Read the full game description
Cathood is a strategic neighborhood game in which each player controls one of eight cats exploring a modular city. Limited action discs move cats through streets and across rooftops, collect resources, deliver them to useful destinations, and establish houses or statues that strengthen territorial control. Building, park, toy, and secret-objective cards create several scoring paths, while shared spaces keep rivals competing for the best routes and sets. The result blends area influence, pickup-and-deliver movement, and set collection in a colorful feline setting.
