About Us
We’re a small family business with a passion for card, board, and dice games. Oh Crud® the card and dice game was our first self-published game, launched in late 2021.
Cat-In-8™ is our second creation, launching through our very first Kickstarter! Inspired by our love for gaming and our playful cat, Eddie (or Eduardo, when he’s feeling fancy), we’ve crafted a game we can’t wait to share with the world.
Join us as we bring our love for strategy, chaos, and cats to life!
