Ninja Cat Cucumber ATTACK! Game
Ninja Cat Cucumber ATTACK! is a fast-paced, high energy, slap-happy game where you compete against opponents to win control of the deck.
Battle ninja cats and slap cucumbers all the way to victory!
Based off those popular cat vs. cucumber viral videos (you know you’ve seen them), a game was born. This time the cats fight back as they battle each other. But watch out for those sneaky cucumbers!
