Feralis is a dark and brutal plane of existence, populated by numerous tribal races and civilizations in continuous tension between them, under the influence of mysterious and feared archaic deities who are usually called “Rulers”.

The card game Feralis calls the player to impersonate one of these cryptic and extraordinary gods. Governors can make arrangements or dominate creatures that inhabit Feralis and force them into battle against other Rulers.

Power, glory, boredom, it is not clear why these eternal gods continue to confront and murder each other, but no one has the memory of a time when the world of Feralis was not accompanied by the incessant rhythm of the colossal armies they summoned.

In the game, the players have a deck of creatures, a Ruler they impersonate, and a series of Godlike Skills assigned to the Ruler. The creature cards have 2 sides, a "Call" side and an "Awakening" one. To put them on the battlefield you have to wait for their waiting cost in turns. Once your creatures on the "Call" side are defeated they will come back in the "Awakening" form. You can also play them directly in the "Awakening" form but you will miss the opportunity to see their "Call" form.

Your main resource is time, you have to put the creature at the right moment to create a powerful combo between your creature. You can reduce the time cost with a limited resource the Catalyst. You have a short amount that you can use also during your opponent's turn to unlock your creature in the Incubator area.



You can support your creatures with your Godlike skills, powerful events that need time to be ready but they can turn the tide of battle. This Skills they will recharge once used.

Use all these resources wisely and have no mercy, your opponents will not.

Schrödinger’s Cats is a pseudo-scientific card game of strategic uncertainty for 2-6 players. A fast, fun game of bluffing, deduction, and cute cat pictures!

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
Uncertainty didn’t kill the cat, but that doesn’t mean it’s not dead. Dr. Erwin Schrödinger and Werner Heisenberg taught us that. We’ve all heard about the cats in boxes experiment and maybe we're even curious about the results -- but attempting such an experiment would be INSANE in real life! Now you can try your hand at challenging the uncertainty principle without risking the lives of innocent kittens or exposure to radioactive particles! Awww!

In Schrödinger’s Cats players run experiments, form hypotheses, and try to one-up each other’s research. Players take on the role of a Cat Physicist such as Albert Felinestein, Sally Prride, or Neil deGrasse Tabby! Using their special ability to help prove their hypothesis, or at least debunk someone else’s, each cat physicist tries to determine the minimum number of alive cats, dead cats, or empty boxes across all the boxes in Schrödinger’s lab.



You may not be certain your hypothesis is valid, but if you love cats, science, and games you will be certain to love the Schrödinger's Cats card game!
