Cozy Cat Cafe is a tile placing game, and players need to strategically place their cats and furniture in the right position to entice the customers and gain extra points by bringing ambience into the cafe. Players will compete to be the first to attract big spenders, shake things up by activating cat abilities, and pull off perfect combos to transform their cafe with maximum ambience. Each player starts with an empty Cozy Cat Cafe, gathering resources over a total of 3 rounds, each with 9 turns. Players take turns to either adopt cats, buy furniture, or invite customers into their cafe. Adopting cats will cost you cookies, but allow you to play cat cards; buying furniture will cost you coins, but inviting the customers will bring you resources as well as points. Cozy Cat Cafe has 16 goal tiles for different bonus combinations each game and a variety of different customer cards for increased variability.
Cozy Cat Cafe has 4 videos from 4 creators: 1 review and 3 how-to-play guides. They date from 2025 to October 2026.
