From BoardGameGeek:

Get some treats for yourself! Pawlitics: Politicats vs. Candidogs / 選汪與喵：爭風奪罐 is a unique card management and negotiation game. In two upcoming elections in the Republic of Happy Pets, we will exercise some spin control and media framing to ensure the victory of our favored candidates. To become the most successful manipulator behind the elections, we'll try to alienate opponents from each other and form an alliance with you, accumulate treats, and avoid personal downfall as well, Players may draw cards from three decks in each round: Meow Party, Woof Party, and Media. The card effects include manipulating public opinion, taking treats from the Treasury or opponents, and gaining reputation. Additionally, public events such as corruption, fanaticism, and donations may occur as the game progresses, leading to voting phase of the election! Besides politicians forming cliques for private interest, the media may also bring “surprises” to us! After you activate your card effects, other players may also activate their media cards, knocking you down while you are supported by public opinion. Will you be tarnished by allegations of embezzling treats from the Treasury, or overwhelmed by the extreme backlash from the public? During the voting phase of the election, players show their support for specific candidates by playing their cards facedown. After the votes are counted, players not only distribute substantial subsidies based on the elected candidates' political platform but also reveal the "support cards" they chose before the game started, showcasing their close relationship with the elected candidate and earning a significant amount of reputation! After two elections, the player with the most reputation and treats will be the most skilled manipulator! However, players must be cautious while they strive for influence and snatch treats, at the end of the game, the player with the lowest reputation will face more difficulty before winning!
