Trap the cat
Game Overview
Trap the cat is a cat trapping puzzle on a hexagonal board. The cat starts near the center, and you place blocked tiles around it to close every route to the edge. A round ends when the cat has no open path left. The board gives you a small space to study, with each barrier changing the routes that remain.
This cat trapping puzzle with shortest-path movement asks you to read the cat’s next escape route before you commit to a barrier. The cat searches for the shortest available path toward freedom, so a gap on one side can turn a good-looking trap into an open exit. Build the enclosure step by step and keep the remaining paths in view.
The hexagonal grid strategy game with blocked tiles creates more route choices than a square layout. On this hexagon grid puzzle, starting blocked tiles can change from round to round, and the position of the open spaces affects the order in which you close them. One round may reward a direct enclosure. Another may need a route that guides the cat toward a narrower section of the board.
Trap the cat keeps the visual layout clear so you can follow the cat, the barriers, and the remaining exits. A failed round gives you a new board to read and a chance to change the order of your barriers. The puzzle rewards route prediction and territory control through a short, focused loop.
