Cat in the Box from designer Muneyuki Yokouchi is one of the more popular games of 2022. Many customers have contacted us to ask when we would get the game. The problem so far: US publisher Bezier Games didn’t have a European sales licence, so the game was only available in small numbers. But this seems to have changed now because the Cat in the Box Deluxe Edition will be available in the UK from February.

If you haven’t heard about the game yet, here is a short description from the publisher:

Cat in the Box: Deluxe Edition is the quintessential quantum trick-taking card game for 2 – 5 cool cats, where your card’s color isn’t defined until you play it! Hypothesize how many tricks you will win, and record your bid. Place tokens on the community research board as you play your hand, and connect large groups of tokens to score even more points. Plan your tricks carefully as you cannot claim the color of a card with the same number that has already been declared. Doing so would be pawsitively catastrophic as you have just created a paradox!
