Rival cat architects compete to build the strongest castle by collecting the right buildings to match their blueprint.

Gameplay

Play cards into tricks to place in the round’s ranking, then take building cards based on that finish to complete your planned sets. The stress is reading hands and judging when to push for a higher place versus intentionally falling back for the pieces you need.
