	~~'''The Isle~~ of ~~Cats: Duel''~~' is ~~a competitive~~ tile-placement ~~game for '''2''' players, where players rescue cats and place them~~ on ~~their~~ boat ~~to complete lessons and score points~~.		Hoping to rescue the legendary cats of the island before the arrival of the sinister Vesh, you navigate your boats to the shore. You must bring as many cats as possible on board, group them into families, and learn valuable lessons to optimize your boat's layout. This is achieved through clever resource management and tile-placement puzzles on your personal boat board.

	== Goal of the Game ==		== Goal of the Game ==
	~~The player with~~ the most '''points''' ~~from rescued cats~~, ~~completed lesson cards~~, and ~~discovered~~ treasures ~~at the end of the game wins~~.		Collect the most '''points''' by rescuing cat families, completing lessons, and gathering treasures, while avoiding penalties for rats and empty rooms.
