How:
To introduce A Risk Cat, we use two different formats, depending on whether it is a presentation at a games shop or a board game festival or fair, or a presentation at a bookshop or an organisation.
For games shops and board game events, we introduce the game through a tournament to explain the rules and let people discover the game. We set up simultaneous tables of four to six players, explain the basic game and start playing. The first- and second-placed players from each table then play together using the full rules (click to read them), which are explained before the next round. Depending on the starting number of players, this produces either finalists or a winner. With many players, we can hold a grand final. All finalists receive a copy of the game, and the winner may receive an extra prize if a voucher has been arranged with a games shop. The format can always be adapted to the venue and circumstances.
This format lasts approximately 1½–2 hours.
To help us organise each event, a registration form is available.
For bookshops and organisations interested in the game, we can hold a session explaining how it was created. We introduce the eleven paintings by Octavi Intente, which feature in the game, and tell the stories of the cats, its main characters. The original paintings can be displayed. We finish by explaining the rules and, if there is time and enthusiasm, playing a game.
You can watch the explanatory video of the session.
This format lasts approximately 1–1½ hours.
If you belong to an association, organisation, club, bookshop or shop and would like to host a presentation, contact us at info@ariskcat.cat.
