MANITOU SPRINGS, Colo. โ Feb. 6, 2025 โ Ponderosa Gamesโ Catagrams has launched on the App Store and Google Play! A word game with cat-titude, Catagrams is FREE and features beautiful drawings, a hearty challenge, and a seriously chill atmosphere for puzzle aficionados.
Some felines in Catagrams enjoy adventure and world travel, while others prefer snoozing on a sleepy summer day. Picture frames abound, but there are missing pieces! Players are tasked with matching threads and creating words โย unlocking hand-drawn illustrations and fashionable accessories for each cat. โDaily Puzzles,โ which are included in the base game, keep things fresh and are sure to challenge even the sharpest (clawed) of wordsmiths.
But wait, thereโs more! If players go for the Treat Package in-app purchase, theyโre not only helping out the developer but also giving a boost to cat rescue organizations nationwide. Yes, 50% of the proceeds from the Treat Package in-app purchase will go to rotating, cat-focused orgs previously vetted by Ponderosa Games โ starting with Happy Cats Haven.
โI grew up in Colorado and have always enjoyed reading, gaming, doodling, and travel,โ says Tisa Foster, owner and co-founder of Ponderosa Games. โNeedless to say, Iโm also a word nerd and absolutely love cats! In addition to programming, I created all the art in the game โ so you could say this is a true labor of love. Catagrams is all of my favorite things wrapped up in one neat, handcrafted package.โ
โAs a programmer and UI designer, I can say that Catagrams is legitimately fun to play,โ adds John Burak, co-founder of Ponderosa Games. โTisa came up with the idea while brainstorming game concepts, and it quickly rose to the top of the list because it combines our love of cats and word games. Itโs been quite the adventure! We started with a cardboard proof-of-concept and could tell it was fun. Once the full play experience came together, we found ourselves playing it outside of work without even thinking. Thatโs when we knew it was more than just a cute game; itโs a soothing and addicting timeout from the world! Weโre really excited to share it with everyone.โ
