Overview

Catham ?ity is steeped in intrigue and deceit — corrupted officials, bribed cops, lying journalists… One must have the thick fur and sharp claws to survive here, in this dump, and even prosper. In every turn you will have a choice: you can take more cards to gain the support of one of the groups or you can turn collected resources against your rival. Infiltrate your hackers in the campaign headquarters of other players, send them your police officers with a search warrant or just gather your team of scientists and confidently march towards your victory, without being distracted by other players. Are we clear? Then it's time to show who is in charge. Catham City is a fast-playing thematic card game, where the players race to collect enough influence to become the new underground boss of Catham. Each turn, a player choses one of two possible actions - play cards from hand to earn influence, gain more cards and even mess up opponent plans or take stack of cards to his hand from the market area. The game contains 8 different decks of cards, each with unique ability and art, but you use only five each play. —description from the publisher
