Read the full game description

You’ve finally made it to the Cult of Cat’s initiation ceremony. Now all you need to do is complete the initiation ritual without breaking any of the secret rules. How hard can it be? To win, simply play a card from your hand while following all rules held by other players. At the start of the game, you don’t know many of the rules are in the game, so you’ll break one each turn. As more rules are revealed, it’s up to you to remember and follow them all... Each card will have an animal with a rule specifying an action to be taken. Actions can be verbal or physical, and each rule is unique. —description from the designer
