## What is Cats Yakuza?

In this strategic card game, you battle with adorable yet quirky cats!
The rules are similar to mahjongg and poker, with a new tactical sense you'll love!
Even though the rules are simple, the game is surprisingly deep, so the battle of wits and psychological strategies are so fun!

[Rules]
The basic objective is a build stronger three-card hands than your opponent's.

However, cards are dealt one at a time back each round.
In addition, battles can progress simultaneously in multiple locations. 

As a result, the strategy is not so simple as building a single strong hand.
"My opponent's hand seems stronger here, so I'll give up this battle."
"I'll put together a hand that can just barely beat my opponent and hang onto my other cards."
These are just some of the different tactics you can employ!
(*Note: For more information about the rules, see the "How to Play" section  within the game.)

You can also use "special cards" with unique effects to turn the tables!

[Game Modes] 
Includes two different game modes, "Naughty Mode", which is a quick and simple game with more elements of luck, and "Yakuza Mode" which is a more advanced battle of wits challenge that requires more than luck alone to win!

[Online Battle]
Your opponent is another player somewhere in the world!
This game offers unlimited battling against other players all over the world!
It also features a cute cat stamp function for sending messages back and forth! 

[Rates and Rankings]
Features a ranking system: win and your rank goes up, lose and it goes down!
Aim for the top in winning rates and total victories against players all over the world!

[Friend Battles]
We recommend using the friend battles function to play with your friends!
If you invite them to a game, it'll be even more fun!

[Cross-Platform (Cross-Play) Compatible]
You can also play with users on different platforms!
