CatutO!

Players manage a row of four face-down cards, secretly viewing only their edge cards at the start. Each turn, choose to either take a visible card from the discard pile or draw blindly from the deck. When drawing, decide whether to keep the new card by swapping it with one of your hidden cards, or discard it immediately. The challenge lies in remembering which edge cards you've seen while strategically improving your hand through careful swaps. Special action cards add tactical options: peek at your own cards, steal from opponents, or force unwanted exchanges. The round ends when a confident player shouts "MEOW!" believing they have the lowest total. All other players get one final turn before revealing cards and counting points. The player with the fewest points wins the round. Multiple rounds determine the overall winner. Success requires balancing memory of your known edge cards, risk assessment, and timing your final call. —description from the publisher
