About Catvale — from BoardGameGeek:

After another harsh winter in Catvale, 2 to 6 players take control of ambitious cats who emerge from their homes ready to race for dominance over the land. What might appear to humans as a simple valley is an epic realm to the cats, filled with enchanted forests, perilous foes, and countless adventures offering opportunities to gain luxury and prestige. The goal? Become the most feared, worshipped, or envied ruler of Catvale - how you get there is entirely up to you. The game unfolds on a dynamic, tile-based map that creates a unique, ever-changing environment, ensuring no two games are ever the same. A fresh take on the adventure genre, Catvale blends exploration, resource management, and tactical decision-making. Players can choose from different playstyles-eco-focused, brawler, builder, adventurer, or a hybrid approach. Action dice, rolled at the start of each round, determine the strength of the actions players can take, adding an element of strategy and unpredictability. As the game progresses, players can level up their cat once, improving their base stats. Each player shapes their cat's path: will you be the aggressor, stealing prestige and robbing opponents of their dignity? Or perhaps you'll focus on foraging and construction, fancying up your backyard with luxurious structures? Live off adventure by completing quests, fulfilling ambitions, and dueling for glory, or dominate the market through cunning auctions and hiring the best workers? With multiple paths to victory and high replayability, Catvale offers a delightful mix of strategy, luck, and creativity, where the future of the land rests in the paws of the most cunning and ambitious cat. -description from the designer
