About the game

The Isle of Cats (2024 Edition) is a board game from City of Games, designed by Frank West (2019). It plays 1–4 players in 60–90 minutes, for ages 8+. BoardGameGeek players rate it 7.6 out of 10 and call it medium (2.4 / 5 weight).

The Isle of Cats is a competitive card-drafting, cat-placement board game for 1 – 4 players (6 with Late Arrivals expansion).
You are citizens of Squall’s End on a rescue mission to The Isle of Cats and must rescue as many cats as possible before the evil Lord Vesh arrives.

Each cat is represented by a unique tile and belongs to a family, you must find a way to make them all fit on your boat while keeping families together.

You will need to manage resources as you choose cards to explore the island, rescue cats, find treasures, befriend Oshax and read ancient lessons. Each lesson you collect will give you another personal way of scoring points, in addition to filling your boat and keeping cat families together!

The game comes with the standard mode, a family mode for young children and less experienced gamers, and a solo mode.

Great price, dented box

The price was great as well as the follow-up texts for the order. The game box was dented some but the contents inside seem fine. The shipping box was not damaged so it seems to be a pre-shipping dent and could be the reason for the great price. Either way I decided it was okay enough to not go through the hassle of a return and glad I have the game now.
