How it feels

A deceptively cute strategy game where each move feels like a tense, calculated gamble against sneaky canine opponents.

What players say

Players describe a simple but deep turn-based board game where cat and dog race across a 7x7 grid, placing fences to block the opponent. Many find the single AI mode punishingly hard, often losing early games, while others note the AI is beatable with practice. Some praise the addictive chess-like quality, but a few criticize basic graphics and AI turn speed.
