❤ Drafting Cards to Build the Best Cattery

In this card drafting game, players take on the role of Cat Ladies, competing to build the most impressive cattery. On each turn, you select a row or column of 3 cards from a 3x9 grid, collecting the cats, toys, food, and costumes depicted on those cards for your own personal cattery.

❤ Core Card Drafting Mechanics

The core card drafting mechanic requires careful consideration. Not only do the cards you choose benefit your own cattery, but they also deny options for your opponents. This creates an engaging back-and-forth as you try to assemble valuable sets while disrupting your opponents' plans.

❤ Scoring and Risk-Reward Balance

Scoring in the game occurs in several ways. You'll earn points by feeding the cats in your cattery, collecting complete sets of toys or costumes, and adopting stray cats. However, you can also lose points if you have too much leftover food or not enough costumes. This risk-reward balance adds depth to the decision-making process.

❤ Strategic Complexity

While the rules are straightforward, the game offers surprising strategic complexity. You must weigh the immediate benefits of certain card choices against their long-term impact on your scoring potential. Prioritizing which sets to pursue, when to hoard resources, and when to deny cards to opponents are all critical skills to master.

❤ Quick, Bite-Sized Playtime

One of the game's strongest features is its quick, bite-sized playtime. A typical round lasts only 5 minutes or less, making it an excellent "pick-up-and-play" option for short gaming sessions or as a palate cleanser between longer, more involved titles.

❤ Replayability and Variety

The game also maintains a high degree of replayability thanks to its variety of cat breeds, toys, and costumes, each with unique abilities and scoring opportunities. Combined with the different levels of AI difficulty, every game feels fresh and engaging.

❤ Accessible and Charming Presentation

Underpinning the entire experience is a charming, accessible presentation. The user-friendly tutorial does an excellent job of introducing the game's mechanics, while the cute, colorful art style appeals to players of all ages and skill levels.
