Bad Press has been circulating about The Bearcats lately, as it seems each birdsong the forest itself teems with reports of your shady power grabbing. If only you could redraw history itself…
That’s where your newspaper “The Daily Swarm” comes in, soon your hapless opponents will have their hands teeming with Propaganda cards from your own special deck. (Swarm cards are shuffled into the chosen deck upon setup, and can be drawn as if they are normal cards).
They offer opponents simple abilities, but give powerful effects in your own grubby claws such as removing cards from play entirely.
Since all discarded Propaganda Cards soon make their way to your hand, you must act quickly to curate your own swatch of propaganda. Use them wisely to quash the Press Tokens from each birdsong, or your opponents may soon be left to deal with your dirty laundry.

Features:
- original deck of cards, each with original artwork
- unique "card banishing" mechanic
- action economy based on a deck you (and your opponents) build during the game.
Gameplay:
-bearcats mainly score by battling and removing their own "bad press tokens" that generate each birdsong, failure to do so gives opponents easy battle points
-bearcats will try to curate their hand by removing useless cards like "Bearcats bane" and keeping powerful cards! (Giving points, banishing cards etc)
-opponents can hold onto swarm cards to keep the Bearcats away (or put them in the retinue, decree etc), or cash then in for helpful actions
-bearcats can even remove crucial cards from the game! (They remove any cards in play, including from an opponents hand, from the decree, from their own hand, from the outcast...)
The deck is BIG, good luck downloading everything!
