Playtesting for Herding Cats, the game about coaxing unruly felines as they zoom across the board, is well under way!

After two rounds of playtesting we’ve made some excellent updates to the game! We have added a round counter and finalized the board layout. The tree has been moved to the center and sprinklers and dogs to the corner to send the kitties zooming across the board. The goals have been split into two decks and now we are working on testing point distribution.

Thank you to everyone who has playtested so far! Some new mechanics, such as the Cats being able to win, were directly a result of some of their awesome ideas. The magnets, mechanics, and marvelous figures are truly starting to make it feel like you are herding cats across the board.

Here are the next playtests for those who want to join us:

Our next playtest event will be THIS Sunday August 24th at The Philly Game Shop at 5PM in Philly PA

Thursday September 4th 6PM The Board and Brew in Philly PA with Break My Game
