part two will there be advancded customized characters PLEASE.
Hey! I have a question! If Tawnsyblade dies is there a way to still buy accessories and everything available in shop?
In part 2 there will be. There will be a merchant in twolegplace called Red who will sell Tansyblade's items if she dies
Yesterday I started a new save where Tansyblade died fighting coyotes, but Cedarstar didn't choose a new deputy. Will she only do that in the second part? And if I kill a Clan member, will the other cats react to it in some way?
Both should be in the second part, yes! If a Clan member is killed, their close friends will have 'grieving' dialogue that should last for three in-game days
Thanks. And will anything happen if I kill a cat using a poisoned mouse or my claws (meaning the spacebar and clicking on the cat)?
I think picking a new deputy is only in Part 2, because it’s announced during a cutscene that happens on Day 5. As for the killing a clan member, it depends on who you kill and how you kill them. There’s a clan meeting called if you kill someone with a Poisoned Mouse, but other than that CedarClan cats generally won’t react (unless you have a low reputation, which will happen if you kill cats and are not going out of your way to hunt more, as you get kicked out for having low reputation).
Guys! If you name yourself Quiverpaw,select she-cat,have a similiar pelt to the original quiverpaw(from westpaws dream) and select windclan,westfire will have a totally diffrent starting dialogue!
I AM LITERALLY COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS FOR PART TWO RELEASE
yes
The description for one of the older updates states that the game should run on mobile devices. However, I’ve tried launching it on my phone countless times, and it has never worked for me. Is anyone else experiencing this?
It will only run on stronger devices. It will still fail to load on some computers, but computers are generally stronger than mobile devices. It won’t load on my phone either (which is pretty old), but I’ve had it load on other people’s phones. I believe there was talk of some kind of android port awhile ago- not sure how that’s been going.
Can you ever get more than 2 hearts with someone?
I have 124 bond with Quailtuft and I still have 2 hearts
Characters having 2 hearts on their nameplate shows that you are friends with them (25+ 'bond').
what there has been drama??who would spead rumors about that icy tea is so nice she would never :[
there is a very bitter and sad individual out there who envies Tea. just ignore them^^
its prob not true but moss shadow (sorry to bring this up) said u harrased her with ur friends
Howdy! You're right, that's not true, and that person has been spreading lies about me for months now. I'd recommend ignoring them; they're trying to stir up drama.
Well, I believe you, you're like the nicest person ever!
Soooo true :)
ok what's the moss and icy problem? Can y'all explain it to me rq? bc moss shadow is THE first warrior cats creator I've played the games of so I wanna know what it is before choosing sides!
oh lucrio I can draw your oc if you want :D
Yes Please
Hiya, Hun!
Just wanna ask if you have a timeframe for the full game to be out.
It's okay if not, I just really love the game and would love to be able to play more of it.
You've done great so far, I love the art! <3
Hello! I'm hoping it will be done sometime this summer. The only content I still need to add is quests/story content and music. I just posted a devlog that has a bit more information on the current state of the game.
And thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying it!!
Oh, nice!
Well thank you for answering, I'm excited to see the full game! >:3 <3
there doesn't seem to be more prey coming
How to screenshot this game?
if you are on a chromebook or windows device there should be a screenshot button^^ like a little camera shutter, and you click it and drag your mouse to screenshot an area
Some Chromebooks (like mines) don't have a screenshot key! Instead, we press ctrl+shift+change window (square with two lines next to it) or ctrl+shift+F5 (if external keyboard) to screenshot things! /info

yeah when is the second part come its a awesome game that you have here but im sorta getting bored with it
Hopefully during this summer 😎
I know I'm asking for the second time, but when is part two finally coming out? It's a really great game, and I can't wait.
I'm hoping sometime this summer! I just posted a devlog with some more information
This game is so much fun! When will part 2 be released?
Thank you! Hopefully at some point during summer
there no due date yet so uh idk look at the FAQ
I grew up playing Scratch warrior cat games and honestly when I searched for games on itch it was mostly as a joke. However, as an adult, I found myself genuinely sitting here for hours just having a blast. I know this game doesn’t technically have hours of content, but I was just exploring every single possible thing I could do in it and there was more than I expected! Super awesome and I’ll be keeping an eye on the progress. The art is stunning and this is the kind of game I would have LOVED as a kid. Seeing the inspiration taken from classic WC games like Untold Tales is so cool and I’m just obsessed.
