The Ultimate Apocalypse-Ending Cat Co-op Boss Battler

Welcome to Apocalypse Cats, a strategic, cooperative, double-deckbuilding boss battler where 1–6 counterculture cat heroes throw down in epic cartoon boss fights against modern real-life monsters (like toxic social media and mass consumerism) in a witty, fast-paced, tactical showdown that hits like a hairball cannon.

Scratch the Apocalypse. Try not to cough up a hairball doing it.

Two Decks + One Cat = Unlimited Ways to Cause Problems.

Each Cat grows two deck engines at once: 

  • A full-sized Skill deck for your core attacks, defenses, and weird hero moves
  • A compact Modifier deck to twist those Skills in real time into chains, buffs, and brutal pivots

Mix, match, and stack your plays into endless, satisfying combos.

The Battlefield Reads like a Comic and Plays Even Faster

Eliminate exhausting book-keeping and rules lawyering. Combat happens on a 3x3 grid that’s quick, intuitive, and gets to the action without needing to constantly reference the rulebook. 

9 Lives + An Undying Ghost Form means No Player Elimination

Cats have nine lives. Apocalypse Cats has a tenth. Hit zero health and you flip into ghost form, staying in the fight with assists and reactions. No bench-warming. No elimination. No staring at your phone while your friends finish the round. Your spectral claws still matter.

Everyone gets a chance to Quarterback

Every round, leadership shifts whether the player is ready or not. The Lead Cat token passes clockwise, passing the role of the acting captain and becoming the new target of enemy focus. This means: It is cooperative chaos with guardrails that actually work.

  • Leadership rotates naturally
  • The team stays coordinated without one player hijacking the whole plan
  • Every round feels like a new angle on the same brawl

Built to be the kind of co-op you actually want

  • 1-6 Players: Solo brain-burn or full clowder mayhem with teamwork at the center.
  • Constant Engagement: Out-of-turn reactions and assists keep everyone involved even when it is not “your” moment.
  • Clean Strategy: Deep choices every turn with smooth flow, so the table energy stays high and the pacing stays sharp.

A Secret Cat War under Human Noses (and inside your furniture)

Hidden under human reality is Domexus, the world cats protect with every seemingly random growl, pounce at a wall, and item swiped off a table. Pestilence pushes in from Pesteroth, sending twisted lieutenants of corruption, envy, wrath, and gluttony to rot everything they touch. Your heroes are a defiant clowder: hippie healer, punk rocker, drag queen rogue, and more. To humans, it is “mischief.” To Domexus, it is frontline defense.
