I hadn't seen anything like it, and the idea of three suits which changed, and knowing that trump cards could be in one, two, or even all three suits, had me intrigued.
Cat Chi Cat Review – Tell your cat I said ‘pspspsps’
Cat Chi Cat has a really simple premise which plays out in ten to twenty minutes, and I love the moment when people truly get it

Everything about it feels refined, and by boiling it down with the new graphic design Chip Theory have extracted the essence of what makes a good skirmish game.

El Grande Review – Does the Granddaddy of Area Control still rule?