Thank you!! I really appreciate it :]
I'm not going to lie, I didn't think much of this game and honestly, I played it out of boredom.
but now I want the part 2
(sorry for any mistakes, english ins't my first language and using a translator is terrible)
Hi! I love this game but for some reason after I finish part 1 the map stops working
the game is a Wip! Part 2 hasn't be released yet.
p2...im excited..
saaaaame
Is there any more specific information yet about the release date for Part 2? Because it's basically summer already (at least where I am).
I think it’s in Alpha Testing if that means anything. Not really a date but still a bit of information.
Like ProbablyPinecone said, it’s currently in Alpha Testing and available to be tested by active members of my Discord server. I’m currently working on a bunch of story and quest content. After that, I need to write a handful of music tracks, and God willing, it’ll be ready for release!
I just know it'll be awesome, you are one of my favorite game makers, like, ever!!!
Your games are da best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol
damnn
DAAAAMN
that's a- thats a lot. how long did that take?
Awesome game!
But seriously, who has the time to down vote every single comment 😭. That can’t be a very fulfilling life purpose.
and the thing is they're here like... daily so they must really hate the game to the point where they feel the need to downvote EVERYONE that comments and replies
They've downvoted everyone's, and by the time you see this, it'll probably be downvoted too... :(
can there be yuri?
(happy pride month)
There already is, but all the characters have different orientations. (Westfire is lesbian)
oh ok
Omg tytytyty for makeing this game, i swear its my #1 favorite game, the art is soooo good, i cant wait for it to be complete, i love it soooo much!
Thank you! ❤️
Hello! After playing through the game, I just had to comment on how amazing it is! I also saw a rogue with a pelt pattern I liked, so I was also wondering if i could loosely base a character of my own after it! Thanks!
Thank you, and sure, feel free! The rogue designs are my own, but feel free to take inspiration from them :3
I love this game!! It is AMAZING and I can't wait for the second part! However, I do have to say something in this game is confusing me. I tried to give Flintsong a rose, but no matter how many hearts I got her she kept rejecting me. I tried the same with Wavefront, but it didn't work. I'm a bit confused about this, and I'm wondering if you need to be a certain gender or clan something to get them to like you. Anyway, overall, I love this game, and keep up the amazing work!
Thank you! Flintsong and Wavefront only date toms, which is probably why they rejected your rose. Either that or you didn't have a high enough relationship (25 hearts or more). Flintsong, Dawnwhisker, and Wavefront will date toms, and Westfire, Stormfall, and Hawkfeather will date she-cats
Thanks for clearing it up! I really appreciate it.
I'd like to ask something. My cat is a she-cat and my bond is 27 hearts with Westfire but they don't seem to date me despite me giving them a rose. Am I missing something?
Maybe try giving a couple more roses?
Welp sorry I noticed that you are supposed to give 3 roses
Can you catch birds? If not could you make a bird catching mini game, like the one for the fish, please? Does anybody have a list of the character's favorite things to be gifted? If not, I'll make one. Is there a list of what herbs there are and where to find them?
Yes, just click them! And yes, the wiki has a gift guide. https://hickoryisles.fandom.com/wiki/Gift_Guide
THX
HELP I ATE CATNIP AND BECAME HIGH-
As you should be
SAME-
Will Honeyclaw ever be romanceable I need to romance her so badly
not to keep botherin ya but will we meet stray cats and like be friends with them just wondering! :3
There will be a town with stray cats and housecats in part 2!
Apparently, in the second part it will be possible to give the heroes mice poisoned with death berries, so I have a question: if we give such a mouse to Tansyblade, will she die and Cedarstar choose a new deputy?
Yes!
Great! And what is the probability that she will choose me as his new deputy? And can something similar be done with Echoflight?
The deputy choice order goes: Tansyblade, Hawkfeather, Westfire, and then you. If Tansyblade, Hawkfeather, and Westfire are dead or not in CedarClan anymore, you become deputy. And no, unfortunately there probably won't be a way to become medicine cat
Damn. While Tansyblade irritates me, I really like WestFire and Hawkeather.
WOOOOOWWWWWIEEEE
I mean since Tansyblade can die becase of the coyote attack, and Cedarstar doesn't choose a new deputy... Probably not.
Hi the game is very fun and the story is interesting. All the cats have alredy wormed their way into my heart. My favorit is Stormfall. I also wanted to ask if there is any way to progress past day 3. I have given all the gifts I could to everyone and I would like to bring them more.
More things to do will appear in the second part
Go to the warriors den, click your nest, and a pop-up will occur asking if you want to end the day, click yes, then, when it becomes night, click your nest again, and the sleep popup will appear. Hope this helps! :)
Thank you! This demo largely ends after day 2, but I'm working on the rest of the game now o7
