Gato Roboto: All 14 Cartridges — Palettes, Locations and Requirements
Main story and all 32 items / not verified through gameplay · Updated 2026-10-12
Collecting all 14 cartridges lets you claim Hopper. Cartridges change colors rather than directly increasing damage, but are a prerequisite for the last Healthkit in a 100% run.

English palette names are included. Distinguish the default palette from cartridges you collect, and count the 14 collectible items.

Return after draining, furnaces and ventilation
Some routes remain blocked until their facility objective is complete. Check all pumps for Port in Aqueducts, the lava tank for Heater Core’s three cartridges, and the last switch for Ventilation’s two.
| Facility | Items to collect | Complete first |
|---|---|---|
| Aqueducts | Starboard / Goop / Port | Drain the water and obtain Spin Jump |
| Heater Core | Virtual Cat / Meowtrix / Chewed Gum | Destroy the lava tank after the boss |
| Ventilation | Grape / Gris | Final ventilation switch |

Leave time to return after Tamagato
After collecting Tamagato near the Incubator entrance, return to Nexus rather than continuing to the final area. Claim Hopper from Rebba and collect Incubator’s Healthkit to complete all 32 items.
