Cat-In-8 is an innovative cat-themed abstract strategy game that challenges players to outwit their opponents in a race to score points by aligning three or more cat tokens in a row. Drawing inspiration from the word “catenate”—to link things together—this clever title takes the concept of connection to new heights through its unique tile-shifting mechanics.

The game’s dynamic 4x4 grid is in constant motion, with players rotating, sliding, and rearranging tiles to create scoring opportunities while thwarting their rivals. Adding to the unpredictability are Chaos Cards, which introduce playful twists to the game. These special cards let players swap tokens, rotate tiles, or push rows to shake up the board and keep everyone on their paws.

For those skilled (or lucky!) enough to align eight cat tokens in a single row, the ultimate victory is theirs—immediately ending the game in a thrilling feat of strategy and chaos.

Whether you’re a fan of lighthearted competition or calculated maneuvers, Cat-In-8 delivers a perfect balance of thoughtful gameplay and chaotic fun. With its easy-to-learn rules, replay ability, and original artwork, this game promises an engaging experience for casual gamers, families, and seasoned strategists alike.
