Cat's Gambit and Cat Sudoku: Summer Festival

Created by Ta-Te Wu

Welcome to our Store on Backerkit! We're thrilled to open the preorder store for our two latest crowdfunded games—Cat’s Gambit and Cat Sudoku: Summer Festival—along with a selection of our other beloved titles. 🐾 Cat’s Gambit is a clever solo puzzle game where the elegance of chess meets feline mischief. Arrange chess piece cards to navigate tricky positions, outwit the devious Cat-kens, and avoid checkmate at all costs. Each puzzle is a step toward building your very own legendary cat kingdom. Will your strategy reign supreme? https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/ta-te-wu/cat-s-gambit 🎆 Cat Sudoku: Summer Festival is a fast, satisfying game for 1 to 4 players. Combine the logic of Sudoku with charming, numbered cards as you work to complete a perfect 3x3 grid—no repeats across rows, columns, or colors. It’s a breezy 20-minute experience that’s easy to learn but full of delightful depth. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tatewu/catsudoku-summerfestival If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me directly at [email protected]. Thank you for supporting our games and helping bring more cats and creativity into the world! With gratitude, Ta-Te Wu

Stretch Goal - Placement Token Upgrade!
about 1 year ago – Mon, Mar 24, 2025 at 12:29:42 AM

Dear Backers,

We’re making great progress toward our next stretch goal—upgrading the placement token from a simple cube to a 1" wooden token featuring a printed paw pad design! But we need your help to make it extra special!
Instead of just printing a paw pad on one side, we’re adding a paw design on the other side to make it even more thematic and fun. Our talented artist, Holly Chiu, has created some adorable paw designs, and now it's time for you to help us decide which one to use!

🗳️ Vote for Your Favorite Paw!



We’ve narrowed it down to four fantastic options, and we’d love for you to cast your vote. If you don’t see the poll in this update, please click the link below to make your choice:

https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/ta-te-wu/cat-s-gambit/polls/3578?ref=bk-social-poll-button

Your input means everything to us, and we can’t wait to see which paw design wins! Let’s unlock this stretch goal and make Cat’s Gambit even more purr-fect! 🐾♟️✨

Thank you for your support—let’s keep this momentum going! 🚀

Cheers,
Ta-Te
