Like chess, you can pick it up very quickly – reading the rules only takes a few minutes. The mechanics are simple but intricate, which makes it a fun game that anyone can play (7 of 10). The main books are cats and food (defined by the diet on each cat), toys (which is a collect-them-all system), costumes (which are scoring engines) and green cards (which have special powers or punish you for not having them). The books are bought off of a 3×3 grid and a special board of 3 “stray cats.” To buy the strays you need to spend “lost cards” which simply makes them part of the initial books with extra steps. You have a goal of collecting “books” that score you points.
Overall, the cartoony artwork adds to the playing of the game, 8 of 10. The bonus VP tokens are standard cardboard tokens, which adds to the variety of the pieces it has more different mediums than most small box games. The food pieces are standard wooden blocks, but the cat icon (which manages the rows) is well made and a nice piece. The game is quick, but the artwork is important as the color of your cat could activate special scoring. The game is a fun little game as the cat (and other cards) are all drawn in the same style, which keeps your mind in the game. Simple cartoon art, wood pieces, and a standard small sized box are a recipe for success. The story earns Cat Lady a 6 out of 10 for story.
The story is cute: you collect cats and give them toys and costumes, but it is a little dark as your cats you do not feed die (or go to the pound, you lose them at the end, and points, if you do not feed them). To be fair, if you are collecting cats, you also need to keep in mind that you have to feed your little furry friends, so you are on a race against the deck to get as many cats as you can, but make sure you feed them – or else you lose points. In the game, you are on a quest to collect cats, toys, food and other items that can turn your house into a miniature zoo. In Cat Lady, you play the role of a person who is out to protect the most little kitty lives you can. To help you meet the desire to collect cats, or if you just want a fun little game, AEG has brought forth the game Cat Lady to meet your feline finding fancy.
Have you ever thought of being a cat collector? Bringing multiple cats into your home can be a rewarding experience, but it also can be a pain in the butt and a major drag on your social life.
