Trap the Cat is a classic puzzle game that challenges players to outsmart a clever feline by strategically placing obstacles to prevent its escape. The game's objective is to confine the cat within a defined space, typically a grid-like arena, by strategically placing blocks or other barriers. The cat, known for its agility and cunning, will attempt to maneuver around and through these obstacles to reach the edge of the playing area.
Players take turns placing blocks or barriers on the grid, trying to corner the cat and limit its movements. The cat, controlled by the computer or another player, moves around the grid, looking for opportunities to escape.
Some variations introduce special powers or abilities that can assist the player or hinder the cat. Others have different grid layouts or introduce additional obstacles, such as holes or moving platforms.
The game's easy-to-understand rules and simple objective make it suitable for players of all ages and skill levels. The challenge of outrunning the cat and preventing its escape provides a satisfying mental workout and a sense of achievement.
