Cool cats, crabby cats—you’ll match all kinds of kitties in Replicat. Turn over two cutely illustrated cards, and if they match, they’re removed from the board. Didn’t find a pair? Keep flipping! The fun gets frisky when you add powered-up cats to your deck, which might boost your points, stay turned over, or automatically find their match. Can you claw your way through rule-bending boss rounds?

What we love: Building a better deck. Beating bosses earns essences that power up cards, and collecting curios—like the emergency button, which grants 10 extra moves when you have one turn left—fluff up your odds of winning.

Quick tip: Mind the gap! At the end of a turn, new cards tumble into the empty spaces you’ve created—and they always come in pairs. It’s an easy way to quickly suss out the location of matching batches.
