Catagrams, a delightful cat-themed word game developed by Ponderosa Games, is the brainchild of two software developers who left the corporate world behind. This indie studio has crafted a serene blend of Scrabble, a cat café, and an art book, resulting in a unique gaming experience.
Catagrams Boasts Beautiful Hand-Drawn Illustrations
At its heart, Catagrams is a word puzzle game adorned with stunning hand-drawn art. Players engage in matching threads and deciphering meaningful words, with each solved puzzle unlocking new, adorable cats. The game offers customizable word lengths and difficulty levels, tailoring the experience to each player's preference.
The cats you unlock are not only unique but also brimming with personality. Each feline has its own quirky traits and favorite pastimes, from sunbathing at the beach to lounging in cozy corners. The customization extends beyond puzzles, allowing players to choose short puzzles for quick brain teasers or engage with daily challenges that bring fresh content every day.
Catagrams also integrates with Game Center, enabling players to track their achievements and showcase their word-solving prowess to friends. Beyond unlocking cats, players can accessorize their feline companions with cute accoutrements, making them even more endearing.

It's truly a game that makes a difference!
