Pawsum is a fast-paced, interactive card game designed by Trevor Lai. It balances simple, child-friendly matching rules with layers of strategy and physical, party-game interactions The Goal: You race to collect and arrange a specific set of cat and dog cards into rows to win. The Sabotage: You can play Action cards to disrupt your opponents, like making their pets "run away" or forcing them to find a specific animal to unlock a blocked slot. The Action: The game features physical mini-games, most notably the Paw Slap—a fast-paced hand-slapping duel where the winner gets to steal a card from the loser. The Vibe: It balances cute, easy-to-learn mechanics for families with enough tactical backstabbing to keep competitive players engaged.
