## About Tooth and Tail

Tooth and Tail is a 2017 real-time strategy game developed by Pocketwatch Games featuring deck-building mechanics for unit selection, where players lead armies of anthropomorphic animals including flame-throwing Boars, mustard gas-lobbing Skunks, and paratrooper-puking Owls in campaigns with unique heroic objectives. The game utilizes faction-locked units, dynamic map generation, and resource scarcity to create challenging gameplay that reviewers describe as atmospheric, dark, and whimsical, with a darkly-whimsical art style and haunting soundtrack that has earned it an 80 on Metacritic. Players highlight the luck-driven unit draws as a key mechanic that forces creative adaptation during matches, while the short replayable sessions make it ideal for couch co-op with local multiplayer support. The game is playable on Steam Deck and holds an 83% positive rating from over 1,700 Steam reviews.
