About This Game

Trap the Cat is a simple yet engaging puzzle game where the players goal is to trap a cat by strategically placing barriers on a grid. The challenge lies in anticipating the cats movements and blocking its escape route before it can get away.

Objective: The main objective is to stop the cat from escaping by clicking on hexagonal tiles on the grid, turning them into barriers that block the cats movement.

Cats Movements: The cat moves one tile at a time, trying to find an open path to the edge of the grid. It moves after each of the players turns, making it crucial to plan ahead and close off paths in a way that traps the cat.

Strategy: Players need to predict the cats moves and create a strategy to gradually surround it. The challenge is balancing the placement of barriers to ensure the cat doesnt slip through an open gap.
